Summary

Elia Levita's Arguments (נימוקים) in relation to David Kimhi's dictionary of the Hebrew language known as the Book of Roots (ספר השרשים). The content is in alphabetical order with the lemmata underlined, in two columns. The gold tooling on the spine identifies the manuscript as Nofet Zuf by Abraham Broda: clearly a mistake since the manuscript includes a title page corresponding to the actual contents.

Notes

• Paper fragment reading: in ink "No. 17 Autograph. Unbekannt. / Abraham Broda. Nofet Zuf." and in pencil "52119 / 37 / [...]".
