The Law Code of Simeon, Bishop of Rev-Ardashir

By Amir Harrak

The Law Code of Simeon of Rev-Ardashir, originally written in Persian, was translated into Syriac by a monk of Bet-Qatraye. The Code's author, possibly the early 7th century Metropolitan mentioned in the letters of Patriarch Iso-yahb III, aims to clarify the origins of the Christian legal system, and to address family matters, including inheritance and the role of slaves.
