ThNSSMAS: 14: "ʿrg" for ʿb{d} ThNS 5: "ʿrd" for ʿb{d}
Commentary
It seems most likely that the second letter of the patronym should be read as a b as it is very similar to the other b's in the text. The next letter is doubtful. There is a deeply cut curve which is not closed and there are possible traces of a shallow line forming it into a d.
