A. O. C.) syr. 92 (olim Notre-Dame des Semences 70), and with Mardin, Chaldean Cathedral 449 (olim Diyarbakır / Scher 25) — a manuscript containing a part of the penultimate treatise in Dominican Friars of Mosul 907. Also, systematizing our observations on the content and style of compilation of Mingana syr. 544 and Dominican Friars of Mosul 907, we prove that both are autographs of Simon the Persecuted, whose direct authorship for the treatises in Dominican Friars of Mosul 907 we refute and assert that they were created by an author named «mar Isaac» and may belong to the «Fifth Collection» of Isaac the Syrian. In this regard, we specify the problematization of the question and establish a direct connection between Simon’s autographs and the manuscript containing the «Second Collection» of Isaac, Bishop of Nineveh, — Bodl. Lib. syr. e. 7 whose dating was also reliably clarified.
