15 ff. (ii+15+ii) Leaf height: 218 mm, width: 176 mm.

Half leather binding with marbled paper and gold tooling on spine reading "ABRAHAM BRODA. NOFET ZUF. HEB. MS. NO. 33".
Acquisition:
Acquired by Enriqueta Rylands in 1901 from James Lindsay, 26th Earl of Crawford of Haigh Hall and later bequeathed to the The John Rylands Library.

Abstract:
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.
