It appears that the Jewish owner of this book (Barukh?) censored the Christological passages in the colophon. Is תשמ a year? (1880? The handwriting doesn't seem that late) Fabrizio Quaglia adds a potential explanation here: "At the bottom of Hebrew title page of the Vienna bilingual Isny 1541 Tišbi (http://footprints.ccnmtl.columbia.edu/footprint/10608/) there is an inscription with spaced words ברוך ברוך תשמ that I translate “Blessed blessed Be a Messiah Year”. תש"מ stands for תהא משיח שנת See website (http://chabadpedia.co.il/index.php/%D7%AA%D7%A9%22%D7%9E). If this were a way of writing the year in Hebrew it would be 5740, C.E. 1979/80, but definitely the handwriting doesn’t seem that late. The hopeful owner was a Jew who wanted to add his own Messianic reference after polemically blackening the passage indicating the Christian year with the sentence לביאת משיחנו וגאולנו ישוע יחברר שמו לעולמי עולמיו (“… since the coming of our Messiah and our salvation, Jesus will make His name known to the worlds”) and the subsequent submission to Christ."- Percent complete
