The author, R. Yissachar Ber son of R. Petachya of Kremenets, was an Ashkenazi kabbalist in Poland who lived in the days of the Arizal's disciples. He authored Yesh Sachar - a "Shulchan Aruch" of Jewish law according to the Zohar (Prague, 1609), Pitchei Y-a - indexes of Kabbalistic concepts (Prague 1609), Imrei Binah - glossary according to the Zohar (Prague, 1611) and this composition. Traditionally, his soul was a spark of the soul of the Arizal, as cited in the book Shivchei HaAri, in a letter written to him by R. Shlomo Shlomil of Strážnice (Dreznitz, son-in-law of R. Yisrael Saruk). R. Shlomo Shlomil addresses R. Yissachar with remarkable words: "Who can be compared to your greatness among the entire Jewish People who live in Ashkenazi countries… my heart tells me that very definitely you are the sage about whom R. Chaim [Vital] said that he is a reincarnation of the Arizal…".
