R. Yissachar Beirish Prager/Mogen Giborim. First edition Livorno 1781.
Novella on Tractates Bava Metzia and Horeyos by R. Eliezer Di-Abila. With signature of R. Yissachar Beirish Prager.
R. Eliezer Di-Abila (1711-1761), was a nephew of the Ohr HaChaim Ha’Kodosh. He served as Rav in Sa’ali and was renowned as one of the greatest Talmidei Chachomim of his time. See Shem HaGedolim (Mogen Giborim & R. Chaim Ben Attar). With numerous important approbations including one from the CHIDA.
R. Yissachar Beirish Prager (1810-1875), served as Rov in Vishnitza. Known as great Talmid Chochom, in 1864 the Divrei Chaim recommended him to serve as Rov in Rimanov. R. Prager declined the suggestion, however three days later his home and possessions were destroyed by fire, following which he accepted the Rabbonus in Rimanov. Author of “Mutzal M’Aish” (Lemberg 1865), which was aptly named because of the above occurrence.
