Content Description
SummaryThis 1720 manuscript was copied in Morocco by the itinerant scribe Isaac Coppio. It contains the work Meโarat sdeh ha-makhpelah by Moses ibn แบur, a poetic paraphrase of แธคayyim Vitalโs Oแบrot แธคayyim. In the front matter of the codex, Coppio integrated Element V. V appears here as a diagrammatic duo consisting of two complementary synoptic circle diagrams that map the Lurianic cosmological structure.
