Chok Yosef, Amsterdam, 1730 – Glosses by Rabbi Naftali Hirsch Rabbi of Harburg
Sefer Chok Yosef, on Shulchan Aruch, laws of Pesach [with text], Rabbi Yosef son of Rabbi David of Breslau. Amsterdam, [1730]. First edition. Ownership signature “Naftali Hirsch son of Rabbi Gumprich of Harburg”. Lengthy erudite glosses; in some, writer refers to sayings which he wrote in his books “Chok Ya’akov” and “Chemed Moshe”. In one gloss he presents a law regarding the selling of Chametz [leavened food] on behalf of the “Ga’on Rabbi Moshe Hechim rabbi of congregation of Ansbach” as well as letter written in Nisan 1808 “to my father, rabbi and mentor”.
Apparently, Rabbi Naftali Hirsch served in rabbinate of Harburg between c. 1800-1810. It seems that he is the writer of the glosses.
