Recto: letter in Hebrew addressed to Hodaya b. Jesse the Exilarch from Damascus, who visited Egypt in the 1230s to solicit money from the communities there and overstayed his welcome.

From other documents we know that Hodaya spent a lot of time in Alexandria, and this letter may have been sent to him there.
