English summary: Two macroforms dating back to late antiquity are known under the Hebrew title Sefer ha-Razim (The Book of Secrets). Both are closely related in their history of tradition and redaction. Sefer ha-Razim I is a magical manual consisting of an introduction and seven chapters composed according to the cosmological scheme of seven heavens. Sefer ha-Razim II consists mainly of angelogical lists of names corresponding to the twelve months that are used for magical purposes. Whereas the first volume, which has already been published, provided the texts of the edition, the second volume contains an introduction, the German translation and a German commentary on both Sefer ha-Razim titles. German description: Unter dem hebraischen Titel Sefer ha-Razim (Das Buch der Geheimnisse) sind zwei bis in die Spatantike zuruckreichende Schriften bekannt, die uberlieferungs- und redaktionsgeschichtlich eng miteinander verwandt sind.Beim Sefer ha-Razim I handelt es sich um ein magisches Handbuch, das eminent magisches Material in das traditionelle kosmologische Schema der sieben Himmel eingearbeitet hat. In Sefer ha-Razim II dominieren angelologische Namenlisten, die den zwolf Monaten zugeordnet sind und magischen Zwecken dienen.Wahrend der erste, bereits erschienene Band der Ausgabe die Edition bietet, enthalt der vorliegende zweite Band eine Einleitung, die deutsche Ubersetzung und Kommentierung der beiden Schriften von Sefer ha-Razim.
