Rare First Edition Commentary from the Ramak on the Seder Yom Kippur; Venice, 1587

Commentary on the Seder HaYom recited on Yom Kippur from Rabbi Moshe Cordovero, published by his son, Rabbi Gedalya Cordovero "in a small volume so that it should be possible to attach it at the end of the siddur."

Following the title page there is an introduction from Rabbi Gedalya: "Being that due to the exile customs of prayers have changed, perhaps one who sees this treatise will think that it was based upon the prayer customs of the Sephardim. I therefore proclaim that it is based upon the ma’aseh korbanos as per the opinion of the Rambam."

At the end of the treatise , there are emotional remarks regarding the passing of his father in 1569, which left him orphaned at the young age of eight.

in addition , there is "Sod Nishama Yeseira" from the Rama of Pano, and a poem honoring the Ramak from Rabbi Shmuel Arqualti, author of Arugas HaBosem.

This first edition was published in Venice, 1587.
