 Three 10th-9th Century B.C.E. Inscriptions From Tel Rehov
It is common with the Aramean use of the form ʿbd, and might be considered to reflect Aramean influence on the Ammonite language (Ahituv 1992: 223).
According to this interpretation, the inscription should be understood as mentioning the name of the sender: from [personal name].
The component ʿm as an ending of a personal name appears in many biblical and other West-Semitic names, for example the biblical names yrbʿm (Jeroboam), rḥbʿm (Rehoboam); ʾlyʿm (an Aramean or Ammonite name; Avigad and Sass 1997: No. 1105), kmšʿm (Moabite; Avigad and Sass 1997: No. 1035), and ʾdnʿm in Samaria ostraca Nos.
