Sefer Biurim, super-commentary to Rashi's commentary on the Torah, by R. Natan [Shapiro] of Horodna. Venice: Matteo Zanetti and Comino Presegno, [1593].
Includes several illustrations: map of Eretz Israel, Jacob's ladder, the Temple menorah, and more.
Although this work is attributed on the title page (and throughout the book) to R. Natan Shapiro, it is in fact a forgery. R. Natan's original super-commentary to Rashi's commentary on the Torah was published at the same time, by his son R. Yitzchak, under the title Imrei Shefer (Krakow and Lublin, 1590-1597). In his foreword to Imrei Shefer, R. Yitzchak declared Sefer Biurim to be a forgery. This book was then banned by the rabbis of Poland.
Copy of Rebbe Moshe Eichenstein of Zidichov-Veretski-Munkacs (1874?-1944; perished in Auschwitz), with many of his stamps from his tenure as rabbi of Zidichov.
Several glosses, emendations and corrections.
180 leaves. 20 cm. Good-fair condition. Stains, including dampstains. Wear. Marginal open tears (mostly to final leaves), slightly affecting text in several places, repaired with paper. New leather binding.
