Tur Orach Chaim, with Beit Yosef. Simanim 135-620. [Venice, 1550. Marco Antonio Justinian printing press. First edition of the Beit Yosef – the first printed book of the teachings of Rabbi Yosef Karo].
Hundreds of early handwritten marginalia and corrections from the time of printing, by three or four writers. The glosses are divided into three types:
1. Many glosses of corrections and additions written in very early Oriental handwriting [the content of glosses attests to the vast Torah knowledge of their writer. Many of the corrections were written after scholarly study and deep comprehension of the details of the treatises]. These glosses begin with the laws of Shabbat [beginning from Leaf 148/1], until the end of the laws of Passover. Some of the corrections and additions were later corrected in the books of the commentaries and in the new editions of Shirat Devorah and some have not been corrected until today.
2. Dozens of glosses [in Oriental Rashi script characteristic to the handwriting of Oriental sages of the 16th/17th century], with the title Bedek HaBayit/ B.H./ Bedek, which are additions found in the book Bedek HaBayit authored by Rabbi Yosef Karo as a completion to his book Beit Yosef which was first printed in 1605. These glosses have variations from the printed book and apparently they were written before the printing of Bedek HaBayit. [Some of the glosses of Bedek HaBayit have slight variations from the printed versions. Several glosses in this handwritten Bedek HaBayit have never been printed, see for example the gloss at the beginning of Siman 226 Leaf 141/1, and other glosses by that same copier: Siman 398 Leaf 265/2, Siman 481 Leaf 410/1 and at the end of Siman 587/2].
3. Several glosses [in Oriental handwriting, from a later time, c. 17th/18th century?] of scholarly corrections and additions, see for example Leaf 279/2. Moreover, there are scholarly glosses and corrections written in pencil in ancient Oriental handwriting by another Torah scholar.
Incomplete copy, only leaves 86-399 (originally: 24, 459, [1] leaves). 29 cm. Fair condition, wear and stains, worm damages. Large tears with lack to several leaves.
Some glosses are cutoff, and some glosses written on inner margins were hidden at the times the book had been rebound throughout the years. Without binding.
