Ohel Ya'akov. Frankfurt am Oder, 1719, First Edition
Ohel Ya'akov - elucidations on the aggadahs in Ein Ya'akov, a compilation of midrashim and novellae on Yoreh Deah, by Rabbi Ya'akov Kahana Shapira, Av Beit Din of Tiktin. With fifteen approbations from the geonim of Poland and Ashkenaz. Entirely illustrated title page, slightly cropped at the upper margins, rare.
The author was a native of Nemirov, and the Cossack riots [גזירות ת"ח-ת"ט] occurred when he was six years old, killing thousands of members of his community. In the introduction, he tells a little about his experiences at the time and about his wanderings and his rabbis.
[2] 78 leaves. 29 cm.
Moderate-fine condition, the first and last leaves are lightly restored, lack in part of the text on the last leaf. Dismantled front binding.
