The book contains halachot written in rhyme, with surrounding commentaries labeled "Apei zutrei" and "Apei ravrevei". The end of the introduction contains a long illustrated poem by the author's son regarding the contents of the work. The poem is written such that the initial or final words of each line are the same. The author, the gaon R. Yitzchak Chajes (1538-1617) was among the earliest Acharonim. He was brother-in-law of the Maharal of Prague. First edition, published during the lifetime of the author, who is referred to as "the gaon R. Yitachak She"n, known as R. Yitzchak Chajes". This book is quoted often by the greatest Halachic decisors. On the title page is an ancient signature: "Moshe ben R. Yitzchak Zussman". The following page contains another signature: "Avraham ben R. Yisrael [Isserlis?]". An additional signature appears in the center of the title page: "The world and all its contents belong to G-d. [This volume belongs to] David Deutsch". The book contains six glosses with short corrections in the distinctive handwriting of R. David Deutsch R.

He was a renowned Torah scholar and served as rabbi of Jamnitz, Frauenkirchen and Dunajská Streda. From 1810 until his passing, he served as Rabbi of Nowe Miasto. Some of his Talmudic novellae were printed in his Ohel David books. He exchanged a prolific halachic correspondence with the leading Torah figures of his times, including the Nodah B'Yehuda, the Chatam Sofer and the author of Yismach Moshe. The Chatam Sofer wrote in his approbation to this volume: "That tsaddik, holy Jew, genius… I have seen wonderful things in his book… We are privileged to merit his words and his light… his merit should protect us from all harm". 17, [1], 1-65, 70-108 leaves (missing [4] leaves that were added to the end of the book after the final colophon). 19.5 cm. Fair condition; stains and wear. Tears to the margins of several pages without missing text. Worn and damaged leather binding, new adhesive fabric spine. Missing [4] final pages containing a lamentation written by the author's son, R. Menachem Manish Chajes, over the fire that broke out in Poznan and over the passing of his brother, R. Shmuel Chajes.
