Babylonian Talmud, Tractate Eruvin - Slavita, 1836 - Last Tractate Printed in Slavita - Approbations and Letters Relating to the Slavita-Vilna Polemic - Blessings of "Sons, Life and Sustenance" for the Buyers, from Chassidic Leaders
Babylonian Talmud, Tractate Eruvin, with the commentary of the Rosh, the Rambam's commentary on Mishnayot and the Maharsha. Slavita, [R. Moshe Shapira Rabbi of Slavita, and son] R. Shmuel Avraham Shapira, 1836.
This Talmud volume was printed in autumn 1836, at the height of the polemic between the printers of Slavita and those of Vilna, and it is the last volume of this edition to be printed. It is also one of the last volumes printed in the Slavita printing press before its tragic closure. This volume is part of the fourth edition of the Slavita Talmud, of which only the printing of Tractates Berachot, Shabbat and Eruvin were completed (in the middle of the printing of Tractate Pesachim, the press was shut down by the Russian authorities, following the infamous libel).
23 letters and approbations are featured at the beginning of the volume, from leading rabbis of the generation who supported the Slavita printers. These letters and approbations contain much exclusive and valuable information on the development of the famous polemic, in which some two hundred rabbis of that generation were involved.
In response to the rumors propagated by the Vilna printers that rabbis excommunicated anyone who buys the Slavita Talmud, the approbations in the present volume contain many blessings for those who purchase this edition, including blessings for "sons, life and sustenance".
