Hundreds of leaves of handwritten notes on the Shoneh Halachot books Vol. 2-3 by Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky. With hundreds of handwritten notes by Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky, containing responses and corrections to some of the glosses, including corrections of the original text. Shoneh Halachot, authored by Rabbi Chaim with Rabbi Elazar Tzadok Turchin, as a brief summary of the laws in the Mishna Brura with the addition of halachic rulings of the Chazon Ish. Before printing the book, Rabbi Chaim gave the book to a number of prominent Torah scholars for proofreading. Rabbi Chaim's brother-in-law Rabbi R.S. Barzem, Rabbi A. Ganichovsky, Rabbi S.B. Valdenberg, Rabbi A.L. Shteinman, Rabbi D. Landau, etc. were among those sages as well as Rabbi Zvi Greenhaus, son-in-law of Rabbi Elazar Tzadok Turchin and the author of the notes. In his introduction to Vol. 3 of Shoneh Halachot, Rabbi Chaim writes: "Rabbi Zvi Greenhaus must be favorably mentioned for perusing this whole volume (with the exception of the laws of Yom Tov and Chol HaMo'edition) and he wrote many correct notes…". these works contain hundreds of leaves with handwritten notes by Rabbi Zvi Hirsh Greenhaus, according to the order of the Simanim (Sections) and the Se'ifim (Paragraphs) of Shoneh Halachot containing comments and questions on the content of the book. On the verso of the leaves, Rabbi Chaim comments on some of the notes and sometimes accepts Rabbi Greenhaus' notes and even writes that he revised the text of Shoneh Halachot accordingly. Rabbi Zvi also adds to the words of Rabbi Chaim things he later told him orally. these writings contain a treasure of halachic study, Rabbi Zvi comments on the precise wording of the Mishna Brura and the Chazon Ish and other poskim while Rabbi Chaim presents the exact Halacha and briefly explains the source of things he wrote in the book. these numerous glosses clearly portray the effort Rabbi Chaim exerted for each small point in his book Shoneh Halachot. Even small changes suggested by Rabbi Zvi as to different possible ways of expression merit a brief justification by Rabbi Chaim's of his choice of words. Rabbi Zvi Greenhaus, was head of the Kollel affiliated with the Knesset Chizkiyahu Yeshiva in Rekhasim for many years. His mussar lectures are very popular and he is a leading rabbi and mussar figure in Bnei Brak. More than 500 written pages. 19.5 cm. Good condition. Light stains and wear. Minor tears to some margins, without damage to text.
