Author Yitsḥaḳ ben Yehudah, ha-Leṿi, sec. XIII (internal)
Supplied title [קיצור ס' פענח רזא]
Supplied title Compendium of Paʿaneʾaḥ Raza
General note Isaac b. Judah ha-Levi's commentary on the Pentateuch, based on teachings of the Tosafists and Ḥasidei Ashkenaz.
General note This compendium based on a different redaction from the printed editions is also found in MS Vienna, Nationalbibliothek hebr. 153 and MS Paris, BnF héb. 1467 (formerly Vienna Jewish Community Library, MS IV,3), both manuscripts copied in Italy, the latter in Siena in 1423 from a manuscript brought from France. The redaction on which it is based is found in several codices, among them MSS Parma, Biblioteca Palatina, Parm. 3512 and 2057.
General note This compendium includes some material not found in "Paʿaneʾaḥ Raza", sometimes introduced by the words סברא היא לא מצאתי בפענח or similar phrases.
General note About one or two pages of text are missing at the beginning. At the end (ff. 27v-28r) the scribe added some commentaries on the first verses of Genesis in order to complete the text missing at the beginning but they seem to originate from another source. A later hand added זהו מה שחסר בתחלת בראשית.
