Description
   Only edition of these ninety-five responsa by R. Jehiel Michael ben Zerah Borenstein (1818-92), av bet din Trostiany. There is an introduction on the verso of the title page by R. Borenstein and approbations from R. Hayyim Berlin and R. Hayyim Joseph Sonnenfeld. This is followed by a page with four small vignettes of scenes in Erez Israel and below it a large representation of the menorah with copies of the luhot on each side and below them representations of the altar, ascent to the altar, pure oil, and the flagon for the oil. Next is a listing of the responsa, which are on both Orah Hayyim and on Yoreh De’ah. The text, in two columns in rabbinic type, deals not only with the expected halkakhic issues but also addresses issues raised by other preeminent rabbis, such as R. Akiva Eger.
