Including buyer's premium
The book Zevach Shmuel on laws of ritual slaughter, by Rabbi Shmuel MiLisa, a famous "shochet, bodek umenaker" (ritual slaughterer, examiner, and "extractor of sinews"). Contains "D'rishat Haze'ev" glosses, from the grandson of the author, Rabbi Shmuel Ze'ev who was a shochet, bodek and head of the minakrim in Lisa. Dihrenfurt, 1822.
Many handwritten glosses (mostly short), signatures and ownership inscriptions of Rabbi Efraim ben Rabbi Yosef of Lisa, who was a shochet ubodek in Libben [he probably wrote the glosses], as well as signatures of additional owners.
At the end of the volume, there are about 18 pages of handwriting, containing novellae of the Rabbi of the town – Rabbi Ya'akov MiLisa – on the topic. These rulings were published, partially and differently, based on a different copying, in "Moria" from 2000 (see enclosed photocopy). What we have before us is the full manuscript as was written in the rabbi's lifetime in 1819.
RAbbeinu Ya'akov Luberbaum of Lisa (1770-1832), author of Netivot Hamishpat, Chavat Da'at, Mekor Chaim, and more. One of the leaders of his generation – the generation of the Ketzot Hachoshen and Rabbi Akiva Eiger.
