Eight handwritten pages from an essay - a commentary on Shir HaShirim according to the way of the Ramba'm from one of the greatest of the Rishonim, Spain [?] c. the 15th century. As far as we know the pages before us were never printed.

Four pages - manuscript commentary on the Shir HaShirim on the way of allegory. In the way of the first great geniuses of Spain - Rabbi Hisdai Karshakash, Don Yitzchak Abarbanel, and Rabbi Yitzchak Arama who put the words of The Ramb"m in the 'Moreh Nevochim' foundation and basis for their essays, the author before us also interprets the verses of Shir HaShirim as the way of the Ramba'm and the Rishonim who follow him, both in the content of things, and in the type of writing.

For examples for all the quotes brought by the author that originate from the Ramba"m and more, see extensive text in the item description in the Hebrew language.

[8] pp. [4] leaves. Sphardic writing. Thick paper. Slight moth marks. Faded ink in some lines. One of the pages has a missing tear at the bottom with a text damage in two lines. Good - moderate condition.
