JRL Gaster heb. ms 1772/3

Letter from Yehosef ha-Kohen Av Bet Din b. Shelomo Gaon. In Hebrew. Dated: Shevat 1359 Seleucid, which is Jan/Feb 1048 CE. May be a fragment of a letter requesting assistance for Jerusalem. Written in the lifetime of his father Shelomo b. Yehuda. Gil says that the letters wreathing the signature are presumably the initials of a verse, but he did not locate the verse.

Editor: Ed. Moshe Gil, "Palestine During the First Muslim Period (634–1099): Additions, Notes, and Corrections‎" (in Hebrew), Teuda‎ 7 (1991). Transcription awaiting digitization.
