Two early books by Rabbi Yossef Chaim of Baghdad author of "Ben Ish Chai".
1. Birkat Avot, commentary and implications on Tractate Avot. Livorno, 1865.
2. Hilula Rabah, study order for Lag Ba'omer. Livorno, 1877. New editing altering the order of the Zohar sections and addition of liturgical poems and prayers [additions and editing by Rabeinu Avraham Yossef as revealed in his book Leshon Chachamim, Part I, Jerusalem 1905, leaf 101 chapter 57].
82 leaves; 60 leaves. 18cm. Good condition, slight foxing marks.
