Kabbalah: Otiyot D’Rabi Akiva zt”l. Venice, 1546.

Otiyot D’Rabi Akiva is a unique Midrash, unusual in nature compared to the classic Midrashim – “Midrash Rabbah” and “Midrash Tanchuma”. Its origin has not been clarified. This copy is complete. On the opening page is a rare etching of the Dome of the Rock, built with the Muslim conquest of Eretz Yisrael, on which is written “Beit Hamikdash”, and the words of the Prophet Chagai: “Great will be this house, said Hashem Tzivakos”. This engraving was used as the printer’s mark of Antonio Giustiniani, who established a Hebrew printing house a year prior to this book’s printing (1545).

Venice, 1546, printed by Marco Antonio Giustiniani. From the library of famed collector Frederik Muller.

12 pages. Very good condition. A small number of brown stains. Cardboard binding.

On the right side of the binding is affixed the label of famous Dutch collector Frederik Muller of Amsterdam. Muller was a Dutch bibliographer and book collector who lived from 1817-1881.

Complete and rare.
