Description

Letter/petition in Arabic script. Seems like a letter of appeal for charity and alludes to the door/gate of the synagogue. Written in a chancery-esque hand. Reused for a Hebrew literary text by the same scribe with crude handwriting who reused many Arabic-script documents (see FGP join finder). Needs further examination.
