DISCUSSION: Hidalgo-Chacón Díez 2016: 128, for the divine name Ḏġbt.
- Commentary
-
Line 3: The verb ʾẓll means "he performed the ẓll-ceremony", the exact nature of which we do not know. Usually, but not always, this verb is followed by the noun h-ẓll meaning "the ẓll-ceremony". Thus, ʾẓll and ʾẓll h-ẓll both mean "he performed the ẓll-ceremony".
