Jacob Emden in the news



New York Herald March 23, 1857

Weird.

Now this would be a nice book sale. Sigh.



The Athaeneum August 1868

Some Emden/ Eybeschutz stuff, when it was current events (1753) (Jacob Herschel is R. Ya'akov Emden):




Not to mention this, R. Yaavetz's personal copy of Azaryah de Rossi's Me'or Enajim (in the JTS library).



Detail:



By the way, should one infer from לה' הארץ ומלואה that R. Yaakov Emden intended everyone to read this book? (Groan. If you get it, you get it.)
