Notes:
|
3 lines. This is the concluding description of an apparently midrashic or aggadic text on the "Ten Signs". Possibly a list of ten signs foretelling the end of history derived from the Bible similar to the midrash on the "signs of the Messiah" printed in J.D. Eisenstein's Ozar Midrashim, p. 390. The first line in Judeo-Arabic suggests the text was written in Judeo-Arabic. Title mixture of Hebrew and Judeo-Arabic.
