These Syriac terms can be translated by “being” or “essence”, but also by “substance”. This observation leads us to propose the comparison with the Greek term <i>ousia</i>, taking into account many difficulties raised by its uses in theological discourse. The article is devoted to the analysis of the uses of the terms <i>ītutā</i> and <i>ītyā </i>- by Ephrem and by Bardaisan - in their different ways of describing the divine essence. This comparison reveals the peculiarities of the two systems of thought and also their connections with the Greek philosophical doctrines.
