- Origin:
- Ferrara (Italy)
- Provenance:
- Assemani wrote that this manuscript came from the Palatine collection, but Cassuto, "Palatini", p. 56 maintains that the manuscripts belonging to the Rossellos were acquired by the Biblioteca Apostolica from another source (cf. MS Vat. ebr. 7).
- History:
- An owner, Jacob b. Abraham Rossello אני יעקב בכמ"ר אברהם רשלו signed his name on ff. 1v, 109v and on the recto of the unnumbered last folio. On the verso he added some verses with his name, beginning ליעקב לכה זמיר. He owned MSS Vat. ebr. 7, 13 and 264 as well. On f. 109v Barukh b. Jacob Rossello signed his name ברוך בכמ"ר יעקב רושלו יצ"ו.
