The author, Rabbi Shmuel Laniado, known as the 'Ba'al HaKeilim' after the names of his books, was the head of the rabbis of Aleppo. He lived for some time in Safed, and in his books there are many quotations heard directly from leading kabbalists of Safed: Mahar"i Berav, the Rama"k, the Ar"i, Rabbi Shlomo Alkabetz and more. He was sent by Rabbi Yosef Karo to lead the Aleppo community - he wrote them "I have sent a man like myself" - and he was appointed there as head rabbi. Many of his descendants served as rabbis in Aleppo.
