Description

Unidentified (documentary?) text in Hebrew with phrases such as "a generation that has no thorns," "in the letter/document of Damascus," and something forged (מזוייף). Seems to have signatures such as Faraḥ b. Yosef b. Khāliṣ(?) and Ṭayyib al-Ḥakīm. The name Faraḥ b. Yosef also appears at 180 degrees preceded by איך (so a phrase from a legal document?) and followed by the name Netanʾel on the next line.
