- About the MS:
- This goatskin ilan amulet was likely created in Jerusalem by the scribe Nissim Sejera and is an abridged adaptation of Isaac Coppio's two column ilan (Jerusalem, NLI, Ms. Heb. 4=9790). The adaptation constitutes a significant reduction of the original from which much text has also been removed. The ilan includes a magical addendum personalized for a specific client: Moses son of Malakand Cohen. The existence of an almost identical copy featuring the name of a different recipient (New York, JTS, Ms. 435) indicates their commercial production.
