The author Rabbi Shmuel served as the chief Rabbi in Aram Tzova (Aleppo) for about 40 years. After his passing his son Rabbi Avraham filled his place and for many generations his descendants served in this position. Rabbi Shmuel brought in his sefarim many Divrei Torah from scholars of his generation as: Rabbi Yaakov Bei-Rav, the Holy Ari, the Holy Ramak, Rabbi Shlomo Halevi Aklabetz and more. His many endeavors for the sake of permitting Agunot are mentioned in shut Sefarim.
