Sefer Birkas Avraham - With Rare Approbation of Chacham Tzvi, Venice 1696. Only Edition.

Sefer Birkas Avraham was authored by R. Avraham Brudo of Constantinople, and contains Torah insights, sermons and novella to Parshas Bereishis. This work was published with the approbation of leading Torah scholars, including, R. Tzvi Ashkenazi (author of “Chacham Tzvi”), R. Avraham Bruda of Prague (author of “Eishel Avraham”), and others. 

This work bears one of the only known approbations of R. Tzvi Ashkenazi of Hamburg - The Chacham Tzvi, who praises the author and his work immensely. He writes explicitly that never has he given an approbation to any other work aside from this one. 

In moderate-poor condition. Marginal corrections in old oriental hand seen at times. Printed on high-quality thick paper. Extensive worming throughout, at times severely affecting text. Bound in an old, worn binding; first several leaves detached. 

[6], 103 pp. 


Vinograd, Venice 1482.
