Rabbi Menaḥem Azariah da Fano was a well-known kabbalist of the Lurianic school. In this manuscript, written in his hand, he completely revised a text by both inserting and deleting extensively, and ultimately reorganizing the entire work. This manuscript is a clear example of the editorial process in action, complete with the author's original notes and comments.
Gift of Stephen Wise, from the library of Aaron Wise, 1900.
