Yudlov 22; Yaari 19; Yerushalmi pl. 27.

A RARE EDITION. THE ONLY HAGADAH PUBLISHED IN RIVA DI TRENTO AND THE ONLY HAGADAH PUBLISHED IN THE YEAR 1561. Jacob Marcaria was a physician-scholar who published books covering all branches of Jewish scholarship, and often added lucid and erudite prefaces of his own to all the Hebrew books he printed. This Hagadah contains not only a short preface by Marcaria, but also seven pages of his own commentary to the Seder. According to Yudlov, Marcaria’s additional commentary has never been republished.
