Notes

• End of an article denoted by a circle between two spaces; A fragment from an antique Aggadic text. The fragment opens with Aggadic passages on the importance of learning, even greater than deeds. A known passage here is that of R. Jose found in Talmud Kiddushin 40b (= Sifri 41 in the name of R. Jose the Galilean); There are also Amoraic passages that have no known parallel in Talmud and Midrashim; The only incipit is (recto l. 9) פזר נתן לאביונים (Psalms CXII 9) indicating that Psalms is probably the subject of this Midrash. The content of this article is structured of lengthy allegories and homilies, with no recognized parallels in Talmud and Midrashim.
