Mishnayot Orders Zera'im and Taharot with the Commentaries of the Rambam and the Rash of Sens - From the First Talmud Edition of Daniel Bomberg - Venice, 1522
Mishnayot Order Zera'im - with the commentaries of the Rambam and Rabbenu Shimshon (the Rash) of Sens, and Mishnayot Order Taharot - with the commentary of the Rash. Venice, 1522. Two parts (in one volume), from the first Talmud edition published by Daniel Bomberg.
In Bomberg's Talmud edition, Order Taharot was printed in two parts. One with the commentary of the Rambam, and one with the commentary of the Rash of Sens (there are significant differences between the two parts, see: R. N.N. Rabinowitz, Maamar al Hadpasat HaTalmud, Jerusalem 1952, pp. 41-42). This volume contains Order Taharot with the commentary of the Rash of Sens only.
Signature in early Italian-Ashkenazic script on the title page: "Eliezer Yitzchak HaKohen", and in Italian: "Lazaro Isac Sacerdote". Another handwritten inscription on p. 2a of Order Zera'im: "That which G-d granted his servant, Eliezer Yitzchak HaKohen of Palestro". The endpapers contain additional Italian inscriptions of the Palestro family of Kohanim (Sacerdote Palestro).
At the beginning of Order Taharot, ownership inscriptions (partially faded): "Acquisition of my money, Yitzchak son of R… Refael… of Porto"; "I attest Yitzchak son of R… Refael of Ventura from Porto, that I gave this book - Order Taharot… to the wise R. Avraham Yagel from Mo[nselice?], in exchange for other books…".
Several glosses. Lengthy gloss on p. 33b of Seder Zera'im.
Two parts in one volume. Order Zera'im: 86 leaves. Lacking 6 leaves with the preface of the Rambam to Order Zera'im and the foreword of the translator. Order Taharot: [112] leaves. Lacking title page. [4] blank leaves between the two parts (original). 36 cm. Fair condition. Stains. Wear to some leaves. Stains and traces of past dampness (severe dampstains to some leaves).
