Ohr Ne'erav - The Rama"k's Kabbalah. Venice, 1587. Important and Rare Sefer
Ohr Ne'erav- Gateway to Kabbalistic wisdom by Rabbi Moshe Cordovero - the Rama"k, rare first edition. Lacking the title page.
Fundamental work on Kabbalistic doctrine according to the Rama"k. With a lengthy introduction by Rabbi Gedaliah Cordovero, the Rama"k's son. Additional lengthy introduction by the proofreader, who, according to Rabbi Gedaliah's words, was likely Rabbi Menachem of Pano (the Rem"a). It is important to note that leading Kabbalists saw in the Rama"k's Kabbalistic works, especially Sefer Ohr Ne'erav, a gateway to entry into the world of Kabbalah (refer to the expanded discussion in the Hebrew catalog text).
The sefer was printed by the author's son, Rabbi Gedaliah Cordovero, who gave the sefer to Rabbi Menachem Azariah of Pano to edit and proofread, as he wrote: "I found the complete sage, the Rem"a of Pano ... he is entirely faithful in my father's home... and was privileged to proofread it.
Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of Rabbi Moshe Cordovero - the Rama"k.
2-56 leaf, lacking the title page. 15 cm.
