___

The Arizal’s glosses on the entire Zohar, edited by Rabbi Moshe Zacuto, the Ramaz.

One of the foundational sefarim that established the correct nusach of Zohar.

The Ramaz writes the following in his closing remarks on the sefer, “The mistakes that…were found…in the Zohar with letters being exchanged and other matters…and missing text…are numerous…if it hadn’t been for the Ari….”

“This is my advice to every intelligent person: Hurry to purchase this sefer, even if it is very expensive, and correct the problematic parts of the Zohar by hand on the page” (excerpted from the words of the Ramaz).

Content up until leaf 33 was edited by the kabbalist Rabbi Yosef Chamitz who published the sefer, and from leaf 33 and on was edited by the Ramaz (see leaf 79b).

Venice, 1658. First edition. 36, 30, 70 leaves (inconsecutive pagination). Page size: 21 cm. Printed without title page. Good condition. Rare. New leather binding.

Stefansky, Sifrei Yesod p. 103.
