Description

Letter in Arabic script. There is also some Hebrew mixed in; "the covenant" (البريث) is mentioned in recto line 1, likely as part of an oath. The sender mentions transactions and dialogue between himself and Abū l-Ḥasan [...] al-Wakīl. On verso, mainly conveys greetings to and from various people, including the head of the Yeshiva (Raʾs al-Mathība) who sends a message. Needs further examination.
