Description		    On the influence of the stars during the six days of creation, the virtues of the children of Israel, of the patriarchs, and redemption by R. Solomon ben Abraham Peniel. The title page states that this is the second printing, after that of Cremona in 1557. This is incorrect, for there was an earlier Constantinople (c. 1515-20) edition. Nevertheless, it is the first edition in two hundred fifty years. The title page is dated from the phrase, “To all wise of heart, light of the eyes,” which is not a biblical verse. There are approbations from R. Hananiah Lipman Meisels and R. Zevi Hirsch David Segal. There is a lengthy introduction from R. Aryeh Leib ben Saul who brought the book to press, followed by the author’s introduction. The text, in a single column in rabbinic letters, excepting initial letters which are in square letters. Nothing is known of the author, R. Solomon ben Abraham Peniel.
