Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Line 3. Müller, D.H. followed by Winnett & Reed, does not read the r; Jaussen & Savignac read w at the end of this line. DISCUSSION Winnett & Reed (1970: 129) referring to the sign at the end of line 2: 'It is probably a numerical sign indicating the age of the deceased; cf. the form of the Nab. numeral 5'. Jamme (1974: 91) explains that the r is the initial for the second name of S¹dʿlh.
