Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 407) commented: "The b and d of the last name are written to the left of the ʿ as there is insufficient space before the edge of the rock to continue the inscription in a line. ḥzbr is not in Harding 1971. See Index a for other occurrences of ḥzbr bn ʿbd".
