Note:

Text break denoted by two spaces.
The text summarizes the halakhic material in its Talmudic order, with additional hermeneutic comments.
Fol. 1 is based on Shabbat 62-66 with very little additional material; fol. 2 is based on ibid., 73-74 with more extensive post-Talmudic supplements.
It is possible that some of this supplementary text may have influenced Ḥananel ben Ḥushiel, as there is some similarity between them. This is particulalry so in Ḥananel's comment at the end of 74b, presented in the name of יש מי שאומרים, which appears here verbatum.
Primitive plenum orthography. Examples: מעיקארא; חמארא; דפאריס; בוריר; דסאליק.
