Madison: Hispanic Seminary of Medieval Studies, 1992. Scholarly commentary, notes, and transcription of this medieval manuscript Bible held in the Escorial library, of interest partly for being a rare Hebrew-based Bible, "one of the few produced in Spain for the use of Jews". A translation into Spanish from the Hebrew, the transcribed manuscript includes the books from Genesis 25.17 to 2 Kings 23.4; the missing parts are supplied from E7 and E4, two other manuscripts in the Escorial. The editor discusses linguistics, primarily. Critical commentary in English; the transcribed text is untranslated, though there are many linguistic notes.

Text clean; xlv, blank, 6 b/w facsimiles; 482 pages, colophon.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. Quarto.
