Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
SIT: gby ? or perhaps ẓby for the first name. WH comm. 3575: hys¹r for hys¹l. JMAA VIII p. 10: ẓry for the first name.
Commentary
The last letter is a straight line in the copy. The photograph A:2461 is probably not of this inscription unless the copy is very inaccurate. The inscription the photograph probably reads l rb bn hys¹r.
