The volume begins with approbations from R. Hayyim Joseph Ma’aman and R. Abraham Abi-Hasira and an introduction from R. Jacob Lacrif. It is published by the Magen David Zionist Society. An interesting feature of the book is that the text is printed with fonts from two different presses. The first part, through page 24, has fonts identical to those of the ben Hiyyon press in Tangier and was begun in1919, the date on the title page. The second part, to the end of the book, has the fonts of the press of Moses Amar and Shalom Albaz and was printed in 1922. The reason for the delay seems to have been a dispute with ben Hiyyon.
