Sefer Nizachon, Liber Nizachon Rabbi Lipmanni. Essay on the Bible to respond to the Christian allegations against Judaism. Rabbi Yom Tov Lipman Milhausen. Altdorf, 1644. First edition.
“Written by Rabbi Lipman, to win over the Sadducees and Christians, skeptics and mockers forever. Printed here in the Yeshiva of Altdorf [= the University of Altdorf…] with great scrutiny”. Interesting illustrated title page, Latin title page and foreword. Handwritten remarks and signatures in Latin.
[14], 512, [24] pages. 19.5 cm. Fair condition, most of the book is in good condition. The original parchment binding however has tough moth holes, which have slightly damaged the book itself, mostly the first and last leaves.
The Hebrew part was printed in Altdorf. The Latin part (starting on page 201) was printed in Nuernberg.
