Rare! One of the Only Complete Copies in the World: Sefer Shulchan Arba by Rabbeinu Bahya - Hamburg? 1706. Has never been Auctioned
Sefer Shulchan Arba, the famed book by Rabbeinu Bahya. The book is divided into four chapters, the first three dealing with Dinei Se'udah and Mussar and the fourth with the future Se'udah of the Tzaddikim in a whale-skin Sukkah. Edited by Shlomo ben Rabbi Zvi Hirsch of Laktsh, the son-in-law of Rabbi Aharon of Greiditz. Apparently, printed in Hamburg in 1706. 32, 37-46, [2] leaves. 15 cm. Binding matching the time of printing with a parchment spine. Minor blemishes. Slightly loose sheets. Good overall condition.
Rare!
A complete copy, which is extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, there are only few copies in the world of this ancient book; the copies documented in the National Library and in the Chabad Library are incomplete. The only documentation of a complete copy of the book, except for this one, is in the library of the British Museum. In addition, an additional copy of the book was never auctioned.
