Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 437) commented: "For texts of simple authorship introduced by w, see Ch.4.A.3. It is interesting that ʿbdlg (Nab. ʿbdʾlg etc. and cf. modern al-Jī near Petra, see KJC 205 and Ch.5.A.1) is from a tribe with the name gy which most probably has the same derivation. The name ʾfl bn ʿbdlg occurs in KJC 205 and the two texts on this rock are possibly written by father and son".
