Shacharit, Mincha and Aravit, according to Sephardic custom, Hebrew and Judeo-Arabic on facing pages. As far as is known, this is the first siddur that was translated into Judeo-Arabic and printed in Hebrew letters. The translation was written by Rabbi Eliyahu Hai Gag - Livorno 1883. On the title page of the book is the dedication of the copyist to "Mordechai Levi Bara", handwritten. Especially rare! Original: 3, 266 pages. The copy before us is missing the following pages: 6, 7, 8, 66, 67, 68, 163. Original binding is worn and defective, many pages disconnected, many tears (some with damage to text). Generally bad to ok condition. Rabbi Eliyahu Hai Gag (Gig or Gaz) lived from 1840-1908, was a son of Rabbi Yosef. Born in Tunis, served as rabbi in Algiers, wrote chiddushim on the Talmud and published many books, including this one, Ma’aseh Sha’ashu’im, Sfatei Renanot, Ma’aseh Tzaddikim, Magen David, and left behind many manuscripts that were not printed.
