(issachar Berish of Hanover)

Solomon Proops

Amsterdam

1731

Inscription on the title-page states the book belonged to “Adoni Mori “ the Rabbi of Hanover. Contains extensive marginal notes in the hand of R. Yissachar Berish of Hanover. Plus some notes in another later Ashkenazic hand

R. Yissacher Berish (d. 1803), was the son of R. Aryeh Leib of Hanover, the son of the Pnei Yehoshua and was the son-in-law of R. Itzikel of Hamburg. These notes are indicative of his great erudition, citing many Rishonim and Acharonim (e.g. Mishmereth HaBayith, Minchath Yaakov, Minchat hCohen, etc.) Some of his innovative novellae which were published at the end of his grandfather’s magnum opus the Pnei Yehoshua became famous in the scholarly, Torah world and were commented upon by the Noda BeYehudah and others
