Rabulas Samosata
Edit ProfileCareer
He learned the Syriac language. Rabulas became an ascetic in the deserts and mountains, and then traveled to the Levant. The Emperor Zeno provided Rabulas with funds to build a monastery in the middle of the mountains (the location of which has not been identified), the construction of which was supervised by Bishop John of Berytus.
Rabulas then went to Constantinople, where the Emperor Anastasius I Dicorus supported the ascetic financially.
Rabulas built more monasteries with these funds.
