Classics. Sefer HaShorashim. Venice 1529.
Important early lexicographical work on the Hebrew language, by R. Dovid Kimchi (RaDaK). The understanding of the Hebrew grammatical rules is essential to facilitate the study and understanding of the Torah.
R. Dovid Kimchi known by the acronym RaDaK (1160–1235), was one of great early commentators. He was one of the “Chachmei Provincesia”, a province in France, which was a great Torah center in the times of the Ba’alei Tosfos. He authored a comprehensive commentary on Tanach, in addition to several important grammatical works.
