Notes:
Corrections made during initial copying, addenda found in margin (where vocalized) and between lines.
Fol. 1 contains the middle of the special, fourth blessing of the Festival ʹAmidah. But contains no text that would specify which Festival. Its proximity to fol. 2, instructions in Judeo-Arabic on Sefirat ha-omer, indicates that it is most likely for Passover. The counting of the ʻOmer recorded here was initially in Hebrew (as is the common practice), but was corrected in secondary writing to Aramaic: חד יומא בעומרא.
Forms part of: Cairo Genizah Collection.
