Notes by Chaim Meiselman : Zedner, Cat. British Museum Library,p.283.BenJakob, Otsar ha-Sefarim,91 : (3).Ch.D. Friedberg, Beit Eked Sefarim,samekh 67 : 3. Title note describes the lineage of the author. מהור"ר יחיאל... שמו נודע למשגב ... בק"ק מינסק בליטא ... בן שלמה אב"ד בשקלאב ... נכד ... מהרש"ל נין ונכד מאור הגולה רש"י ז"ל ... היוצא מהתנא ר. יוחנן הסנדלר ... דור רביעי לרבן גמליאל הזקן | . Translation: the author, his name is known and ascendant ... as Av-Beth-Din of Minsk, in 'Lita' (reference to the Lithuanian Diaspora), son of Shelomoh, Av-Beth-Din in Shklovv (Shklou, Belarus); grandchild to Mahar.sha.l. (Solomon b. Jehiel Luria, Lublin-Poland, 1510-1573); descendant of "The Light of the Exile", Rashi (Solomon b. Isaac, Troyes-France, 11th century); he descended from ... Jochanan ha-Sandlar (2nd century Judea - Alexandria); descendant of four generations (i.e. great-grandson) to Gamaliel the Elder (leader of the late Sanhedrin, Judea, 1st century). The implication is the lineage of King David (Davidic-Solomonic royal lineage) was counted historically through the aforequoted figures, thus preserving it through eras of Jewish exile. This quote is from the author written to complete the title-author statement of the first edition (Kahrlsruhe, 1769) - however it is missing from the contents of the book, entries Rashi, Gamaliel, and Jochanan ha-Sandlar, add to that the lengthy introduction. This work is not the first one of Rabbinic history and historiography, however, it differs from earlier as it follows the Rabbinic pilpul with regard to dates, personas, and historical periods. His sources are from the Talmud, Bible and some of the Apocrypha, and statement of the medieval Tosafists and Maimonides; Sefer ha-Kabalah by Abraham ibn Daud (12th cent.), Yuhasin by Abraham Zacuto, Sifte Yeshenim by Sabbetai Bas, and similiar Rabbinic-historical works. Examples of questions: Who was the Mishnaic Tyrannus-Rufus (introd.); What were the true historical personas of the Sabora'im (5th - 8th cents. Iraq); resolving Alexander the Great in the Mishnaic and Talmudic sources; The 10th century "rediscorvery" of the ten lost tribes by Eldad ha-Dani (second count, ls. 34-36); Gamaliel's exile with the Sanhedrin from Jerusalem to Ussa to Yabne (third count, ls. 18-19), and many other historical topics surrounding Judaic-Rabbinic history. Title with just text and no ornamentation; block-letters "be-otiyot Amsterdam" - 'with the Amsterdam type". The opening word of the text is אדם, Adam, which is highlighted and decorated by a woodcut border. In this design, woodcut type was mistakenly left in, adding incongruent designs to the illustration. Lettered "U.".Introduction, and then a running appendix at the opening. Some appendices end the volume as well.Chronogram: בשנת ק.ו.רא. ה.ד.ו.רו.ת. מ.ראש (1808).- Place
