Description

Writing practice, consisting of Genesis 1:1-5, vocalised with Tiberian vowels in the lines 1-2 only. The text breaks off after בקר in Genesis 1:5, where a cruder hand continues with what seems to be a name, מוסאחר אבולחסן (with originally non-final nun corrected to final form), Musaḥḥar Abū l-Ḥasan. There are repetitions from the text written inverted on recto, and more biblical passages (Genesis 1:1; Exodus 1:1; Psalms 1:1) on verso and in the margins of recto. (Information from CUDL.)
