Sefer Yere'im, on the laws of the 613 commandments, by R. Eliezer of Metz, one of the Baalei HaTosafot. Venice: Giorgio di Cavalli, 1566. First edition.
This new, abridged edition was edited by R. Binyamin son of R. Avraham Anav, and divided into twelve chapters, while the original composition comprised seven chapters. All subsequent editions, until Sefer Yere'im HaShalem (Vilna, 1892-1902, printed from a manuscript), were printed based on this edition.
Ownership inscriptions on the title page (some deleted), including of R. Yaakov Yisrael Heilperin of Drezden and R. Akiva Yisrael Wertheimer-Breslau (1778-1835), leading German Torah scholar, disciple of R. Akiva Eger, rabbi of Lübeck-Moisling and later chief rabbi of the state of Schleswig-Holstein.
Several glosses.
6, [5]-146 leaves. 19.5 cm. Good-fair condition. Stains, including dampstains and dark stains. Worming to first leaves and final leaf (affecting text on final leaf). Tears to several leaves, repaired with paper. Margins of title page and other leaves reinforced with paper. Handwritten inscriptions. Old binding, with damage and wear; spine partially detached.
