Gregory of Cyprus (East Syriac/Nestorian; first half of the 7th century) was a Persian monk from Susiana, who spent some time in Cyprus before returning to a monastery on Mount Izla.

He wrote three letters, and seven treatises on the monastic life. Only one treatise, On holy contemplation (theoria), which is translated in Syriac as Divine Vision, has been published, with a Latin translation.
