Description

Fragment of a document, primarily comprising names, concerning a matter that involved 'the synagogue of the Palestinians.' Those mentioned in the text include: Yosef \'the welfare official\' (ha-parnas), Rabbi Yeshua, Shelomo ha-parnas bar Nethanel, and 'his honor, greatness and holiness, our master and teacher Efrayim,' probably referring to Efrayim ben Shemarya, leader of the Palestinian community in Fustat during the first half of the eleventh century. No date. (Information from Arnold Franklin and S. D. Goitein, Mediterranean Society, 1:293, 2: 58, 66, 71, et passim.)
