Excerpt from Saadyana: Geniza Fragments of Writings of R. Saadya Gaon and OthersThe fragments contained in this volume belong with few exceptions to the taylor-schechter Col Iection of the University Library at Cambridge, England. The exceptions are fragments VII, XLIII, XLVIII. The first is in the possession of Judge Sulzberger, Philadelphia; the two last are the property of Elkan Adler, Esq., m.a., of London, England. To these two gentlemen I tender my best thanks.

I also acknowledge my indebtedness to the editors of the jewish quarterly review, in which periodical almost the whole of the text originally appeared.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
