"I am engaged in publishing the book Berule bedhire, which is the history of our scholars up to the present day. I have sent the manuscript to Qamishli to be printed there in a fine manner. If God helps and the book is completed, I will send you a copy so that you may develop in the Syriac language and gain a complete knowledge of the history of our Aramean authors."
From a letter dated to December 6, 1965 to Dr. Aho Hadodo who lives in Switzerland, in which Dolabani informs him about his translation of the book Berule bdhire on the history of Syriac literature by Patriarch Mor Ignatius Aphrem I Barsoum, and how it is ready and will be published in Qamishli.
Dr. Aho was a high school student in the city of Mardin in the early 1960s, he lived for three years with other students in the bishop's residence with Bishop Mor Yuhanon Dolabani and under his guidance.
