Life

Biba, Mari, Simeon, Papa and Isaac were presbyter confessors of Halsar, a place that could not be identified, killed in the persecution of the Persian king Shapur II.

The Syriac Martyrology of 411 names them in its eastern part, among the "martyr priests" of Persia. No other account of their lives or deaths survives.
