The book becomes notorious in German Renaissance magic, named together with Picatrix as among the most abominable works of Nigromantia by Johannes Hartlieb. The prayer of Adam is paraphrased by Nicholas of Cues in two sermons (Sermo I, 4, 16.25; Sermo XX, 8, 10-13) and further made use of by Reuchlin in his De Arte Cabbalistica.[1] Konrad Bollstatter in the 15th century also shows awareness of the Latin version of the "Prayer of Adam" an interpolation in Cgm 252, although he replaces Raziel with Raphael and Seth with Sem.[2]
