Toldot Yitzchak. Riva de Trento, 1558. Beautiful Copy.
The first or second book printed in Riva de Trento, by the uncle and teacher of Maran the Beit Yosef.
The book, Toldot Yitzchak is comprised of homilies and elucidations on Chamishah Chumshei Torah by Rabbi Yitzchak Caro, uncle and teacher of Maran the Beit Yosef.
The title page has handwritten ownership listings: “This is mine that I received as an inheritance of my master my father z”l ne’um Ephraim son of Eliezer z”l ish…”
The author, Rabbi Yitzchak Caro (1458-1535) was one of Spain’s leading sages during the Expulsion era. He served as Rosh Yeshiva in Portugal (the author relates about the Expulsion and wanderings in his foreword). Following his expulsion from Portugal, Rabbi Yitzchak settled in Turkey. In his home there, Rabbi Yitzchak raised his nephew, Rabbi Yosef Caro, author of the Shulchan Aruch. Rabbi Yosef absorbed much of the Torah teachings of his uncle as well as his service of G-d. He mentions his uncle in his commentary Beit Yosef (Orach Chaim Ch. 31, 382, 391) entitling him, Mori Dodi.
