Excerpt from Catalogue of the Hebrew and Samaritan Manuscripts in the British Museum, Vol. 3: Sections VIII, IX., Miscellaneous Mss., Charters

The wide learning shown in the treatise, as also the manner of addressing highly-placed persons , would seem to favour the idea that this is an early work of Manasseh b. Israel (1604 probably copied immediately after composition. The pseudonym Jacob Aben Amram would have been chosen from prudential motives, and the conjectural form in which the author's real name appears might not have been considered sufficient to neutralise the pseudonymous character of the work. Manasseh b. Israel was always careful to avoid attacks on Christianity in works published under his name.
