Description

Family letter from a certain Avraham to his brother Moshe. In Hebrew. Dating: 16th century. A. David identifies the sender as Avraham Sagish, writing from Jerusalem or Safed, and the addressee as his brother Moshe Sagish. However it's worth noting that the name Sagish does not appear in the preserved text; only the samekh is visible in the address to משה ס . . . . (Information in part from A. David, מסמכי הגניזה הקהירית: מקור לתולדות היהודים בארץ-ישראל בראשית התקופה העותמאנית, Cathedra 114, pp. 67–68.)
