Passover Haggadah, Ashkenazic rite, with commentaries and novellae by the Abarbanel and R. Shimshon of Ostropol. [Kopys, 1826].
The laws and the "sufficient simple commentary" were printed mainly according to the "Tefillat Nehora HaShalem" siddur (Vilna, 1825) - "Passover Haggadah with all the laws and customs… with sufficient simple commentary gathered and anthologized from all the Haggadah commentators, as found in the Tefillat Nehora HaShalem siddur, as well as wondrous novellae from the holy kabbalist R. Shimshon of Ostropol… novellae from R. Yitzchak Abarbanel, from the author of Maaseh Hashem, and from Chevel Bnei Yehuda". Several paragraphs of laws and customs are copied from the Siddur HaRav of the Baal HaTanya, which was also printed in Kopys.
Many handwritten marginal notes (Ashkenazic Rashi script), including laws, customs, Kavanot and commentaries (the author notes that his customs are different from those of the Perushim - the disciples of the Vilna Gaon; apparently, he hailed from a different community).
[1], [19] leaves. 22 cm. Fair condition. Extensive damage to text, repaired. Stains and wear. New elaborate leather binding.
Yaari 477; Otzar HaHaggadot 667.
