Description

Recto: the end of a calligraphically-written letter with many signatories, including Sahl b. Mevasser and ʿAmram b. Shabbat. Possibly a letter of introduction, but only the closing blessings are preserved. Verso: Hebrew text, very badly worn and faded. There are many biblical allusions and references to Egypt. Possibly a sermon. (Information from CUDL)
