Lot 125:
Third edition, this edition was extremely corrected by Maran Beit Yosef from the manuscript, with new answers printed here for the first time. As was written in the introduction, the publishers say “now, after it was days and years since the full questions and answers were printed, there were still many mistakes to be corrected, but thanks to the Rav Mohar Yosef Karo and Gaon Rav Shlomo Luria they are written in the great book of Beit Yosef. On the title page is the signature of the Gaon Rabbi Refael Uchana, one of the sages of Tiberias. Born in Morocco, immigrated to Israel, he then left for Bukhara as a representative. This copy is censored, amongst the answers there are erasures of words “goy,” “nochri,” “akum,” On the last page is the handwritten signature of the censor. On page 14 there is a note in Ashkenazi handwriting. Illustrated, nice cover page with figures of Moshe and Aaron. Excellent condition, the title page is restored. Parchment binding, restored.
