Shnei Luchot HaBrit. Magnificent and Important Edition. Shla"h Nacha"t


Shnei Luchot HaBrit - renowned sefer by Rabbi Yeshayahu HaLevi Horowitz, known as the Shla"h, after the title of his sefer. Amsterdam, 1698. Complete copy.


Frontispiece preceding the standard title page with a large copperplate etching signed by the artist Avraham ben Ya'akov. This renowned artist was a convert to Judaism who also signed the famous Hebrew map in the Passover Haggadah printed in Amsterdam in 1695. Additional title pages for  Vavei HaAmudim and  Toldot Adam. Stunning print, special complete edition of  Sefer HaShla"h. With Vavei HaAmudim by the author's son, Rabbi Shabtai Sheftel Horowitz, and indices for Toldot Adam. This important  sefer was printed in the year "נח"ת" and it became very sought-after in the course of time, has a special segulah. This is due to the birth of the Ba'al Shem Tov, progenitor of the Chassidic movement, that same year.
