16th Century. Sefer Chazon by Rav Yaakov Landau, author of Ha'Agur. Venice, 1546

Thin, four-paged kuntress. Sefer Chazon, with close to 50 fascinating halachic riddles and their answers.

Riddles and sharp questions were often asked and puzzled over by Gedolei Yisrael of all times and background, becuase they sharpen the mind and they encourage mastery of halachos.

This is one of the most famed book of riddles, written by a prominent early achron, Rav Yaakov Landau, author of Ha'Agur.

Ha'Agur was printed at the same time (Venice 1546-1547). Some volumes contain both works together, while some copies of the works were bound separately.
