Notes:
21 lines. Text on the Shabbat. Unclear whether this is a commentary, sermon, or something else. On this side of the folio, the text seems to concentrate on Exodus 35.1. Some of the quotations: Nehemiah 9.14 (line 1); Exodus 35.1 (line 2, = beginning of ויקהל ); Psalm 107.32 (line 3); Psalm 35.18 and Proverbs 14.28 (line 4); Genesis 49.2 (line 6); Psalm 47.10 (line 7); Leviticus 19.2 (line 8); Exodus 35.30 (line 9); 1 Chronicles 28.1 (line 11). On line 17 reference is made to the beginning of Ketubbot and to Megillah, but it is somewhat difficult to establish to which passages exactly.
