1855 Johannisburg PARDES HABINAH by R. Moses ben Aaron Aaronsohn
LANGUAGE: HEBREW
VG CONDITION, HARDCOVER, ONLY EDITION
Introspective work with Responsa in two parts by R. Moses ben Aaron Aaronsohn. The title page has a falsified place of printing and date, stating that it was printed in Amsterdam in 1842. This is not correct, the actual place of printing being Johannisburg (Koenigsberg) and the date 1855. The title page has the Hebrew date הוד כרם שלי (615 = 1855). The text describes the book in terms of a vineyard, stating that the first branch has thirteen shoots, to understand deep and reflective thoughts, “to takes from the tree of life and eat” (Genesis 3:22) from the fruit with guidance and knowledge. The second part has twelve plantings with responsa on various topics. He entitles it Matai Moshe (the planting of Moses). The title page informs that R. Aaronsohn was also the author of Pardes ha-Hokhmah, and that he was born in Salant. He served as Rav in the communities of Zelve and Raski. There are approbations from R. Dov Berush Ashkenazi, R. Israel ben Zev Wolf Lipkin, R. Joshua Isaac Shapira, R. Joshua Friedensohn, R. Jehiel Heller, R. Yeroham Altschuler, R. Joshua Judah Leib ben Benjamin Diskin, R. Moses ben Nahum Ginsburg, and R, Joseph ben Isaac Izik Haber. Next is a two page four column list of those whose contributions made publication possible, and then the text in two columns in rabbinic type
