Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
AbWH 2: w ḫr[ṣ] for w ḫr
Commentary
There does not seem to be any justification for restoring a ṣ after the letters ḫr and reading the word ḫrṣ. It is not possible to check the reading from the photocopy of the photograph but if the reading of the letter b after the word qbll is correct it would be unusual in this context.
