Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus: HaNSB 307: mgyr for mʿyr. Translation of ʾnfs¹ "graves" (qubūr).
Commentary: Lane 883a: daʿawtu ʿalayhi "I prayed against him or cursed him". The script of this text has mixed features - see also HaNSB 306, 308, 310. The ʾ of ʾnfs¹ is most likely a definite article rather than an indefinite plural form. This is one of the few texts of which the author expresses affiliation with two lineages, and the only one, so far, to join them with w.

Special Letter Forms: ḏ with hooked tail; r's small deep curves; n's dots; s² "S" shape.
