Emek Halacha, by Rebbe Yehoshua Horowitz of Dzikֿow owned by Safed Rabbis Rabbi Shmuel Heller and R. Yissachar Berish Salz

Emek Halacha, on Talmudic topics, by Rebbe Yehoshua Horowitz of Dzikֿow, grandson of Rabbi Naftali of Ropczyce. Lemberg, 1870. First edition.


Rabbi Shmuel Heller av”d Safed (1803-1884), was the noted rabbi of the Ashkenazic community in the city. He was known as a sacred person, chassid and expert in all aspects of Torah. He studied by the Chozeh of Lublin in his youth, and the Chozeh even put on his tefillin for the first time. When the “Bat Ayin” moved to Safed, Rabbi Shmuel had a close, affectionate relationship with him. He was a pillar of the Jewish community in Safed and worked vigorously to help it.



R. Yissachar Berish Salz (1893-1961), a leading Safed rabbi. An outstanding Torah scholar and kabbalist, he devoted his entire life to Torah study, and served as dean and posek in Safed. He came from one of the oldest families of the Safed community. His father was R. Chaim Avraham Salz (descendant of R. David HaLevi, the Taz) and his father-in-law was R. Yaakov Yitzchak Unger (descendant of Rebbe Mordechai David Unger of Dombrowa). He was a close disciple of the Ridvaz (R. Yaakov David Wilowsky, rabbi of Safed) and dean of the latter's yeshiva Bnei Yaakov – Ridvaz in Safed. He was also a close disciple and confidant of R. Sh.A. Alfandari, during the latter's tenure as rabbi of Safed, and served as scribe in his Beit Din. He exchanged halachic and friendly correspondence with R. Tzvi Pesach Frank and other rabbis in Eretz Israel.
