Talmud Bavli – Masechet Erchin. Basel, 1580. From the Early Printings of the Talmud.


This edition was printed after the burning of the Talmud in Italy in 1554, and was greatly impacted by it, as the Christian censorship changed the wording in many places. (See: Rabbi N. N. Rabinowitz, article on the printing of the Talmud, pgs. 74-79).

Talmud Bavli, Masechet Erchin. Basel, 1580. Ambrosius Frobenius printing.
One volume from the edition of Talmud Bavli printed by Christian scholar Frobenius in the years 1578-1581.
Basel, 1580. A small number of worm holes, slightly worn and stained, but overall in good condition.
36 pages.
Otzar Hasefer Computerized Database, No. 34298.
