Rare. Kehillat Yaakov – Kadesh Yisrael. Venice, [1598]. Limited edition.
Large, comprehensive elucidation on Kohelet (with text) by Rabbi Baruch ben Rabbi Baruch.
Two sections: Kehillat Yaakov on the right and Kadesh Yisrael on the left.
In their approbations on the last leaf, the Rabbis of Venice note that only a limited number of copies were printed.
The approbation from Adar 1598, printed on one side of the leaf, was apparently added after the printing.
Detailed indexes by Rabbi Moshe Alfalas.
