Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
SIJ 32: zʿm for ʿzm; hgbs¹ for ʾgrs¹
Commentary
There is no sign on the photograph of Winnett's ʿ between the z and the m of the first name. The first letter of the second name is ʾ on the photograph. The r and b are clearly distinguished. The s¹ of Ms¹k is damaged but can be made out. However there does not seem to be a y at the end of the text so this may not be a nisba.
