Precious Find: Chumash Devarim with Be'er Mayim Chayim. Zhitomir, 1852
Chumash Devarim with Rash"i's commentary, Targum Onkelos and the renowned Chassidic commentary Be'er Mayim Chayim by Rabbi Chaim Tirer. Zhitomir, Shapira grandsons' press.
Two title pages, the first of which has some of the text in red ink. Several handwritten glosses, from close to the time of printing.
This edition of chumashim is extraordinarily hard-to-find.
Mif'al HaBibliographiah only saw some parts of this edition. The National Library has only a single copy, incomplete at the end. Our thorough checking found that this book has never been offered at auction, nor have other sections of this edition ever been offered at auction.
Undoubtedly one of the most important and rare books from the Zhitomir presses!
152 leaf, counted in its entirety. Mispaginated. 21.5 cm.
Aging stains. Minimal worming perforations. New semi-leather binding.
