Description

Letter from the congregation of Malta addressed to Moshe Levi b. Zakkār. (Same addressee as in T-S NS 31.2.) In Judaeo-Arabic. Dating: Perhaps 15th century, based on the hand (1492 CE at the latest, pre-expulsion). Fragmentary (only the right side is preserved). It is difficult to discern any of the subject matter. The form נחון is used for نحن. T-S NS 31.16 was identified by Ben Outhwaite and Amir Ashur. Join: Alan Elbaum.
