The Book of Hierotheus has been attributed to Stephen bar-Ṣūdhailē.

The Syriac text has been taken mainly from British museum ms. Add. 7189, which contains the whole of the Book of Hierotheus and the Prolegomena and Commentary of Theodosius of Antioch. In the present work the text of the Book of Hierotheus is separated from the commentary in which, in the manuscript, it is imbedded, and specimens only of the Prolegomena and Commentary of Theodosius are published, and not the whole; to this have been added some extracts from the writings of Bar Hebræus (mainly from British museum ms. Oriental 1017) and a few specimens of the original work of the scholiast of the Harvard ms. (Semitic museum no. 4009)
