August 2006 - Edited page to correct name of this monastic community's associated saint to Saint Sabas and linked to Wikipedia article for that saint. Also added reference to the fact that this monastery is called by another name, Santa Saba, especially in an historical context. A web search for convent santa saba or monastery santa saba turns up many old lithographs and photographs of this location, and I first came to the article while reading John Lloyd Stephens Incidents of Travel in Egypt, Arabia Petraea, and the Holy Land wherein the author refers to this community as Santa Saba.
I'm confused about the reference to the Kidron Valley in this article. If you look at the linked Wikipedia article, it says the valley is just outside Jerusalem - but Mar Saba is plainly nowhere near Jerusalem. What's the story here? Are there two valleys of the same name? -- ChrisO ( talk) 00:22, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
How can the monastery have been founded by St. Sabas in 439 when that was the year he was born? - Pennycake ( talk) 11:47, 5 December 2009 (SGT)

Theoctistus of Palestine? Died 451, church built 35 years later. Sabbas was sent by Saint Euthymius to the monastery of Abba Theoctistus, where Sabbas lived until the age of thirty when he left for the desert. Arminden ( talk) 10:30, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
