Sha'arei Dura. Lublin, 1574. Dozens of Scholarly Glosses from the Period - Handwritten
Sefer Sha'arei Dura by Rabbi Yitzchak Halevi of Dura, with the Mevoh She'arim commentary - Lublin, 1574 - dozens of ancient scholarly glosses from the period - incomplete copy
At the beginning of the book, a stamp: "בית המדרש דק"ק אשכנזים".
On leaf 76b, the writer quotes from Sefer Torat Chatat by the Rema which was published in 1570.
Sefer Sha'arei Dura, which was authored in the 13th century, is one of the basic and most important Halachic books on Issur and Heiter and it is quoted many times by the Rema and the Beis Yosef. Over the generations, written on the margins of the sheets of the manuscript were many glosses by contemporary sages, Rishonim and Acharonim. The most known of these are the glosses by Rabbi Yisroel Isserlen, author of Terumat Hadeshen. Until the printing of the Shulchan Aruch, the Sha'arei Dura was the most important Ashkenazic work on Issur and Heiter.
This edition is the fifth (the first being the Krakow, 1532 one). Since the varied editions of the Sha'arei Dura were each based on a different manuscript, to a certain extent, each of the editions that were published in the 16th century can be considered a "first edition" (see: Rabbi David Daviltzki, Mavo LeSha'arei Dura of his edition, p. 17 and onwards).
2-110 leaves. The title page is missing. 30 cm. Most of the leaves are in good condition. Tears to the first five leaves, not affecting the text.
