Kuntress HaRe’ayot / Sefer HaPardes – Königsberg, 1759
* "Sefer Halacha Achrona" and" Kuntress [pamphlet] HaRe’ayot", by Rabbi Aryeh Leib Epstein [author of "Hapardes"]. Königsberg, [1759]. “Halacha Achrona” is the Halachic ruling surrounded by “Be’er Ha’Achronim” – "Chiddushim" of "Achronim", and “Kuntress HaRe’ayot” – "Chiddushim" by author. Approbations of Rabbi Yehonatan Eibeschitz and additional rabbis.
Originally printed and bound with: * "Sefer HaPardes", by Rabbi Aryeh Leib Epstein. Königsberg, 1759.
The printing process was interrupted [as the author notes on leaf 42/2: “Due to printing expenses the author was forced to halt in the middle of the book' Halacha Achrona' and to print several pamphlets from his remaining books and this book, 'Sefer HaPardes', was published first…”]. As a result, significant variations as to the number of leaves in each copy exist [Bibliography Institute CD lists at least four various copies of "Sefer Hapardes " as far as pagination and number of leaves, see records 111284-111286].
Pagination in this copy: "Sefer Halacha Achrona": [1], 2 [instead of: 4]; 29-35, 37-42 leaves (leaf 36 apparently missing. Total: 18 leaves). "Sefer HaPardes": 9; 23; 127-136 leaves. (Total: 70 leaves).
