The author, according to the title page, served as rabbi for adapt Yeshurin in Kremonai in Mahrin. It describes Nevayot be-Ramah (Noias Beroma) as consisting of eighteen ethical discourses delivered with love in explaining verses and midrashim. There is an approbation signed by R. Mordecai Benet and his bet din, R. Mosezs Leib Ziltz, and R. Moses Karitshner. In his introduction R. Abraham Zevi informs that among the reasons he named the work Nevayot be-Ramah is that it contains the names of his father, Meir, and his mother, Rahel, as well as his secular name Hirsch ben Meir. Among the subject mater of the discourses are the mitzvah of reproof, fear of God, the shame of arrogance, the shame of lashon ha-ra, the virtues of learning Torah, the virtues of Torah and gemilut hasidim, of charity, of prayer, prevailing over the yeter when it is a ish, repentance, and concluding with the comforting of Zion.
