Evronot. Riva di Trento, 1560. Especially Rare Sefer. Early Hand-Drawn Illustration

Evronot. Early work on tekufot, mazalot, and arranging the Jewish calendar, 'and the non-Jewish holidays and the day the Christians call ...' by Ya'akov Markriah. Riva di Trento, 1560. Rare sefer.

Fundamental work about the Hebrew calendar, with many diagrams and tables along the entire length of the sefer. Alongside the main work are supplements: Iggul D' Rabi Nachshon, Luach HaZahav attributed to Rabbi Sa'adiah Gaon, Tekufot Rabbi Yitzchak B'Rabi Shmuel, Sefer Re'amim and more.

Leaf bound at the beginning of this sefer with a large illustration of a palm with an inscription about the calculation of the Hebrew calendar. Italian script.

Rare sefer. To the best of our knowledge, it has not been offered at auction for a long time.

There are other copies that contain a folded leaf with a chart that is found in this copy on two pages. The publisher write that the table was printed on two leaves and this could cause errors, so he is printing it again with this chart on one leaf. This additional leaf is not found in this copy, as in other copies, and is not listed in MIf'al HaBibliographiah.
