Seder Tikunei Kallah for Lel Shavuot according to Tripoli tradition. Venice, 1680.
the author of the Tikkun is the noted Kabbalist Rabbi Shimon Lavi – author of the piyyut Bar Yochai. this version is entirely different from the version of Tikkun Leil Shavuot accepted throughout the Jewish world. this Tikkun is "structured after the seven sefirot and begins with the Attribute of Chesed" and is divided into seven "Sedarim" – corresponding to the seven days of the week. Each part contains verses of the creation of that day following by verses from Nevi'im Ketuvim and the Mishnah. At the end are sayings from the Zohar.
20 leaves [the last leaf is mispaginated: 15]. 15 cm. Good condition, library stamps, stains. Contemporary cardboard binding.
