Interpretation

Commentary
The initial l is a long line that continues through the second line of the inscription. The b is not a complete curve; there is a long scratch attached obliquely to the penultimate letter; and final letter is rather small and has an usual stance. For the name ʿbdgʾ compare the names ʿbdg and ʿbdlg in the Hismaic texts TIJ 156 and KJC 205, 647 respectively.
