summary

First of an intended 4-part series entitled Minchath Kohen, of which only two volumes appeared. Indeed, even the issuance of this volume was incomplete, as the printer left out the planned sermons on the book of Shemoth in nearly all extant copies.

ff. 307. Ex-library, lightly stained. Later boards, upper cover detached. 4to.
