Rare Homiletic Work – Vehocheach Avraham, Tunis 1912 - A rare edition of Vehocheach Avraham, a collection of homilies on the Five Books of Moses by Rabbi Avraham Halimi. Published in Tunis in the Hebrew year תער”ב (1912) by his son, Rabbi Faraj Halimi, and printed by Wazan & Barami Press. At the beginning of the book is a unique feature: a list of donors and supporters from various Jewish communities across North Africa — including Tunis, Setif, Labèche, Gneshla, and Algiers — who helped fund the publication. This offers valuable insight into the network of Jewish communal support for religious publishing during the early 20th century. Hardcover binding. Well-preserved for its age. A significant item for collectors of North African Judaica, Sephardic sermons, and the history of Jewish printing in Tunisia.
