Meggilat Sefer. First Edition. Copy that Belonged to the Gaon Rabbi Yehudah Yerucham Fischel Perla. Important Handwritten Glosses
"Know that without forty straight years of toil and diligence, it would not have been within human capacity to produce such a work." (Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld, about the Gri"p)
Meggilat Sefer, extensive elucidation on the 613 mitzvot by Rabbi Binyamin Kazish. First edition. Constantine, 1750. Copy that belonged to the gaon Rabbi Yehudah Yerucham Fischel Perla, author of Hagahot HaGri"p and author of the monumental work on Rabbi Sa'adyah Gaon's enumeration of the 613 mitzvot. This work earned him eternal renown. Dozens of the Gri"p's owner's stamps appear along the leaves of the volume as well as many scholarly glosses in his penmanship.
The Gri"p Perla was known for his magnum opus on the Rasa"g's Sefer HaMitzvot , which occupied him for close to forty years, fourteen of which, legend has it, he did not leave his home. His wife would serve his meals through a narrow window, and he would hear kaddish and kedushah from the window of his home. Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld observed about this composition "Know that without forty straight years of toil and diligence, it would not have been within human capacity to produce such a work."
Meggilat Sefer deals with exactly the same topic as the Gri"p Perla's monumental work. There is no doubt that this copy was used extensively for the forty years he wrote his work on the Rasa"g count of mitzvot. And indeed, the sheets of the sefer contain many scholarly glosses, some lengthy, handwritten by Rabbi Yerucham Fischel Perla.
After Rabbi Perla's passing, the renowned gaon Rabbi Mendel Kasher purchased his library from his family for a large fortune. The gaon Rabbi Mendel Kasher also stamped his owner's stamp on this volume, such that this copy of Meggilat Sefer bears the owners' stamps of two of the leading geonim of Poland.
Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of the wondrous gaon Rabbi Yehudah Yerucham Perla of Warsaw.
