Cf. Munich BSB Cod. hebr. 358.
The NLI catalogue gives two different names as authors: in its summary entry for the whole volume, it attributes this work to Ibn Balʿam, but in the entry for this particular work on ff. 1-9, it attributes the work to Judah ben David Ḥayyuj. According to the Encyclopaedia Judaica, Steinschneider incorrectly attributed the Horayat ha-Ḳoreʾ to ibn Balʿam.
