Vayikra, third volume of the Five Books of the Torah, with Haftarot, Rashi commentary, Ba'al HaTurim and Siftei Chachamim, and with the Chida's commentary Nachal Kedumim on the Torah and Nachal Sorek on the Haftarot. Safed, [1833]. Printed by Rabbi Yisrael Bak of Berdychiv.
Some of the words on the title page are printed in red ink. This copy is missing Shir HaShirim.
This is the second or third book printed by Rabbi Yisrael Bak in Safed. The other volumes of the Five Books of the Torah are unknown; possibly only the volume of Vayikra was printed. Simultaneously, Bak printed another edition without the Chida's commentary [about this edition see: M. Benayahu, R. Yisrael Bak's printing press in Safed, Areshet, Vol. 4, pages 277-278; see also: Y. Yudlov, Ginzei Yisrael, Jerusalem 1985, page 30, no. 58, for details about another edition printed in Safed at the same time].
Signature on the title page: "Ezra Douek HaCohen…". [Great Torah scholars, rabbis and teachers descended from the Douek family which was an important family of Cohanim in Aleppo].
125 leaves (instead of 137 leaves, without Shir HaShirim). 20 cm. Good condition. Stains, worming. Ink outline around the book's title and place of printing. New binding.
