The first manuscript is written in Syriac by the Patriarch of the Chaldean Church, announcing his doctrine to the Pope. The other two are written in Arabic by the Metropolitan of the East or the Syriac Catholic Metropolitan, a branch from the Syrian Orthodox church emphasizing on his credibility and loyalty, asking the Pope for his blessings and educational materials. On the other side, the manuscripts illustrate the success of the missionary expedition in its mission in the Levant during this time.</p> ER -
