ℹ️ About

The Syriac Harklean Obelus (U+070B) is a critical critical-mark used in scholarly editions of Syriac texts, specifically associated with the Harklean version of the New Testament. It serves as a marginal or inline annotation to mark passages of doubtful authenticity or variations in the Greek source. Technically, it is a non-mirrored punctuation mark with an Arabic Letter (AL) bidirectional class, ensuring proper placement within Right-to-Left (RTL) text flows.
