A manuscript of the Kabbalist Rabbi Yaakov Chaim Sofer author of the "Kaf HaChaim". In the title is written: "Darush LTisha B'Av". The sermon is unknown and was not published.
The manuscript includes quotes from the Talmud and Midrashim regarding the destruction of the Temple and the suffering of the Jewish people.

In of one of the leaves, the words "Ein Ya'akov" are written as a title - It is most likely that this sermon (Drasha) was supposed to be included in a book of sermons (Drashot) by the "Kaf Ha'Chaim". However, for various reasons, a book titled "Ein Ya'akov" by the "Kaf Ha'Chaim" was never published.
