Hebrew & Aramaic. Pentateuch & Haphtaroth). Chamishah Chumshei Torah.

Later diced calf, upper cover with “J.Jackson” tooled in gilt, expertly rebacked. 4to. Vinograd, Amsterdam 25; Fuks, Amsterdam 154; Silva Rosa 10.
Menasseh ben Israel for Henricus Laurentius, Amsterdam: 1631.
This edition of the Pentateuch evidently received a very limited distribution. Despite the title-page, the Megiloth was not issued alongside it.
