An extensive commentary to Shulchan Aruch on Hilchoth Pesach. The author cites his mentor numerous times (Mori VeRabi) as well as other seemingly unpublished commentaries (R. Shmuel Sha’ar Aryeh). R. Yitzchak Vali who served as Rabbi of Modena, unfortunately died young in the year 1680. Shem Hagedolim (no. 10743) cites R. Moshe Zacuto who greatly extolled R. Vali’s teachings.
