Is this a klaf for writing a mezuzah? (Inferring from the presence of the name.)

@Monica Cellio I think it was meant to be a mezuzah, but there wasn't enough room for the last paragraph.

Interesting! @Dani, please feel free to write an answer here that draws from what you found there (with proper attribution of course).

@Monica would it not be cleaner at this point to just delete this post and nominate the crossposted Mi Yodeya post for import? There's no value added in summarizing MY posts, which are already usually summaries of primary sources, when you can just bring the whole thing over.

@AA import is a little glitchy right now, so while I'd like to get that fixed, the last batch introduced a lot of database weirdnesses that had to be cleaned up so I'd rather not. I'd rather bring it over, but in the absence of better import, I'd rather have the answer here than not.
