Detail Description

Only edition of this halakhic index on Shulhan Arukh Orah Hayyim and Yoreh De’ah with novellae on tractates by R. Shalom Zevi ben Abraham Joshua Harif. The title page describes Mafteah ha-Halakhot as being a three part work, the first part on Orah Hayyim and Yoreh De’ah besides some halakhot on parts of Hoshen Mishpat. The second part is on Even ha-Ezer, the third part to be on halakhot not applicable at the present time. At this time the first part only is being published but it is hoped that in a short time it will be possible to bring out the other parts. There is no evidence, however, that the other parts were ever printed. The title page continues that this work is of great need to whomever has any knowledge of Talmud or who is responsible for communal instruction, for with it anyone can promptly locate the source of a halakhah and can also become a wondrous expert in a short time. R. Harif then gives several generations of his genealogy, noting that he is the fourth generation form the Taz. Mafteah ha-Halakhot has an approbation from R. Abraham Schlossberg followed by R. Harif’s introduction.

The text, in a single column in rabbinic type, begins with the recital of Shema, netilat yadim, trhe laws of meals, how to recitre benedictions on fruit, followed by Shabbat and and the av melakhot. It includes such varied topics as milah, lending, and discusses manyu subjects by theirpalce int he Talmud, that is, by tractate. Within each subject references are given to their location i n the Talmud.
