Interpretation
- Commentary
- The name ṣbḥl has so far been found nowhere else in Safaitic. The letter read as r resembles the b's of the text and it is possible it should be read as such although it would be difficult to suggest a translation. The letter read as the sixth l is rather shorter than other l's in the text.
