Piyyut "Ha'Me'orah" [which is said before the end of the blessing of "Yotzer Ha'me'orot" as a preface to the words "Or Chadash"]. We have not found the Piyyut in religious databases. It is most likely that this is a totally unknown version! [Spain, circa 1400 – the period of the Rishonim]. Two leaves written on both their sides, one of them almost complete except for damage to six words on its upper part. The second page is cut and we have only half of it.
15 cm. 15 lines per page.
Condition: Has been taken out of the binding of an ancient book; thus, there are certain flaws.
