Description		    Ethical work addressing current issues and opposing modern innovations by R. Isaiah Asher Zelig Margaliyot. The author writes on the title page that he has arranged “seven pillars” (Proverbs 9:1) from “the cedars of Lebanon” (Isaiah 14:8, Psalms 104:16), mighty ones of the Torah. “They are indeed the fundamentals of the Torah” (Shabbat 32a) and halakha. It further states that it is arranged according to the order of the yeshivot, according to the gemara, and hazal and the heads of mesivtas. It addresses prohibitions, idle bachurim, gentile attire, long hair, and removing peyot and beards. The title page is dated, “so that they may cleanse the land את הארץ לפ"ג (5692 = 1932)” (Ezekiel 39:12). The verso of the title page has a dedication to R. Michael Kalin, who financed publication of the book, and his late parents, Shemaya ben Michael (d. 1914) and Yenta bas Zev Wolf (d. 1931). There are lengthy approbations from R. Hayyim Saul דוויך ha-Kohen, R. Samuel Engel, R. Joseph Razin, and R. Solomon Zalman Ehrenreich. A detailed listing of the contents follows, beginning with a responsa on the prohibition of woman voting and of joining the Va’ad ha-Leumi of the non-religious in Erez Israel from R. Alfendari. Amude Arazim is divided into seven amudim, discussing the subjects noted on the title page. The text is in a single column in square letters.
