Classics. Teshuvos Ha’RaShBA. Bologna 1539.
Second edition of the classic sefer of halachic responsa by R. Shlomo Ben Aderes. Includes the pages of indices lacking in many copies.
R. Shlomo Ben Aderes (RaShBA) (c.1235-c.1310) of Barcelona, was a disciple of the cousins Rabbeinu Yonah and R. Moshe Ben Nachman (RaMBaN). After the departure of the RaMBaN for Eretz Yisroel in 1267, the RaShBA became the undisputed leader and spokesman of Spanish Jewry. His influence was enormous and he was known as the “El Rab D’España” meaning the “The Rov of Spain”. He was a prolific author writing novella on many facets of the Torah, which remain one of the frequently studied early commentaries. He also received Halachic queries from many communities, and his Halachic responsa had a tremendous influence on the later Halachic commentators.
