since also LIT5550MiracleBartos narrates precisely of the Apostle Matthias from Bartos being imprisoned and liberated by Mary some disambiguation here would be helpful, too, as to how the two are different.

I understand - but the stories are essentially very different. LIT5550MiracleBartos is a very short Miracle of Mary. Matthias is "as student from Bartos in Egypt". It was surely inspired by the the longer version, but it is a very different story.

Whereas LIT7886MMBartosCy is a very long and extensive story, Matthias is one of the Disciples of Jesus, and the story takes place in Bartos (Parthia in the Levant). We could add to this entry: "The text was translated on request by Emperor Dāwit II PRS3429DawitII from Arabic in the year 1400."

Can we add in the abstract precisely this? "a shorter version of the story also circulates as LIT5550MiracleBartos" or something like that? The relations are not visible immediately, and it is important that the cataloguers when looking for a miracle of Mary with Matthias in Bartos know which ID of the two to insert. Thank you!

A related, but very short Miracle, is found in LIT5550MiracleBartos. This draws details from both LIT7886MMBartosCy and LIT1201Bartos albeit changing the details of the Miracle narrative.

prison cell, and he is released. This magic prayer was taught to her by Jesus. The text was translated on request by
