Sefer Ikrim. Venice, [1618], Supplements in the Hand of the Outstanding Grammarian, Rabbi Wolf Heidenheim
Sefer Ikrim on the foundations of roots of emunah by Rabbi Yosef Albo with the Eitz Shatul elucidation by Rabbi Gedalya Lipshitz, disciple of the Maharam of Lublin. Venice, [1618]. 144 leaves. 29 cm. The title page bears the signature of Rabbi Wolf Heidenheim. In chapter 25, Rabbi Wolf manually recreated the censor’s omissions. Rabbi Heidenheim was one of the greatest grammarians. He dedicated himself to publishing precise Chumashim and prayer books and studied hymns and their commentaries. The Chatam Sofer wrote that if not for his works, these hymns would have been forgotten (Teshuvot Chatam Sofer, Choshen Mishpat, siman 79). Rubbed, antiquated leather binding. Aging stains. Very fine condition.
