At the top of the title page is the ownership listings of Rabbi David Piazza.
Rabbi David Piazza was the Rabbi of Firenze in the 17th Century. His responsa appear in Shu”t Efer Yaakov.
Rabbi Yissachar Ber Eilenburg (1550-1623) was a Polish-Italian Rabbi in the late 16th Century, early 17th Century. He served as Rabbi in Gorizia, Privial in Italy and in Prague at the end of his life. He was appointed to serve as Rabbi of Tzfat, but passed away on his way to the Holy Land. He was referred to by the name of his book, ‘Be’er Sheva’. Rabbi Eilenburg was a disciple of the Sm”a and the Ba’al Levushim in the revealed aspects of Torah, and a disciple of Rabbi Yisrael Serug in Kabbalah.
At the beginning of the book, Rabbi Yissachar’s son presents ‘Letters from Tzfat’. These are the letters Tzfat’s sages dispatched to Rabbi Yissachar, requesting him to come and serve as their Rabbi.
Among Rabbi Yissachar’s famed Halachic rulings is his responsum (Ch. 18) prohibiting the use of wigs as a Halachically permissible head covering. He also opposed pouring from the Havdalah wine as a good omen, and would have abolished this custom that he considered wasteful, had he been able to.
Rabbi Yissachar’s composition, ‘Be’er Sheva’ is a type of ‘Tosafot’ on tractates, and on some tractates of the Talmud Bavli that have no Tosafot commentary on them.
