Derech Erez Zuta
Derech Erez Zuta (also Derekh Erets Suta and other writings, Hebrew מסכת דרך ארץ זוטא) is a so-called extra - canonical treatise of the Babylonian Talmud and is usually printed in its appendix after the order Nesiqin .
It is a collection of maxims created after 300, mostly formulated anonymously, which calls for modesty and self-examination.
The last chapter (chapter 10, from another source, clearly later) is eschatological .
