Ilan'. Manuscript on learning and summarizing Mishnayot for students. Italy, 18th century
Summary of a complicated Mishnah in Sanhedrin set up in the form of a 'tree' as is familiar to us from kabbalah.
In this way the teacher was able to make it very clear to the students how to understand all the terms and intricate details of this Mishnah in Sanhedrin on the subject of a dayan who judged incorrectly because he was mistaken.
[1] Paper folio. 27*38 cm. The tree is constructed like a menorah, and was pasted onto a sheet of paper.
An extremely rare folio. It reflects the manner of teaching and of acquiring knowledge of the Mishnah for young boys in Italy in the eighteenth century.
Three moth holes on the margin. Very good condition.
