Tehillim and Eicha, The Hebrew Text. London, 1656. Printed by the Scottish historian William Robertson (“Presently resides and teaches Hebrew in London”).
Apparently the first Tehillim book printed in Hebrew in England. Printed approximately a year after the return of the Jews to England (after an absence of over 300 years).
The book was printed in a number of versions; the text in this copy is in Hebrew, without an English translation and without vowel symbols.
