Various ownership inscriptions from the period: 'קניתי מהוני לכבוד קוני בעד... צבי מכונה הירש בהר”ר אלי' [?] סג”ל ...פה פראג. הק' מאיר לייב בראסויטש מסירויעג יעזופעוב [?].  HaGaon HaKadosh Rabbi Betzalel Rensburg (1762–1821) – faithful and longstanding disciple of Maran the Noda B'Yehuda and of his primary Rebbe, Rabbi Leib Fischels of Prague. Author of Hagahot Mahar”b Rensburg, Ma’aseh R”V, Hora Gever, and other works. Most of his writings were lost and never printed, among them apparently a comprehensive work on the Torah that unfortunately, has not survived; only a glimpse of his scope and genius is reflected in the references appearing in the present Sefer.
