An erudite and diligent scholar R. Rapoport published during his lifetime, Simlat Binyamin u-Vigdei Kehunnah (Dyhrenfurth, 1788) on the Shulhan Arukh Yoreh De'ah, but he left a number of works in manuscript, some of which were published after his death, among them Edut le-Yisrael on tractate Makkot with additions by his son (Pressburg, 1839). It constitutes the third part of his Masat Binyamin. It is related that R. Wolf did not complete a meal without simultaneously completing a tractate of the Talmud. His relative wealth allowed to to donate well in excess of the customary tithing. Above all his Yeshiva was attended by many students who sought his innovative methods of teaching.
