3. Hebrew Group A

Hebrew Group A forms the basis of most scholarship on Mishle Sendebar prior to Morris Epstein's 1967 study. The editions and translations by Cassel (1888) and Habermann (1946) rely on Group A texts, many of which are closely related to - or copies of - the 1516 Constantinople print, found in Divre ha-Yamim shel Moshe Rabbenu. Constantinople: R. Samuel Ibn Naamias, 1516.
