Among other positions he was an archdeacon in charge of administering a diocese or part of it under the orders of the bishop he was appointed vicar general; He was also appointed as the schoolmaster which means that he was in charge of teaching the ecclesiastical scenes as well as archbishop of Santo Domingo but whether or not he took office is unknown. the pope appointed him delegate of the Augustinian cause over the alternative he died on June 1 1653.<br /><br />Bernardino Alvarez 1514–1584 promoted the formation of a congregation to take care of the ill founding the hospital in 1569. This congregation was given all the privileges of which the Brothers Hospitallers of St. John of God enjoyed. The Brothers remained as a congregation until 1700 when the petition of Hipolitos and Pope Innocence XII gave them the possibility of making chastity votes poorness obedience and hospitality under the rule of San AgustÃn. The San Hipólito Brothers' order was important for New Spain because seven hospitals were under their charge six of which were founded by money obtained from alms. One of those was San Hipólito hospital also founded by Bernardino Ãvarez. He was a priest born on Rosales León Spain. He studied humanities and Latin on a preceptorship located on Vegarienza León. He did his training prior making his vows before being a member of the religious institute on El Escorial Monastery where he finalized his novitiate in September 22 1531. He worked in Rome in the Real Monastery in the Ucles Monastery and in Santiago Monastery. He became a priest in 1538. He went back to Spain where he worked as a teacher in El Escorial Monastery. Bernardino Ãlvarez was imprisoned on August 6 1547. When he was released he went to Mexico after the fall of Tenochtitlan. When he arrived he started the religious order of the Hipólitos. He founded San Hipolito Hospital and "Santa Cruz" hospital in Oaxtepec Morelos Mexico. This hospital was also dedicated for patients with mental diseases. During the next years he opened other hospitals one in Puebla that was named "San Roque" which was for female psychiatric patients another one in Jalapa Veracruz called "La Concepción" and one in Acapulco Guerrero. Ãlvarez decided the foundation of five hospitals in Mexico was not enough so he traveled to Mesoamerica and founded more hospitals than he expected all the way from La Habana Cuba to Mexico. The information about his death is nonexistent but it is known that today there is a tribute to the priest on the Hospital de Jesús.<br /><br />Luis GarcÃa Pimentel 1835-1930 He was the son of and the also bibliographer and historian JoaquÃn GarcÃa Icazbalceta.

Faintly toned text crisp and fine throughout. A very attractive copy in a handsome armorial binding complete with both the author's portrait and the engraved title.<br /> <br /> First edition of this lexicon of Aramaic and post-biblical Hebrew comprising the vocabulary of the Aramaic paraphrases targum of the Old Testament the Jerusalem and Babylonian Talmuds as well as later midrashic and and rabbinic literature all copiously illustrated with extracts and examples. This present issue is dated M.DC.XXXIX. 1639 at the engraved title and M.DC. XXXX. 1640 at the main title the latter likely in error according to Prijs. The numeral "2" in the 1629 date of death on the portrait is reversed in some copies it has been erroneously replaced with a "3". The dedication Basel February 1639 is addressed to the Ordines of Groningen and Holland in recognition of the establishment in 1614 of the University of Groningen. Two faculty members Franciscus Gomarus and Heinrich Alting had specifically requested that Buxtorf publish a dictionary for use in the study of Jewish rabbinic literature. Prijs <br /> <br /> Begun in 1610 the work would occupy the elder Buxtorf for the next twenty years in the midst of his copious academic schedule and other scholarly projects. "By 1617 he had reached the letter Ayin. Between 1617 and 1619 he worked on the rabbinical Bible and probably had no time to devote to the lexicon. Finally in 1628 he completed the first draft. His manuscript work was in no shape to be published however" Burnett. "In the course of the work the material grew more and more so that after completing the whole thing up to the letter Tav he had to set about bringing the earlier letters up to date by using other sources" Prijs. Buxtorf died in 1629 before completing the revisions of the letter Bet. His son Johann would complete the revisions and finally publish the lexicon after ten more years of labor. While the younger Buxtorf states in the preface "maneat parenti gloria authoris" may the glory of the Author remain with the Parent "in his hands it became almost a new work" Smitskamp.<br /> <br /> Burnett notes that "Buxtorf's fame as a lexicographer. was not a result of his work in biblical Hebrew but in post-biblical Hebrew and talmudic Aramaic." Two centuries later bibliographers and scholars were still singing the praises of the Lexicon Chaldaicum: "All the Chaldaic Talmudical and Rabbincal words which occur in the paraphrases of the Old Testament in the Babylonish and Jerusalem Targums in the common or more private writings of the Hebrew commentarors philosophers theologians cabbalists and lawyers are fully explained. Numerous extracts and examples are given; proverbs apophthegms opinions rites and other things relating to sacred philology and antiquities are illustrated. All subsequent writers have been greatly indebted to this Lexicon of Buxtorf.†Orme. "The World is more beholden to him for his learned and judicious Labours than to any other that lived in his time and his name ought ever to be preserved with Honour in Acknowledgment of it†Prideaux.<br /> <br /> Provenance and annotations: Binding embossed at the front cover with the portrait of Augustus I 1526-1586 Elector of Saxony; the Elector's arms appear at the rear cover.
