Sefer Raziel ha-Malakh. Amsterdam, Mozes ben Abraham Mendes Coutinho, 1701

The book of the first man, Adam Kadmon, given to him by the angel Raziel. Sefer Raziel is a collection of mystical, cosmological and magical Hebrew texts, compiled not much earlier than the 17th century. This edition was prepared by R. Isaac ben Abraham of Neustadt from a manuscript in his possession: in the preface Isaac expresses the belief that the presence of the book would protect the owner's house from fire.

At the end of the book various magical precepts and sigils.
