The first complete edition
of the Old Testament was
printed in Soncino in 1488 C.E.
A book of the Psalms was
printed in 1477 in Bologna. A
book of the Pentateuch was
printed in this same place in
1482. A book containing the
five Megiloth was printed there
in 1482. A book containing the
prophets was printed in Son-
cino in 1485 and a book con-
taining the Hagiographa was
printed in Naples in 1486.
There is no record, however, of
any complete Bible being
printed before the 1488 Son-
cino edition.

Bible Study at Night
(Copyright, 1958, JTA, Inc.)
Some Jews refrain from
studying the Bible at night.
These Jews restrict their
night time study to the oral law
of the Talmud. Some conunen-

taries base this pattern on the

, experience of Moses at Mount

Sinai. When Moses spent his 40
days and 40 nights on Mount
Sinai he had only one way of

telling whether it was day or
night.
During the daylight hours the

a matter of the letter of the
law. The Oral Law represents
the quality of mercy since it is
