Dated with the verse “the ephod, that they should be stones for a memorial to the people of Israel” (Exodus 39:7), the title page states that it is “stones for a memorial,” “a remembrance of former things” (Ecclesiastes 1:11), they are the mighty ones. The words of Kohelet “I will surely consume them” (Jeremiah 8:13), halakhic novellae on Avnei ha-Ezer from the earlier and later rabbis which are not brought in the works of the “assembly of bulls” (Psalms 68:31) which are still in manuscript and no eye has seen the “light that shines for the righteous”( Psalms 112:4). Avnei ha-Efod is in the order of the Shulhan Arukh Even ha-Ezer and includes responsa appropriate to it. The verso of the title page ahs a Birkhot Ve-Hoda’ot followed by a full page photograph of R. Pipano in his rabbinic garb. Next is his introduction and then the text in two columns in rabbinic letters. A second volume of Avnei ha-Efod, responsa on Shulhan Arukh Even ha-Ezer, was printed in 1927.
