מכתב: Moss. V,337.3

תיאור

End of a letter probably from Yefet b. Menashshe to his brother Ḥalfon b. Menashshe. The address is partially preserved: אכי ואלעזיז עלי אבו [סעיד חלפון בן] מנשה נע בן אלקטא[יף]). The last few lines of the letter are also preserved at 180 degrees, referring to somebody's boy (ṣabiyy) known as Abū l-Surūr and requesting to be updated when something arrives (ערפני בוצולהם אן שא אללה). There is an unusual vertical gap bisecting all of the lines, including separating the letters of a single word. Maybe there used to be a pleat in the paper here, which later got unfolded. AA/ASE As of July 2025 this fragment is not conserved and can be seen only in Cambridge.
