Kfar Tab (West Syriac diocese)

The main primary source for the Syriac Orthodox bishops of Kfar Tab is the record of episcopal consecrations appended to Volume III of the Chronicle of the Syriac Orthodox patriarch Michael the Syrian (1166–99).

In this Appendix Michael listed most of the bishops consecrated by the Syriac Orthodox patriarchs of Antioch between the ninth and twelfth centuries.

Twenty-eight Syriac Orthodox patriarchs sat during this period, and in many cases Michael was able to list the names of the bishops consecrated during their reigns, their monasteries of origin, and the place where they were consecrated.

Four Jacobite bishops of Kfar Tab are mentioned in the lists of Michael the Syrian.

[1] The diocese of Kfar Tab seems to have lapsed before the end of the twelfth century.
