Complete, elegant set. Four parts in four volumes, particularly large format.
This edition includes many compositions and commentaries from leading Torah scholars, some of which are published here for the first time. This edition also includes Masorah Gedola and Masorah Ketana, copied from earlier editions of Mikraot Gedolot printed in Venice, with the correction of some of the errors which had crept into the Masorah compositions. The publisher, editor and printer of this edition was R.
