Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 442) commented: "On the lower right hand corner of the rock. There is an abrasion before the first ġ. I have restored a n on the basis of the expression ʾn ġr b occurring elsewhere, see Ch.4.E.3. The back of the k is shallower then the rest of the letter. KJC 673a begins directly after the end of this text and it is possible it is a continuation: (w) mġny-- (And) mġny--".
