Set of the Shla"h. Early Edition with an Approbation from the 'Semichat Chachamim." Frankfurt am Oder, 1717
Sefer Shnei Luchot HaBrit [Shla"h] "pure sayings more precious than pearls … composition on the Oral and Written Torah, arranged and organized … by the complete G-dly sage, butzina kaddisha, rabbi of the Land of Israel ... Rabbeinu Yeshayah HaLevi Horowitz." Frankfurt am Oder, Michel Gottshlak Press. 1717. Including an illustrated title page, which is lacking in many copies. Signature and glosses.
This is a magnificent early edition of Shnei Luchot HaBrit with an illustrated poem by the author, and an especially lengthy approbation from the gaon and Kabbalist Rabbi Naftali Katz, author of Semichat Chachamim, appearing for the first time in this edition. The book Hakdamat Vavei HaAmudim by his son, Rabbi Sheftel Horowitz, appears at the end of this volume, with a separate title page.
The remnant of a rabbinic signature in chatzi kolmus script appears at the beginning of the book. Several short comments appear along the length of the book, apparently by the same writer.
Volume I - [4], [1]-263 leaf. Approximately 30 cm.
Volume II - 264-422; 44 leaf. Approximately 30 cm.
Fine condition. The illustrated title page is pasted onto paper for reinforcement.
