CHIBAT YERUSHALAYIM – JERUSALEM 1844 – FIRST EDITION
Author: Rabbi Chaim ben Dov Berish HaLevi Horowitz.
The book praises the land of Israel and shares the history of the land based on the words of the Sages and traditional stories, regarding cities in Israel and tombs of tzaddikim. The book is known to be one of the sources for researchers regarding the period before the first wave of immigration. The title page includes an illustration of the Temple Mount, which is different than the famous illustrations of the Temple Mount.
On the title page, Yisrael Beck writes “the printing press, gift of Moshe and Yehudit,” as a token of appreciation for the generous gift of Moshe Montefiore, who provided him with one of the most sophisticated printing presses in the world.
The book is first edition, from 1844, but for some reason, the first three pages were added to it from the later edition, from Lemberg 1858, which the printer forged so that it would seem it was printed in Jerusalem.
At the end of the book, there are two pages in an unidentified handwriting and a bibliographic list of the books mentioned in the book. The title page is an impressive woodcut of the Temple Mount.
60 pages, and another three title pages and recommendations.
Condition: Good. Worn. A few pages are missing the corners. The last page was damaged by moths and was restored.
