Pinkas (Ledger) of Shluchei Eretz Yisrael to Pesaro

Fifty letters and entries signed by the various charitable emissaries from Eretz Israel to the community of Pesaro. Noting terms and conditions agreed upon and amounts of monies received. With profuse blessings in the name of the communities of Jerusalem, Hebron, Tiberias and Safed. The emissaries sent as official representatives of the communities in Eretz Israel were for the most part eminent scholars. Many of them published significant Rabbinical works and gave approbations to the works of others they encountered during their travels. Many became involved in indigenous communal matters and sought to resolve internal conflicts. This Pinkas was not seen by Yaari for his definative Shluchei Eretz Yisrael, and contains much new information. A list of the more prominent signatories with brief bio-bibliographic sketches is available upon request
