summary

Uncommon. An attractive copy. According to Darlow & Moule, this miniature unpointed edition was intended to range with Plantin’s miniature edition of the Syriac N.T. (1574). It is interesting that both the Hebrew and Syriac Bibles were printed in the same minute Hebrew type

ff. 318; 271; 287; 352. Lightly browned with slight marginal stains. Contemporary calf, spine in compartments, rubbed and chipped at bottom of spine, with later box. 16mo
