Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
SIJ 270: yṯʿ for (ʾ)ṯʿ.
Commentary
In Harding's copy the last name is ṣṯʿ where the ṣ almost certainly represents an original ʾ with one of the forks closed by a later addition. However when the copy was transposed to SIJ this letter was turned into a y. Winnett notes that “in No. 253 the last name is spelt ʾṮʿ.”
