Commentary

Philological commentary

n1	sic!, although elsewhere nāśmi
n2	The scribe has accidently written 'świ', but corrected himself.
n3	The scribe first wrote 'tni', but corrected himself.
n4	The meaning of this word is unclear.
n5	This word also occurs in THT 2897. From the context, it appears to be some sort of grain. Strangely, outside of the secular corpus, the same word appears in the medical manuscripts (W 10, W 11, W 12) as mäśśakene. It is obviously a loan word, which could explain this kind of strange fluctuation in spelling.
