  • 8°, 17 cm, (48) , 976 pp., extensive indices, advice to the bookbinder; fine contemporary vellum binding. To this edition an additional preface by Hotttinger, and a preface by Wits, taken from the Dutch edition. Engraved frontispiece, showing ritual and cultist scenes, fine copper engraved double page map of the Holy Land, with a cartouche. There are additions in numerous elaborate extensive foot notes of Joh.Heinricus Hottinger (1620-1667), the learned Swiss Hebraist, furnishing new material, especially on the Jewish sects, on which topic Hottinger was an outstanding specialist. The work embraces all aspects of religious and social life of the Jewish people in Antiquity, based on amazingly rich source material.The main sources are quoted verbatim. A comparative method prevails. Hottinger was deeply interested in mystical-Cabbalistical currents, so he can inform the reader about the theoretical and practical Cabbala, about the Gilgul theory, the transmigration of Souls; about Cabbalistical methods of interpretation:Notarikon, Gematria and Temura. His information on the Lurianic Cabbala is most accurate. Hottinger, a contemporary of Spinoza, travelled widely, and reports also some rare differences between the Ashkenazi and the Sephardi Jews, relating customs. At the time of the 'Messianistic' Sabbatian movement, he collected documents about this religious mass movement. On Hottinger's interest in mysticism cf. Scholem's Sabbatai Zebi.Fürst I. 339. Roth 345. A fine copy.
