Collection of Manuscripts in the Revealed and Hidden [Torah]
Thick bundle of writings comprising various manuscripts in halachah and Kabbalah that were written/transcribed in Yemen towards the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century.
Among the manuscripts:
* Talmudic dictionary, something of a Sefer HaAruch.
* Sod Yichud Shem HaMeyuchad - in-depth Kabbalistic topics (over 200 pages).
* Sefer Netivot HaEmunah - philosophic-Kabbalistic work by Mori Chaim Yichye Charozi, one of the Yemenite sages of the 17th-18th centuries. This is a one-of-a-kind composition - a debate on topics of faith and religion between Jews and Muslims in Yemen. Important and interesting composition written in the style of a dialogue in rhyme. The work has still not been printed in its entirety. Incomplete.
* Simanei Leil HaSeder (kadesh, u'rechatz) in the mussar approach.
* Manuscript of the book Chelek Bnei Yehudah on Megillat Ruth by Rabbi Yehudah Chevillio (Venice, 1695). With the signature of the scribe Yichye ben Yichye son of Rabbi Saliman, of Altwilah.
* Other writings and transcriptions that have not been thoroughly examined.
Approximately [900] pp, most of a uniform size, 11x18 cm. Large, clear script.
Fine-very fine condition. Minimal aging stains. Slight tears in individual leaves. Original fabric binding, worn.
