Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 248) commented: "The l has a horizontal stance. It is possible that the author was going to write the inscription up the face of the rock and then changed his mind but did not bother to change the direction of the letter. For other occurrences of ʿbd bn s¹yr, see Index a".
