Classic: First Edition Korban Nesanel
Commentaries, explanations, halachic novellae and glosses on the Piskei Harash of Seder Mo'ed and Nashim, from Rabbi Nesanel Weil, Av Beis Din of Karlsruhe.
Published in Karlsruhe, 1755, this beautiful first edition includes a unique title page as well as symbols not found in any other prints.
The top of the title page boasts an illustration of a bird spreading its wings and nests on either side, alluding to the treatise title. The halachic novellae in the sefer are noted by the author with a symbol of a hand; symbols which are unique to this edition.
The title page bears the signature of Rabbi Yaakov Schweich, Av Beis Din of Endingen, Switzerland, and later Av Beis Din of Nancy, France, with two small glosses in his handwriting.
