Scarce: Chumash Bereishit with Be'er Mayim Chayim. Zhitomir, 1852


Chumash Bereishit with Rash"i's commentary, Targum Onkelos and the renowned Chassidic commentary Be'er Mayim Chayim by Rabbi Chaim Tirer. Zhitomir, Shapira grandsons' press. Incomplete copy.

Two title pages, the first of which has some text in red ink. Several handwritten glosses, from close to the time of printing.


This edition of chumashim is extraordinarily hard-to-find. Mif'al HaBibliographiah lists this edition according to other parts, without having seen the important first part - Bereishit. The National Library did not have a copy for a long time, and just a few years ago received a single copy, incomplete at the beginning. Our utmost examination found that this book has never been offered at auction, and also not other books in this edition.


Undoubtedly one of the most important and rare books from the Zhitomir presses!


311 leaf, lacking leaves 309-310 bearing a small part of the Shabbat Chanukah haftarah and the grammatical rules, that are not part of the body of the chumash. The body of this book is present in its entirety. Mispaginated. 21.5 cm.

Moderate condition. Professional restoration to the title page and the following leaf, with slight damage to the text. Aging stains. Minimal worming perforations. New semi-leather binding.
