The commentary does not arrange based on the verses' order. The author shifts arbitrarily from Pentateuch to Hagiographa or from Prophets to Pentateuch.
The marginal notes are in the same hand as the text.
A table of contents of the verses discussed appears on the last leaf (unmarked).
The commentary includes comments on large chapters or books like Job chapter 1(leaves 101-110), the book of Esther (178-206).
Leaves 3-6 are selections from Joseph Karo's Magid Mesharim. This Ms. presents notable variants as compared with the printed ed.
