Description

Letter referring to a courtier, ‘the honoured Sar’. Neatly and closely written. Mentions Abū Khayr Efrayim b. Yeshaʿyahu. The letter is written both in the first person plural (the plural of majesty, since it sends greetings ‘from our son’, ומן החמוד שלנו) and singular, and is addressed to the second person singular. It is probably a geonic letter of the mid-11th century. Verso contains Hebrew jottings in a different hand. (Information from CUDL)
