This commentary to the Torah is truly an encyclopedic work utilizing a wide variety of sources. Especially noteworthy are the author’s Kabbalistic references as well as Midrashic interpretations. R. Bachiah was well versed in this literature and brings forth many passages from lost Midrashim. The previous owner of this influential encyclopedic work was a member of an ancient illustrious Italian family. For an extensive treatment of many distinguished members of the Foa family, see A. Yaari, Mechkerei Sepher (1958) pp. 325-44.
