LURIA, SHLOMO (MaHaRSHa’L).  Amudei Shlomo [commentary to Moshe of Coucy’s Sepher Mitzvath Gadol]. FIRST EDITION. Edited by R. Eliyahu Loanz. Text illustrations, two title pages. ff. 115, (2), 49. Ex-library, browned, previous owner’s marks. Recent boards. Sm. 4to. Vinograd, Basle 201; Stefansky, Sifrei Yesod 214. Basle, Konrad Waldkirch, 1600. The compendium by R. Moshe of Coucy (13th century), Sepher Mitzvoth Gadol (Semag), divided into two parts - negative and positive commandments - is probably the most important classification of the 613 precepts following Maimonides' Sepher HaMitzvoth.   One of the primary differences between the two Codes is that the Sema’g includes much Aggadic material, whereas Maimonides restricted himself to purely Halachic matters. * This copy bound with:  Eliyahu Loanz. Rinath Dodim [homiletic commentary to the Song of Songs]. ff. (1), 30. [Vinograd, Venice 203]. Basle, 1600.
