Sefer Even Bochan, first edition, Venice, 1546. - Sefer Even Bochan — musar teachings, proper conduct, and elaborate moral reflections, by Rabbi Klonimus ben Klonimus. Originally, three works were printed together — Mivchar HaPeninim, Bechinas Olam, and Even Bochan — in a single continuous sequence with uninterrupted pagination [although each was composed by a different author]. Nevertheless, bibliographers record the three seforim separately. At the end of the sefer is a description of the form of King Shlomo’s throne by the author Rabbi Klonimus.
