There is no Latin letter "P" in the VMS. This is probably roar with the tail of the r blobbed in or it is a half-k (yes, they do exist) with the loop blobbed in. Either that or the scribe started to write something else, changed it, and it blobbed. Notice how the r in the token two-to-the-right is also blobbed.
Even if it says "Poar", this is clearly not Hebrew and saying that it is the name of a person is a BIG assumption.
First of all the Voynich MS was written in ANCIENT Hebrew, not Latin. But the P shape symbol is very predominate in Old Hebrew and the sound it makes is the "F" sound.....so I believe that the "P" shape was intentional by the author because he also signed his first and last name under his image in Folio 73v.; where it looks to me to be "Poar Lentz"; now if that isn't a Jewish name, if I ever heard one! Probably pronounced, "Far Lents".
I am telling you the truth...I can read this document, and I know that is about the 2 Trial of this young man Far (Poar), and his subsequent conviction and banishment from his home and family. In fact, all the circles with all the stars is Far's entire Family Genealogy, for all to see.
