“A monumental four-volume bibliography by a German Christian scholar.” S. Brisman, A History and Guide to Judaic Bibliography, Vol. I (1977), pp.13-5. According to Shunami (no. 50), the Bibliotheca Hebraea work is based chiefly upon the David Oppenheim Collection. Besides describing books, Wolf oftentimes supplies important biographical information concerning authors, especially his contemporaries.
