Taharas HaKodesh First Edition. Zolkiew 1804. - Tosefta Seder Taharos, with the commentary of the Gaon printed just a few years after his passing. Published by R. Meir of Vilna, who received the Tosefta with the glosses of the Gaon directly from the Gaon.

Although this sefer received various enthusiastic approbations from R. Mordechai Banet and the Yeshuos Yaakov, this printing was criticized by the sons of the Gaon (see introduction to Sefer Yonah, Vilna 1810). Vinograd Sifrei HaGra 281.Vinograd Vilna 610.
