Biblia Hebraica - Goral HaGra Tanach, Amsterdam 1701.

Presented here is a complete copy of the Hebrew Bible printed in Amsterdam in 1701. According to tradition, this was the preferred edition by which to conduct the 'Goral HaGra', since it is printed in two columns with 'Pesuchos and Stumos'. It is well known that R. Aryeh Levine of Jerusalem used this very edition of the Tanach when conducting the Goral HaGra. 
 
With three Separate title pages. The first is a striking copper engraving; an artists' depiction of Moses and Aaron. The second lists the virtues of this edition in Hebrew, and the third in Latin. 
 
In very good-excellent condition. Bound in a new full-leather binding. Gilded edges. Printed on high-quality white paper. 
 
[6], 292 leaves. 293-306, [4] leaves. Measures approx. 15.5cm. 

Vinograd, Amsterdam 734.
