Tephilath Yesharim. Sephardic rite.
Edited by R. Benjamin Moshe Meli HaKohen of Jerusalem. With detailed instructions throughout. ff. (2), 142, 11, 93, 39, 8. Few leaves worn, stained in places. Modern boards. 8vo. Vinograd, Amsterdam 2093; Yaari, Ladino, 171.

Jacob Proops, Amsterdam: 1779.

An important Kabbalistic prayer-book with Lurianic Kavanoth based upon the writings of R. Moshe Zacuto. Although a Siddur with such Kavanoth was previously published in Amsterdam in 1740, the present edition contains many additions in a host of areas: Halacha, meditative prayers and explanations. The new editor, originally from Jerusalem, served as one of the Hahamim of the Sephardic congregation of Amsterdam - see his introduction and the poem in his honor following the approbations (f. 2a-b). The Piyutim for Simchath Torah are of interest - the instructions state they should be chanted with a “Nigun Yishmaeli” (see f. 141). The Haftorah for Tisha B’Av contains a Ladino translation and commentary (ff. 33b-36a, before the astronomical tables towards the end).
