THE FIRST HEBREW BOOK PRINTED IN COLOGNE. THE FIRST BIBLICAL POLYGLOT WITH AN ETHIOPIC TRANSLATION. The title of this work is misleading; “Chaldaea” not being Aramaic but Ethiopic. The editor, Johann Potken learned Ethiopic from Abyssinian monks in Rome and edited the first Ethiopic Psalter printed in 1513. The present edition is the first appearance of the Ethiopic version in a polyglot edition.
