How to Search

General Search

Use keywords or phrases in any language to return matching or similar results across all fields. Arabic script searches will return both Arabic and Judaeo-Arabic transcription content.

Regular Expression Search

Use Hebrew or Arabic script to find precise matches in the transcriptions. See How to Search page for advanced use cases.

Cheat sheet:

  • If you're looking for a word with one missing letter, use a period. Two missing letters, use two periods or {2}. Increase the number in the curly brackets to increase the number of characters, or insert a range with a comma in between, ex. {0,5}.
  • If you don't know how many characters are missing, use .*.
  • If you know which characters you want, use square brackets to find multiple spellings, ex. [יו] for yud or vav.

    The writer reports that Ibn al-Yamanī rejected the authority of Avraham Maimonides (r. 1205–1237 CE), while he himself vigorously defended the Nagid. The writer gives a blow by blow report of his argument with Ibn al-Yamanī. The writer adds that the ḥaver R. Eliezer was sick (mutamarriḍ) at the time the letter was written (or: at the time he wrote his letter). […] On verso there are several undeciphered lines in Arabic script, mentioning al-Rayyis Abū l-Faḍl, possibly with some Greek/Coptic numerals, and possibly referring to fevers and days of crisis (buḥrān).

    Legal fragment. Very faded. Hand of Mevorakh b. Natan he-Ḥaver, whose name also appears in l.2. […] The remaining lines are probably all the summary of this other document. The date is given (Heshvan 14[..]) followed by the location (probably Fustat Miṣrayim), then parties (the name Ṣedaqa appears), then acknowledgment of a debt. A woman's name Sitt al-[...] may appear in the bottom line.

  26. 976LetterT-S Ar.18(1).137

    Letter from Manṣūr b. Sālim, in Alexandria, to his son Abū Najm, who has gone on an adventurous journey or had run away to the army. […] Abū Najm's mother perishes on account of his actions, and her vision is fading (alternate readings are possible, but "inḍarra baṣaruhā" seems likely as inḍarra derives from the same root as ḍarīr/maḍrūr, both meaning "blind"). Several other letters by the same man are known, all of them either addressed to Manṣūr's contacts in Fustat, asking them to help him find his son, or directly to his son (like this one).

  27. 977Legal documentT-S K25.240.49

    Mainly in Arabic script with some Hebrew script. Al-Ḥazzan al-Makīn (=Abū l-Majd?) is to give the bearer something for the holiday. […] On recto there is a small piece of a letter in Arabic script from Bū l-Faḍl (torn up and reused for this order). T-S K25.240 consists of small written orders, partly in Hebrew and partly in Arabic script, for monthly payments, made out of the rent-revenue from the pious foundation (waqf) 'Compound of the Poor' or from the pious foundation made by the physician al-Muhadhdhab.
