Samuel Poznański, The Arabic Commentary of Abu Zakariya Yaḥya (Judah ben Samuel) ibn Bal‘am on the Twelve Minor Prophets, https://biblia-arabica.com/bibl/6BXC2E2N, https://www.zotero.org/groups/biblia_arabica/items/6BXC2E2N, https://www.zotero.org/groups/538215/items/6BXC2E2N, The Jewish Quarterly Review, 1924, 1-53, 15, On ibn Bal‘am’s commentary on the Minor Prophets. In his footnotes to the edited text of Ibn Balʿam’s commentary Poznański sporadically cites the anonymous reworking of Yefet b. Eli’s Judaeo-Arabic translation of the Latter Prophets in Ms. Hunt. 206 of the Bodleian Library (per those portions edited by Heisz https://biblia-arabica.com/bibl/JR39UDLB, Klein https://biblia-arabica.com/bibl/TP5YI7J7, Friedmann https://biblia-arabica.com/bibl/IGJ5MT8M, and Schröter https://biblia-arabica.com/bibl/2EEXHZ9V https://biblia-arabica.com/bibl/DVM2SEFS). On the later identification of this Ms. with Yefet’s work see, inter alios, P. Birnbaum’s 1942 edition of Yefet on Hosea https://biblia-arabica.com/bibl/34RLRYC5 and E. Schlossberg’s 2000 Pe‘amim article https://biblia-arabica.com/bibl/NY3EPQ72.
