Content Description
SummaryThis goatskin ilan amulet was likely created in Jerusalem by the scribe Nissim Sejera and is an abridged adaptation of Isaac Coppio's two column ilan (Jerusalem, NLI, Ms. Heb. 4=9790). The adaptation constitutes a significant reduction of the original from which much text has also been removed. The ilan includes a magical addendum personalized for a specific client: Moses son of Malakand Cohen. The existence of an almost identical copy featuring the name of a different recipient (New York, JTS, Ms. 435) indicates their commercial production.
Colophon"אילן זה לשם ולהצלחת בכל מעשים ובכל עסקים של משה בן מלאקנד כהן הי"ו ומכל צרה יצילנו ובכל אשר יפנה ישכיל ויצליח ... תוככי ירושלים עה"ק תובב"א אנס"ו. עץ חיים אילנא דחיי של האר"י הקדוש זצוק"ל וזיע"א שקבל מוהרח"ו זצוק"ל וזיע"א סלת נקייה. דרוש אדם קדמון"
