Sefer Halakhot Ktanot [bound together with] Sefer Korban Hagiga.

1 / 4

Sefer Halakhot Ktanot [bound together with] Sefer Korban Hagiga.

Responsa work by Hagiz, bound together with sermons by Galante, both published in Venice the same year.

Ya'akov ben Smuel Hagiz (aka Jacob Hagiz, 1620-1674) was a Sephardi Jewish Talmudist born at Fes, Morocco. In about 1646, Hagiz went to Italy for the purpose of publishing his books, and remained there until after 1656, supporting himself by teaching. About 1657 he left Livorno for Jerusalem, where the Vega brothers of Livorno had founded a Beit Midrash for him and where he became a member of the rabbinical college. He had a large number of eager young students as his followers, among whom were Moses ibn Habib, who became his son-in-law, and Joseph Almosnino, later the Rabbi of Belgrade. Hagiz was active in the opposition to Sabbatai Zevi and banned his teachings.

Moshe ben Yonatan Galante (1621-1689), grandson of the 16th-century rabbi Moshe Galante, was a 17th-century head rabbi of Jerusalem and Hagiz's father-in-law. Galante served as the first Rishon Le'Zion and was called Magen (meaning 'defender' or 'shield') with reference to the initials of his name. Rabbi Hezekiah da Silva of Livorno was among his disciples. Just as Hagiz, Galante was among the fierce opponents to Sabbatai Zevi and his teachings. Following Hagiz's death Galante took his place as the head of Beit Ya'akov Yeshivah in Jerusalem, which was the biggest and most prominent Jewish education establishment of Jerusalem at the time.

4to, later morroco-backed boards, rubbed, with gilt floral ornaments and Hebrew title to spine; red-stained edges, staining and worming to leaves, a few small tears affecting text, front endpaper missing, first title page partially detached with old repairs.
