Basileæ: Francisci Plateri & Joh. Philippi Richteri, 1698. Editio decima, 8vo, pp. [16], 976, [76]; engraved frontispiece portrait by J. G. Seiller, woodcut ornaments; full contemporary vellum, manuscript spine title (faded); later (mid-19th century) ownership inscription on pastedown, occasional ink notes and underlinings in a contemporary hand; all else generally very good and sound. 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. This edition not in Vancil; see also Brunet I, p. 1432 and Graesse I, p. 584 for other editions. Item #53147
