A two-part Kabbalistic work: Kissei David, on the Kings of Judah and Kinath Ephraim, on the Kings of Israel, along with moralistic notes entitled Smv”t (“Sur Mera Va’ase Tov.”) The author who served as Rabbi of Eybeschuetz states at the end of his second introduction that he intended to publish two further parts, however financial distress prevented this.
