Basileæ: Ludovic König, 1621. Small, thick 8vo, pp. [16], 960, [71]; contemporary full calf, joints cracked, cords holding; one-inch sliver missing from top spine panel, some worming in the margins of Q1-R2 and 2H1-2K6; a number of leaves browned and/or foxed, else a very good, sound copy. Buxtorf was a leading Hebrew scholar of the late 16th and early 17th centuries, and a compiler of two important Hebrew-Latin dictionaries. The one at hand should not be confused with the Lexicon Chaldaicum, Talmudicum, et Rabbinicum, which he left incomplete upon his death in 1629 and which his son completed and published in 1639. Vancil, p. 40; Graesse I, p. 584. Item #44537
