I compared the two transcriptions Jim mentioned, and I'm puzzled by
parts of Jack's translation. Is anyone else willing to hazard a
translation? In B-Hebrew transliteration (and * marks a word boundary),
the inscription appears to read,
Ken Penner, M.C.S. (Regent College), M.A. (McMaster)
Ph.D. Student, Religious Studies,
Biblical Field (Early Judaism major)
McMaster University
Hamilton, Canada
