Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TRANSLATION Lines 1–2. Jaussen & Savignac: 'Ḥarūṣ Mirʿal (son of) ʿAmmrāʾy'. Line 2. van den Branden: 'the ʿAmmaraʾitic'; Jamme: 'ʿAmm, has seen a vision'. DISCUSSION Grimme 1937: 278.
Commentary
Line 2. If ʿmrʾy was a nisbah (as suggested by van den Branden, see the apparatus criticus) it should be preceded by the article h-. If it is the name of a lineage group it should be preceded by ḏ. The ʾ has its Ancient South Arabian form.
