Delete. Despite tons of results about Abraham Malpan, I'm not finding evidence that this is an encyclopedically notable concept. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 20:23, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I've found a few references (such as [1] [2]) but they say little more than that this is a Syriac term for teacher. I'm not sure if some article about teachers could discuss this term with a redirect there (keeping history), or if it should just be deleted. power~enwiki (π, ν) 19:25, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
