Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Harding & Littmann: wṭs¹- ʿlwʾ rather than ----b wṭs¹ rlw----. DISCUSSION King (1990: 663) commented: "The letters are rather indistinctly hammered. The letter before the w looks more like a b and there is possibly one preceding it. The last four letters were not read by TIJ. The ʿ that occurs in the edition is probably a circle of a g in TIJ 255 and the lwʾ slightly above the present text is probably a separate inscription".
