Babylonian Talmud with commentaries, Amsterdam edition, [1644-1648]. Immanuel Benveniste Printing Press. Twelve volumes, each containing several tractates, arranged in following manner: * Berachot-Zera’im-Pesachim. * Shabbat-Zevachim. * Eiruvin-Niddah-Yevamot. * Rosh HaShanah-Yoma-Sukkah-Ta’anit-Shekalim-Megillah. * Chagigah-Megillah-Ta’anit-Shekalim-Mo’ed-Katan. * Ketubot-Kiddushin-Chagigah-Beitzah-Mo’ed-Katan. * Gittin-Nedarim-Sotah-Nazir. * Bava-Batra-Sanhedrin. * Avodah Zarah-Zevachim-Menachot. * Menachot-Bechorot-Erchin-Me’ilah-Kritut-Temurah. * Zevachim-Menachot-Chullin. * Niddah-Taharot. All tractates complete [excluding one missing title page on Tractate Gittin] and in general good condition. Some volumes contain fine ancient bindings – leather-covered wood. Ancient signatures and ownership notations from owners of tractates throughout years: “Safeguard for signer, Elizer Za’ir Polack”, “let it be known that this book belongs to… Avraham of Boskowitz”, “Hillel son of Rabbi Avraham of Boskowitz”, “Moshe Katz of Fürth”, “Yechiel Michel son of Rabbi Avraham Yosef Yehuda Chaim of Frankfurt, resident of Metz…”, “Naftali Hertz of Halpern family”, “Gavriel Mia Segal”, “Bendet Zentzheim”, and more. Erudite glosses in Ashkenazi writing throughout some tractates. Notation at end of one volume: “Since you are not supposed to place a stumbling block before the blind I will sign my exalted erudite and sharp brother, Rabbi Simcha, presently rabbi of congregation of Fischach as owner of the book”. Following leaf contains lengthy notation in German and signature in Hebrew: “Zekel Bamberger HaLevi” – The Ga’on Rabbi Zekel Bamberger Av Beit Din of Kissingen, son of Rabbi Yitzchak Dov Bamberger – rabbi of Würzburg author of ‘Yad HaLevi’. His brother, Rabbi Simcha, noted as owner of book, is the Ga’on Rabbi Simcha Bamberger Av Beit Din of Fischach and Aschaffenburg. Apparently, the glosses in the book are in handwriting of one of brothers [one gloss: “…difficult… and Rabbi… resolved…”]. 12 volumes. 26 cm. Majority of volumes in good condition. Several volumes in good-fair condition. Stains and wear, several detached leaves, restored tears. Some volumes contain damaged wood and leather bindings. On some, remnants of metal clasps.
