Description

A great number of valuable Biblical Hebrew manuscripts are conserved in Spanish libraries. They are of various content and some of them are specially significant for many reasons, one of them having been used in the editing of such important Polyglot Bibles like the Complutensian or the Antwerp Bible. A new catalogue describing the Hebrew collections in the different libraries in Madrid has been published. An overview of El Escorial and Complutensian University Libraries was given in Hebrew Studies 45 (2004). Now, the other main libraries' collections of manuscripts in Madrid are given, analyzing the most significant manuscripts. I have already mentioned, on previous occasions, the need to bring together, in a single catalogue, the collection of Hebrew documents to be found in the libraries of Madrid. In a previous article published in 2004, (1) I presented the collections housed in the libraries of El Escorial, the Complutensian University of Madrid, and the Royal Palace. On this occasion, I will bring together those manuscripts kept in the National Library, the Lazaro Galdiano Museum, the National Historical Archive, and the Royal Academy of History. We shall see below, how these collections of Hebrew manuscripts were constituted in the different libraries.
