Hardcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. Leinenband, 226 Seiten, Nachdruck der Ausgabe Nürnberg ca. 1730,

Small 4to, (21 x 17.5 cm), engraved frontispiece, title page in red and black, 27 engraved folding illustration plates. Contemporary vellum-backed boards. Edges stained red; old stamps and ownership inscriptions to front endpaper and title. [4], 226, [13] pp. Fundamental and richly illustrated work describing Jewish customs, rituals and costumes. This detailed description of Jewish ceremonial customs by Paul Christian Kirchner, a Jewish convert to Christianity, was first published in 1717 and then re-edited by the Christian Hebraist Sebastian Jacob Jugendres, who added his own commentary to the work, in 1724. The new edition included twenty-eight copperplate engravings (nine signed by Johann Georg Puschner) depicting a variety of Jewish rituals, including events marking the life cycle within the synagogue community, such as: circumcision, presentation of the first born, prayer at the synagogue, wedding, purification of the bride, the washing of the brother-in-law's feet, divorce, the feast of reconciliation, death rites, burials, the Sabbath, and various holiday ceremonies. The illustrations are accompanied by four pages of legends that clarify them in detail. The book was intended for a German audience. Kirchner sought to persuade other Jews to follow his lead and convert to Christianity. The copper engravings may have been made in the workshop of Johann Georg Puschner the Elder (1680 1749), either by himself or by his son (also called Johann Georg). Freimann S. 148; Lipperheide Oc 20; Hiler 500; cf. Fürst II, 190.
