Va-Yikra Yitzhak – Dedication
Sefer Va-Yikra Yitzhak, on the Torah and homilies, parts I-II. Rabbi Rahamim Nissim Yitzhak Palagi. Izmir, [1905]. Printed by Haim Avraham Di Shigura.
On verso of title page is a poetic dedication [perhaps in author’s handwriting]. Under the dedication is the Gregorian date.
Rabbi Rahamim Nissim Yitzhak, author of “Yafeh La-Lev,” was born in 1814 to his father Rabbi Hayim Palagi. Amongst the leading sages of Izmir, he published 18 books on Halachah and Agadah. The dedication is apparently from his very last days, as the date that is recorded [by the reciever?] “27.2.07,” and Rabbi Rahamim passed away on 4 Nissan 5677 (19.3.1907).
[2], 42, 40 leaves. 30.3 cm. Good condition, dry paper, slightly torn in a few of the margins. New binding.
