Manuscript, copy of Amudeha Shiva, homiletics on the Torah. Attractive Oriental writing – in two columns, [North Africa (Morocco?/ Tunisia?), c. 19th century].
Amudeha Shiva, homiletics on the Torah and on the Bible, by Rabbi Bezalel of Kobryn a preacher in Slutsk Lithuania, printed in Lublin 1666, in Prague 1674, and other editions. Apparently, copies of the book reached North Africa and due to its popularity it was copied by scribes and spread in the area of Tunisia and Morocco.
On the last leaf is a handwritten ownership inscription [childish?]: "This is my book, the… Chacham R' Avham Weisman". Apparently, this manuscript belonged to Rabbi Avraham Weisman. [Possibly, it was the copy of the Kabbalist Rabbi Avraham Weisman of Tunis who ascended to Safed. Written on a bill of a loan of the Safed community from 1817: The tremendous chacham and Kabbalist…from Tunis Rabbi Avraham ben Moshe Weisman", Otzar Genazim by Rabbi Y. M. Toledano pp. 120-121].
The manuscript is damaged and lacking leaves. Originally, the homiletics were arranged in seven Amudim [chapters]. This manuscript has four of the Amudim: Amud Brit Avraham [lacking in the beginning], Amud Pachad Yitzchak, Amud Afar Ya'akov and Amud Torat Moshe. [Lacking: Amud Korban Aharon, Amud Migdal David and Amud Yeriot Shlomo].
Approximately 65 leaves. 22 cm. Poor condition, major wear and tears with damages, stains and detached leaves.
