Abstract
The North French Hebrew Miscellany, produced around 1280 (with some additions from the early 14th century), contains various texts and served as a kind of private library for its patron. Benjamin the scribe wrote all the central and marginal texts. The volume is suffused with marginal illustrations and full-page illuminations made at different stages of the manuscript's production.
