The author Abraham ben Nathan a.k.a the Rabn ha-Yarhi was born in the second half of the 12th century. He began this work in 1204.

Text in Hebrew. Pp. 1-18 are detached but present. Minor foxing and marginal pencil and pen marks and underlining throughout. Long inscription in pen on front endpaper with notes taken from the Jewish Encyclopedia entry regarding the author. Book is in overall good condition. Kornek hardcover
