First edition during the author’s lifetime – Livorno, 1865. In the copy before us there is a bibliographical revelation – an additional leaf at the end of the book that is numbered with the piyyut Unetana Tokef. This means that this copy has 162 leaves, unlike all the common copies of this edition. We did not find another such copy in the various bibliographical lists. Abridged laws in Ladino.
