Commentary

Context: LMIB prayer with divine epithet + sacred space + imperative verb

Divine epithet + sacred space + imperative verb = prayer triad. All three words SPECULATIVE but liturgical structure is coherent.

GORILA IV 115: ]PU₂-RE-JẠ · KỌ-MỤ · RỤ-DI[. PU₂ is damaged at the fracture; PU₂-RE-JA and RU-DI are whole; more signs may have followed RU-DI.
