Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 261–262) commented: "Written below KJB 40. The m is much shallower than the other letters of the text. For prayers of this type, Ch.4.C.3. The attested examples of these prayers usually have the particle h before the deity’s name and m after it. The rock is worn before the l of lt and it is possible that part of the text has been lost".
