summary

A compilation of halachic material, Shibolei HaLeket primarily focuses upon material that would later comprise the bulk of Orach Chaim. The author cites earlier works, and then after a brief debate, states his particular position. This style of combining earlier works with its’ own deliberations, led Shibolei HaLeket as being cited by the Beth Yosef in practically every portion of Orach Chaim.The Anav family (Heb. Min-Ha’Anavim) had a long-standing tradition as being one of four aristocratic families Emperor Titus brought from Jerusalem to Rome following the destruction of the Second Temple in the year 70 C.E. Zedekiah ben Abraham (1225-97) was one of many distinguished Talmudists to emerge from this illustrious Roman family.
