The commentary by Rav Leone Modena found in this Hagadah the famous “Tzeli Esh†is an abbreviation of Don Isaac Abrabanel’s voluminous commentary “Zevach Pesach†first published during the author’s lifetime in Constantinople in 1505. The translation of the “Tzeli Esh†into Yiddish is by Solomon Zalman ben Moses Raphael London 1661-1748 author and translator who was active between 1709 and 1735. Leon de Modena or Yehuda Aryeh Mi-Modena 1571-1648 is considered the most famous Venetian Rabbi of the 17th century. He was a Jewish scholar born in Venice into a family of migrants from France after the French expulsion of Jews. He was well respected but his reputation within traditional Judaism suffered both due to his criticism of emerging sects within Judaism but also because of his addiction to gambling and seeming lack of stability. He is famous for his criticism of the mystical approach to Judaism and his attacks on the Kaballa but his international fame mainly rests upon him being the interpreter of Judaism to the Christian world. He was the first since Josephus and Philo to write a Jewish text to non-Jewish readers Historia de gli riti Hebraici 1637 which was widely read by Christians and extremely influential. The editor Naftali Hertz ben Alexander Ziskind Levi Rofe of Emden “set up his press in Amsterdam in 1726. He complemented his printing equipment with that purchased from the Isaac Templo press after it was closed down. He was a physician by profession as evidenced by his moniker Rofe. He was granted title of doctor of medicine from the University of Harderwijk in 1716. He pursued his medical practice as well as printing and bookselling. He was a member of a small group of Jewish intellectuals interested in scientific disputes. He tended to publish alone as well as in cooperation with others but above all with his son-in-law Kosman ben Joseph Baruch who was also involved in the book trade. Their cooperation lasted from 1742 to 1766 and resulted in many works being published.†The Bezalel Narkiss Index of Jewish Art The Center for Jewish Art </em> hardcover

With an engraved frontispiece and a final page of publisher's advertisements. Contemporary gilt-tooled calf contrasting red morocco lettering-piece. Extremities heavily rubbed lower joint split loss to head of spine corners bumped. Internally clean and crisp occasional inked highlighting to terminal catalogue. A collection of dramatist Ben Jonson's 1572-1637 most popular works; including his comic masterpiece The Alchemist 1610 - one of the only Renaissance plays besides the works of Shakespeare to have achieved longevity and remain popular with audiences throughout the intervening centuries. The three plays are subjoined by 'A true and exact catalogue of all the plays and other dramatick pieces that were ever yet printed in the English tongue in alphabetical order: continu’d down to April 1732' also issued separately. The list compiled by bookseller William Feales ‘Where may be had Variety of Plays’ though rather comprehensive is of limited bibliographical scope as it provides only the titles with no regard for authorship or publication details. That said it does furnish each entry with an abbreviation denoting the genre: 'Those Plays that have this Mark are Acting Plays: Those with C. stand for Comedy T. for Tragedy T.C. for Tragi-Comedy O. for Opera and F. for Farce'; an intriguing early eighteenth-century publishing curiosity clearly calculated for a commercial rather than scholarly readership.

See foliation and condition notes for each volume below.<br /> <br /> Scarce eighteenth-century edition of this seminal compendium of Jewish law halakhah. Compiled between 1170 and 1180 while Maimonides was living in Egypt the Mishneh Torah is regarded as the author's magnum opus. It is the only Medieval-era work that surveys the full panoply of Jewish observance including those laws that are only applicable when the Jerusalem Temple is in existence. The present edition is the first to contain Judah Rosanes' commentary Mishneh le-melekh. "Mishneh Torah" The Repetition of the Law is an appellation originally applied to the biblical book of Deuteronomy; the subtitle "ha-Yad ha-Hazakah" The Book of the Strong Hand plays on its subdivision into fourteen books: the numerical value fourteen is represented in Hebrew letters as Yud 10 Dalet 4 which forms the word "yad" hand. Maimonides sought to provide a complete statement of the Oral Law so that a person who mastered first the Written Torah and then the Mishneh Torah would be in no need of any other book. Contemporary reaction was mixed with strong and immediate opposition focusing on the absence of sources and the belief that the work appeared to be intended to supersede study of the Talmud itself. Maimonides responded to these criticisms and the Mishneh Torah endures as an influential work in Jewish religious thought. According to several authorities a decision may not be rendered in opposition to a view of Maimonides even where he apparently militated against the sense of a Talmudic passage for in such cases the presumption was that the words of the Talmud were incorrectly interpreted. Likewise: One must follow Maimonides even when the latter opposed his teachers since he surely knew their views and if he decided against them he must have disapproved their interpretation.<br /> <br /> Vol. 1: 1 title 8 234 102 3 ff. Repairs at title page with very slight loss of text at verso following leaf and the final leaf. Text embrowned often heavily in first half with some light marginal dampstains throughout.

A highly controversial figure both during his lifetime and after his death he is generally acknowledged as the preeminent Jewish thinker of the Middle Ages. He was born in Córdoba Spain but fled as a child from the Almohad persecution. He eventually settled in Egypt where he served as a rabbi physician and philosopher. His fourteen-volume Mishneh Torah his only work not in Arabic still carries canonical authority particularly within the Yemenite Jewish community as the codification of Talmudic law. His other works include "Kitab al-Siraj" a commentary on the Mishnah "Kitab al-Fara'I" a book on precepts and the celebrated philosophical work "Dalalat al-Ha'irin" known in Hebrew as the "Moreh Nevukhim" The Guide to the Perplexed. In this latter work Maimonides attempted a philosophical/theological reconciliation of the Hebrew Bible and Greek knowledge. This work came to play a central role in all subsequent major controversies over philosophy within the Jewish community during the Middle Ages. Bi-defus Yisrael bar Avraham hardcover
