summary
A student of R. Isaac of Dampierre, Baruch ben Isaac of Worms (late 12th-early 13th century) was a member of the French Tosafist School. Relatively few German authorities are cited by him, while citations of the master Tosafists R. Samuel ben Meir (RaShBa”M) and R. Jacob of Ramrupt (Rabbeinu Tam) abound in his work.
A Rabbinic Code, with particular focus upon the laws pertaining to Eretz Israel, the Sepher HaTerumah have been included in much subsequent Halachic literature. Among those who invoke its authority are: Rabbis Isaac b. Moses (Or Zaru’a), Moses of Coucy (SeMa”G), Zedekiah Anav (Shibbolei HaLeket), and Aaron of Lunel (Orchoth Chaim). See EJ, Vol. IV, col. 278.
ff. (139 of 140), lacking final blank. Sig. 15:3-6 misbound. Upper portion of title-page removed unaffecting text, marginal tape-repair on final leaf, few stains. Later calf gilt , rubbed. 4to
