T-S 13J35.10

Recto/verso: recto and verso
Letter from Yaʿaqov b. Yiṣḥaq, in Aleppo, to his son Yiṣḥaq b. Yaʿaqov, in Fustat. Dating: c. 1030 CE (based on Frenkel's assessment). In Hebrew and Judaeo-Arabic. In a beautiful scholarly hand and excellent style. His son was evidently a tailor. The letter lists items that Yaʿaqov has sent (including the wool garments "buqyār" and "mayzar") and other matters. Ash(mūn?) and Abū ʿĪsā are mentioned. See T-S 13J20.16, in which the same writer tells his son about his severe illness. On verso there are Arabic-script writing exercises (each letter of the alphabet written with different letters after it).
