Abstract (en)

Transcribes, translates, and analyzes seven Greek inscriptions of the 5th and 6th cs., two carved in stone, and five set in mosaics, revealed by archaeological excavations at Khirbet el-Muraṣṣaṣ, Ma`ale Adummim. Notes that the monastery underwent three main stages: its foundation by Martyrius, development under Paul, and extensive reconstruction under Genesius; and that at least five of the inscriptions belong to the last stage.
