Chessed L'Avraham. Sulzbach, 1685. First Edition
Chessed L'Avraham. Fundamental Kabalistic work by Rabbi Avraham Azulai. Sulzbach, 1685. First edition.
76 leaves. 19.5 cm. Kabalistic sketches.
The author, Rabbi Avraham Azulai was the great-grandfather of the Chid"a. A different edition was printed in Amsterdam that same year, but it was full of mistakes and omissions, as his grandson the Chida wrote in "Shem HaGedolim" [books, Chessed L'Avraham].
New binding. The corners of the title page and a number of solitary leaves have been supplied with a reproduction, without loss. Tear to the last leaf, with loss of solitary letters. Aging stains. Fine-very fine condition.
