Description

Upper part of recto: Legal query probably in the hand of Yedutun ha-Levi, addressed to Moshe Maimonides, ca. 1168–1204 CE (based on the dates when he was active in Egypt). Concerning a cantor who quarreled with a congregant and made an oath never to pray behind him. Now he repents of the oath and wishes to know if he can return to praying with the congregation.
