黎巴嫩 (Lebanon) 村庄,位于贾乌兹河 (Nahr al-Jaouz) 右岸,距巴特伦 (Batrun) 约 (ca.) 15 公里 (km.)。

Village in Lebanon, on the right bank of the Nahr al-Jaouz, ca. 15 km. from Batrun. Ruins near the present agglomeration mark the site of an abandoned village with a small church known as the Chapel of Saydat Kharāʾib (Our Lady of the Ruins). A fire caused the half-dome of the apse to be covered with a layer of soot, hiding a depiction of the Deisis Vision. The nave’s fragmented decoration consists of a tonsured St. Domatius on the north wall, and a fragmented Nativity scene opposite him. The estimated date of these murals is the first half of the 13th cent.

黎巴嫩 (Lebanon) 的一座村庄,位于贾乌兹河 (Nahr al-Jaouz) 右岸,距巴特伦 (Batrun) 约 (ca.) 15 公里 (km)。现有聚居地附近的废墟标记着一处被废弃村庄的遗址,那里有一座小教堂,被称为哈拉伊布圣母小堂 (Chapel of Saydat Kharāʾib),意为废墟圣母 (Our Lady of the Ruins)。一场大火导致后殿的半穹顶覆盖了一层煤烟,掩盖了一幅代求异象 (Deisis Vision) 的描绘。中殿残存的装饰包括北墙上一位剃发的圣多马提乌斯 (St. Domatius),以及他对面一幅残破的诞生场景。这些壁画的估计年代为 13 世纪 (13th cent.) 上半叶。
