Histoire De La Bible De Moïse Arragel HC In French Sonia Fellous. I’m 1422, on the instructions of Lord Luys de Guzman, rabbi Moïse Arragel of Guadalajara began work on the difficult task of translating the Old Testament into Castilian. The translation, and the rabbi's commentary, were a unique compilation of the doctrines of the Jewish and Christian faiths. The texts were accompanied by images in the style of illuminated manuscripts which were encoded with messages that only the rabbi could read. In this detailed study Fellous presents the historical and cultural context of the creation of the bible and discusses the text and commentary, and the stunning images that formed a significant part of it.
