Detail Description
R. Joseph b. David Pardo (d. 1677) was the reader of the Spanish and Portuguese congregation in London; he died in Amsterdam. He was the author of Shulhan Tahor, on Orah Hayyim and Yoreh De'ah, which is written with the maximum of brevity. It was published a number of times, first by his son R. David Pardo in 1686 in London; in 1689 it was published with a Spanish translation. Apparently it lost its popularity with scholars in the course of time because of its excessive brevity.
