The Building of the Third Temple According to the Prophecy of Ezekiel, by Revd. M. Edrehi. London, 1836
Printed diagram of the Third Temple, to be built in the future, with Hebrew writing, titled in Hebrew and in English.
This wondrous diagram was drawn by the kabbalist Rabbi Moshe Edrei (!).
Rabbi Moshe bar Yitzchak Edre'i [c. 1775-1842] was born in Mogador and studied in Rabat. He was a disciple of Rabbi Yehudah Anhori. He later immigrated to Europe where he lived in several countries. Already in 1792, while he was yet very young, he arranged Torat Chaimֲ (London, 1792), kabbalistic studies for Friday nights. Aside from being a scholar of both the hidden and the revealed [aspects of Torah], he was also a scholar of general knowledge. He lived in Amsterdam, where he learned ancient languages. He printed his bookֲ Yedei Moshe (sermons and eulogies) in Amsterdam in 1729. He moved on from there to England, and towards the end of his life he ascended to Jerusalem. He authored the renowned book Ma'aseh Nissim - She'erit Yisrael about the Sambatyon river and the ten tribes. More material about him is included with this lot.
