“This opposes the gemara in Ketubot”! Sifrei Nachal Kedumim al HaTorah and Nachal Eshkol al HaHaftarot – important fundamental commentary by Rabbeinu Chaim Yosef David Azoulay, the Chid”a. Bound together with separate title pages. Brooklyn, 1953. The first title page and page 2b bear the familiar signature of leading Chacham of the Orient of recent generations, the Rishon LeTziyon Rabbi Ovadiah Yosef. There is also an interesting scholarly gloss on page 23a in Rabbinic-Oriental script, also apparently handwritten by Rabbi Ovadiah Yosef, who never showed favor to anyone in halachah – not even the Chid”a – writing with his broad expertise: “This opposes the gemara in Ketubot”! Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of the gaon Rabbi Ovadiah Yosef . [1], 140; 46 pp. 17 cm. Very fine condition. Usage marks. Worn original binding, dismantled and for the most part detached.
