Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 194) commented: "To the right of KJA 54. Part of the z is covered by an abrasion as are the tops of the b and ʾ. The first d and the first n are not as deeps as the other letters of the text. No letters are legible after the ʾ. The name zdn is not in Harding 1971, see Index a for other occurrences of the name. zdn bn ʾġnt occurs in KJC 740".
