About the work and its author
Masoret Hamasoret, as its title indicates, deals with the Biblical Mesorah, which is an original way to preserve the precise version of the Bible according to which there are varied types of words that appear a known number of times and rules of vowelization and pronunciation based on strict criteria. The comments and notation of the Mesorah document the precise Biblical version, for example, plene spelling and deficient spelling, protecting it from errors.
The author, Rabbi Eliyahu ben Asher Halevi Levita Ashkenazi, known as Rabbi Eliyahu Bachur or The Bachur (1469-1549) was a Hebrew linguist who studied the Mesorah during the Renaissance. Was a famed grammarian and one of the first Yiddish writers.
At its beginning, an introduction and fine, lengthy poem by the author and at its end, Sefer Tuv Taam with a special title page.
The author wrote many grammar books, the most famed being The bachur of Dikduk Eliyahu, which was even translated into Latin. His books were praised by leading contemporary rabbis such as the Chida and the Pri Megadim.
