Detail Description
First edition of these varied responsa by R. Abraham ben Zevi Hirsch Teomim. Hesed le-Avraham is in two parts each with its own foliation. The first larger part is on Orah Hayyim and Yoreh Deah, the second part are responsa on Eben ha-Ezer and Hoshen Mishpat. There is an introduction from R. Teomim on the verso of the title-page in which he explains that he has entitled the book Hesed le-Avraham because as is its name so the word hesed can be explained in two ways חן וחנינה (grace and kindness) and חרפה (disgrace) which he will be called based on what people find. Orah Hayyim is comprised of sixty-nine responsa, Yoreh Deah of one hundred fourteen, Eben ha-Ezer of fifty-one and Hoshen Mishpat of fifty-three responsa. The volume concludes with errata.
