Interpretation

Commentary
The bottom part of the first letter of the seventh name is covered by later hammering and it is possible that it is an ʾ. The beginning of the narrative has been destroyed by a crude, recently hammered sign. The author has written two connectives, w and f, after the word mẓlm. There is a slight abrasion over the former and it is possible that he realised his mistake and made an attempt to erase it.
