Jerusalem : No Publisher. 1944. Hardcover. Rab4 heb1 . FT Small 4to. 11 339 pages. In Hebrew. Inscribed by Schreiber. SUBJECTS : Talmud. Avodah zarah � commentaries. OCLC lists 11 copies worldwide. A member of the anti-Maimonides faction Meiri 1249-1316 was born and lived in Perpignan Provence and was part of an important family. He corresponded with Solomon ben Abraham Adret though Meiri did not completely support restriction of thought and inquiry as his acquaintance did; he himself had a great interest in secular studies. Meiri was influential due to an "extraordinary literary fecundity" and his ability to synthesize the work of others into a unified Jewish culture. Due to the length of his writings many works were not published until even the 20th century. Bet ha-behirah took him more than a decade to write and is an incredibly dense study of the Talmud. He also wrote among other things commentaries on Proverbs and Psalms a commentary on the Haggadah and Sefer ha-Middot a guide to conduct. Ta-Shma EJ Ex library in library binding.

Talmud -- Commentaries. Talmud. Hullin -- Commentaries. Zivhe Reiyah has special title page. Other Titles: Zivhe reiyah. Kook 1865-1935 was a �rabbinical authority and thinker; first Ashkenazi chief rabbi of modern Erez Israel. Born in Greiva now Griva Latvia Kook received the type of Jewish education that was customary in 19th-century Eastern Europe. At a very early age he showed independence of mind and far-reaching curiosity. Desirous to supplement his traditional education which was restricted to the study of Talmud he undertook the study of the Bible Hebrew language Jewish and general philosophy and mysticism. In 1888 he was appointed rabbi of Zaumel and in 1895 became rabbi of Bausk now Bauska . In 1904 he immigrated to Erez Israel where he served as rabbi of Jaffa and the surrounding towns. There he fostered close ties with people of all shades of opinion and belief. He identified with the Zionist movement thus antagonizing the rabbinical establishment and at the same time engaged in a vigorous debate with the irreligious pioneers and laid the foundations for a Religious Zionism that did not settle for the political pragmatism of the Mizrachi the Religious Zionist Movement or that of Binyamin Ze�ev Theodor Herzl the founder of the Zionist Movement but sought to view Zionism as a process of redemption of repentance and of an overall Jewish renaissance. Rabbi Kook was a man of complexity whose persona unified opposing spiritual worlds: the Lithuanian Torah scholarship with the hasidic spiritual experience a commitment to halakhah and Jewish tradition with a modern worldview and Western culture and philosophy a tendency towards spirituality and mysticism with full involvement in the practical matters of rabbinic and public leadership. In his effort to urge traditional Jews to fulfill the Zionist ideal he traveled to Europe in 1914 to participate in a conference of Agudat Israel. Unable to return to Erez Israel because of outbreak of World War I Kook spent the war years 1914�18 in Switzerland and accepted a temporary position as the rabbi of the Mahzikei ha-Dat congregation in London where he was very active in trying to influence the Jews of England to back Zionist political activity. Upon returning to Palestine after the war Kook was appointed chief rabbi of Jerusalem and with the formation of the chief rabbinate in 1921 he was elected the first Ashkenazi chief rabbi of Palestine� Zinger and Ish-Shalom in EJ 2007 .

Berlin: Be-Defus Yulius Zittenfeld. 1862. AVA HEB2 RAB7 ger7new . Hardcover 8vo 520 pages 22 cm. In Hebrew. SUBJECT S : Jewish law. Judaism -- Customs and practices. In Hebrew. Other Titles: Haye adam. Danzig 1748-1820 was a �codifier. Born in Danzig he studied in Prague at the yeshivot of Joseph Liebermann and Ezekiel Landau. True to his family tradition he refused to derive any material gain from his studies and earned his livelihood as a merchant. Although required at times to travel long distances to trade fairs in Germany he continued to learn with great devotion. From 1794 to 1812 he served as dayyan in Vilna in an honorary capacity; only in his old age after losing his possessions was he obliged to accept remuneration for his services. Danzig wrote a number of halakhic works but his fame rests upon two publications: 1 Hayei Adam "Man's Life" covering all the laws of the Shulhan Arukh dealing with daily conduct based on the Orah Hayyim sections with an addendum called Nishmat Adam in which he justified his decisions which were not in accordance with the accepted view; and 2 Hokhmat Adam "Man's Wisdom" covering all the laws of the Shulhan Arukh dealing with the dietary regulations etc. contained in the Yoreh De�ah section with an addendum called Binat Adam which included discussions on various relevant halakhic subjects and responsa. Both works were initially intended for youthful students and for educated laymen not fully versed in rabbinic literature who in attempting to determine Jewish law found themselves unable to grapple with the intricacies of the Shulhan Arukh and with its maze of conflicting opinions. In these works Danzig shows himself possessed of considerable pedagogical talent. He arranges the laws methodically defines his terms lucidly and precisely presents the various views and their sources and renders his own decisions and his reasons for them � all in clear simple language. The pleasant tenor of his writing which is suffused with unquestioning faith and true piety contributed largely toward the acceptance of his works. Hayyei Adam appeared in almost a hundred editions. Groups called �Hevrot Hayyei Adam� were formed in several communities for the regular study of the code. Danzig�s merits as a codifier were recognized also by renowned rabbis and codifiers who gave due consideration to his decisions. His books include much of historical interest with regard to the daily life of Lithuanian Jewry in his generation� Schlesinger in EJ 2007 . OCLC lists 1 copy worldwide U of Denver . Hinge repair.
