Sefer HaAruch by Rabbi Nassan of Rome, Dictionary of Talmudic words, second edition, Pissarro, 1517.


Sefer HaAruch authored by Rabbi Nassan ben Rabbi Yechiel of Rome, one of the basic Seforim for understanding difficult words of the Tamud and the Midrashim of the Sages. Rabbi Nassan, who was one of the greatest rabbis of Rome and headed a great yeshiva, explains in his foreword why he authored the Sefer: וְהֵעִירִי אֲשֶׁר בְּיָדוֹ הַכֹּל, כָּל יוֹצֵר פַּחְרָא, לְסַדֵּר סֵפֶר הֶעָרוּךְ לְכָל רוֹכְבֵי צְחוֹרָה, תֵּיבוֹת הַקָּשׁוֹת מִתּוֹרָה שֶׁבְּעַל פֶּה לְחַבְּרָהּ, כָּל אֲשֶׁר יְבַקְּשֶׁנָּה יִמְצָאֶנָּה בִּמְהֵרָה לְשִׁבְרָהּ, בְּלִי עִצָּבוֹן וְעָמָל בְּמָקוֹם שֶׁהִיא מֻבְחָרָה". Many of Gedolei Hador discussed his words and cited them, apparently the most prominent of them being Rashi. 


[3], 5-102, 85-178 leaves. 

(The title page is missing and possibly an additional leaf). The first three leaves are detached, stains, restorations to several leaves (affecting the text), some moth holes, bound in a new elegant leather binding. Good general condition.
