This edition, printed on quality paper in an attractive square font, is accompanied by a translation into Yiddish by R. Shimon Isaac Lazaron, son of the Rav and Av Bet Din of R. Wolf Heidenheim. The title page is dated Sivan 592 (1832). There is a dedication page to R. Saul ben Lazer from his grandson. The front cover has a diamond in the center with the name, in gold, Siegfried, Seeligmaan.

The seven chapters in Hilkhot De’ot address in great detail the laws and regulations of human conduct. Subject matter encompasses imitating God, loving one’s fellow man and converts, not to hate or embarrass others, be a tale bearer, or to be vengeful.
