The author (1754-1836), was a student of the Sha’agath Aryeh and later served as a Dayan and Rabbi in Metz. He also served as a member of Napoleon’s Great Sanhedrin. His work Meorei Or was published annonymously, in eight parts between 1819 and 1831. The name”Aaron” appears as an acronym in the introduction, which itself contains several subtitles: Be’er Sheva, Ken Tahor, etc. See M.
