Although Turei Zahav on Orach Chaim is the author’s most celebrated work, he was one of very few to write a thorough commentary on all four sections of the Shulchan Aruch. This portion on Even Ha’Ezer was the last to be brought to the press. David HaLevi Segal (1586-1667), known as the Turei Zahav (also abbreviated to TaZ) after the title of this significant halachic commentary, came to be recognized as one of the great rabbinic authorities of his time.
