A late-medieval anthology of midrash on the Pentateuch. This collection, of Yemenite origin (generally attributed to David b. Amram of Aden, Yemen, who lived in the thirteenth or fourteenth century), often freely reworks its sources, sometimes interpolating material from Maimonides or other medieval scholars. At the same time, it also preserves much ancient material, some of it otherwise quite unattested or at least unknown in that particular form.
