Hebrew WIKIDATA

Material:

non-consecutive, complete; marginalia

Physical Description:

Extent: 2 fols. (bifolium: recto=1r|2v; verso=2r|1v): non-consecutive, complete; marginalia

Note:

Both fols. are from Seliḥot, probably for Yom Kippur.
The structure is based on the standard final segment of the Seliḥot sequence (as found in Sidur Rav Seʹadyah Gaʾon / Israel Davidson [ed.]. Jerusalem : Meḳitse nirdamim, 1963, pp. 307-308), including the Ṿidui confession and supplication יהי רצון מלפניך (here, fol. 1, l.15), followed by prayers based on biblical verses linked by ככתוב (here fol. 2).
The content of the version found here varies greatly from the above standard, and includes supplications for redemption, rains, harvest, and national rectification, in addition to the standard theme of forgiveness.
