This work is attributed to Rabbi Nechuniah ben HaKaneh, but there are some who are uncertain about whether he is indeed the author, and about whether the book is kosher. – And here is a copy of the work that was in the possession of an Admo”r. –
Rabbi Menachem Nachum of Sadigura’s signature appears on the leaf before the title page. Stamps of Rabbi Nachum DovBer Friedman, Admo”r of Sadigura, on the title page, with a sticker- a [Hebrew] bookplate: “From the Library of Rabbi Nachum Dov Friedman of Sadigura.”
Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of the Admo”r Rabbi Menachem Nachum Dov of Sadigura .
