Babylonian Talmud, with Piskei Tosafot, Rosh, the Rambam's commentary on Mishnayot, Maharsha, Maharam Schiff and Meir Nativ. Zhitomir: Grandsons of the Rabbi of Slavita, 1858-1864. Partial set – ten volumes.
This edition includes Meir Nativ, a composition by R. Shabtai HaKohen (a relative of the Shach), omitted from later editions of the Talmud printed in Vilna, Warsaw and Lviv. The Chazon Ish favored and praised the Zhitomir edition of the Talmud, mainly for its inclusion of the Meir Nativ and also because of the publishers' reverence for the holiness of the Talmud.
Includes volumes: Chullin; Bava Kama; Bava Batra; Menachot; Kiddushin; Bava Metzia; Sanhedrin; Pesachim and Chagigah; Rosh Hashana, Yoma and Sukka; Makkot, Horayot, Eduyot, Avot D'Rabbi Natan and minor tractates.
