Commentary
There is quite a large gap between the second bn and the name ʾlhnʾ. The seventh letter from the end in the copy is a n and the fourth letter from the end is a f but it seems more likely that they are a mistake of the copyist. It is possible that the n should be interpreted as extraneous and the f should be restored as a r cf. Jas 154 and 159.2.
