Important Manuscript: Compilation of Novellae, Speeches and Annotations from an Anonymous Lithuanian Scholar


A long manuscript handwritten by an anonymous scholar who was clearly well-versed in both Torah and general knowledge.

It includes explanations on Nevi'im and Kesuvim, sayings of Chazal and novellae.
The anonymous author mentions the names of his other sefarim and laments the fact that he lives in a place with too few sefarim. He also mentions that he is already "old and weak" (40). He sporadically quotes thoughts from the sages of Lithuania and quotes from the Vilna Gaon.
It is obvious that the author was a tremendous scholar of great stature.
