(BIBLE).
Cesare Barzi. Decisiones almae Rotae Bononiensis. First edition. ff. (52), 418, (1). Venice, Damianum Zenarium, 1603.
Binding incorporating a 15th-century Hebrew Bible fragment.
Folio.
1603
The vellum binding is a Masoretic manuscript (note the masorah gedolah that is visible on the bottom), and the text on the side of the attached image is the Book of Kings I, chap. 8. The other side is from the Book of Chronicles II, Chap. 2:1-13. Both leaves appear to be in the same hand.
