Rabbi Mordechai Halevi (1600-1684) was the Rabbi of Egypt, and his son, Rabbi Avraham (1650-1704) took over his position and authored the "Ginat Veradim".

The title page verso features a large sketch of the Holy Temple. The title page bears the owner signature of Avraham Tiktin. The "Milchemet Mitzvah" has its own title page.
Rabbi Avraham Tiktin (1775-1821) was the rabbi of Glogau and then Breslau. He authored the "Petach HaBayit" on the Talmud (Dyhernfurth, 1820).
Old, shaky binding. Stains on the title page and a small hole. Fine condition.
