Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
SIJ 104: reads 104.1 104.2 and 104.3 as one text l zbd bn khl bn t---- s²ty yḏkr [sic for ydkr] ---- w ʿd ṣf.
Commentary
This text and 104.2 and 104.3 are written over two faces of the same rock which bears SIJ 105–106. Unfortunately only one face was copied and photographed. The present text starts in large letters on the visible face. The passage from ḏ- ʾl to bṭ which is in small letters below it may be the end of the same text or of another which starts on the hidden face. No n is visible on the photograph between the t of s¹nt and the b of bṭ though a light diagonal scratch crosses the horizontal arm of the t.
