Language Note:

Judeo-Arabic and Hebrew. Hebrew

Notes:

Hebrew lead word signified before and after by sof pasuḳ.

Missing from lower edge is XXXVIII 25- XXXIX 2.

From a Judeo-Arabic translation of Genesis XXIV 58-XXV 17, neither that of Saʻadia Gaon nor that of Japheth ben ʻAli. A Hebrew lead-word is provided at the beginning of each verse.

There are a few errant readings, which may stem from ignorant or flexible translation, such as אבי סימאך (=אחיסמך) (XXV 23); compared to the common translations, this one includes a greater degree of hermeneutic embellishments; at XXXVIII 24 is an article on the measure of a ככר.

The Oxford fragment ends with a colophon identifying the name of the work as פתרון ואלה שמות, and stating the intention to start פתרון ספר ויקרא.

Forms part of: Cairo Genizah Collection.

This appears to be from the same ms. as Oxford Bodleian Heb. B.10 fol. 73 (Cowely: 2833, 38), which is the final folio of the codex (or at least of Exodus). Probably no more than one folio is missing between them.
