Textual Notes
Edges are 1.2cm apart from the fold crease.
Line 1. The verb √פתח “to open” is mostly attested in contracts and Ahiqar, while the Egyptian proper name Ptaḥ is found mostly in the Hermopolis letters.
Verso, line 1. The final letter is either a י, producing אחי “my brother” but compared to the י on line two it is slightly lower on the line and more curved. Hence I read ת with reservation.
