Description

Recto: Letter in the hand of Ṭoviyya b. ʿEli. In Judaeo-Arabic. Presumably addressed to Natan b. Shelomo ha-Kohen, Ṭoviyya's main correspondent and the person who reused verso for legal records. Dating: Probably shortly before Elul 1141 Seleucid, which is 1130 CE. Ṭoviyya extends congratulations on "the great happiness" that God has granted; he asks for advice on something; and he sends regards to "al-Segulat."
