Arvit and Sefirat HaOmer Prayers According to Kabbalah - Brno, 1763 - Unknown Miniature Edition
"Sefirat HaOmer According to Kabbalah and Ma'ariv in its Time". Brno (Brünn, Czechoslovakia), 1763. Printed by the widow Francesca Neumann.
Miniature edition, complete copy in good condition, with contemporary leather binding.
At the beginning of the book is the Ma'ariv prayer, unvowelized, followed by the Sefirat HaOmer, including prayers recited before counting the Omer, followed by a separate page for each day of the Omer with Kabbalistic kavanot.
This edition is unknown and is not listed in the Bibliography of the Hebrew Book and in the Vinograd-Rosenfeld records. To the best of our knowledge, this is a Unicum - a single copy, which does not exist in any library in the world.
[47] leaves. 8 cm. Good condition. Stains. First leaf has cellotape repairs. Contemporary leather binding with minor damages.
