- JaS: ʾtrṣ for ʾ{t}rṣ. CSNS p. 82 n. 38: probably ʾḫrṣ should be read for ʾtrṣ. SIAM comm. 35: translation of w ḥrṣ ʿl either "he watched over" or "he was on the look-out on behalf of". JMAA XV p. 92-93: comments on CSNS.
- Commentary
- It is possible that CSNS is correct in reading ʾtrṣ as ʾḫrṣ. The ḍ is two concentric circles.
