The malkəʾ commemorates the translation of the relics of Tomās (fl. 15th c.), the second abbot of Dabrā Dəmāh (Dimā Giyorgis), and of Takla ʾAlfā (fl. 16th c.), a later abbot. Habtemichael Kidane (2024, p. 338, n. 224; p. 352, n. 267) too hastily assumed that the two saints were Takla ʾAlfā and Takaśta Bərhān, who is mentioned in the text by virtue of his being the founder of the monastery.
