5599Paraliterary textT-S K21.35
Primary language
Hebrew
Public prayer (mi sheberakh) for a representative of the merchants ("neʾeman ha-soḥarim") named Moshe ha-Kohen in gratitude for his works of charity on behalf of the poor, scholars, synagogues, and yeshivas. The prayer is entirely in Hebrew and mostly formulaic until the final line where a custom wish in Judaeo-Arabic was added after "may God grant all his wishes": that Moshe be reunited with Abū Naṣr his sister's son (mentioned also in T-S Ar.42.213 (PGPID 21145)).

Only the ת 400 numeral is legible without enhanced imaging. Rashīd (Rosetta) is mentioned in line 9, Istanbul in l. 21, and possibly Venice somewhere, but these references may only be describing goods.
