Rare and exclusive Volume: The Rambam’s Commentary on all of the Mishnayot, Including the Complete Seder Zeraim. Cracow 1604.


This is a most exclusive copy. A large and magnificent volume, that contains for the first time ever, the complete commentary of the Rambam on all of Mishnayot. From the outset of Jewish printing, there had only been one attempt at this project, which took place in Naples, Italy in 1492. However, this only included the Rambam’s commentary on Kodashim and Taharot alone.

This volume is testimony to an incredible historical Torah milestone, as well as a significant bibliographical achievement.

A most monumental and exclusive copy, in a light-colored leather binding, with antique embossing.
Cracow 1604. Printed by Yitzchak Prostitz.
Otzar Hasefer Computerized Database, No. 59629 and 59644.

Complete and magnificent copy.
