The last two leaves, with the errata are missing. Ownership signature and stamp of “The Chavurat mishnayot of Kaminka” and the signature of the chassidic kabbalist Rabbi Mordechai Moshe Karfman. A few worming holes. Slight stains and blemishes, restorations in the margins of several leaves. Good overall condition. New binding. The author Rabbi Moshe son of Yaakov – one of the foremost sages of his generation. Went to study Torah in Constantinople because there was no center of Torah in Lithuania at the time. He began to write Shoshan Sodot in 1795. In the same year he was expelled from Lithuania. He was captured and brought to Karim-Sulkat, where he was redeemed by the rabbinic Jews and the Karaites. The Jews of Karim started to recite his piyyutim as part of their prayers, and for many years talked about him as one of their foremost rabbis. They referred to him as Moshe Ashkenazi or Moshe from Russia. Mentioned in Shulchan Aruch Ha’Ari: ‘Written in the book Shoshan Sodot, and he is one of the disciples of the Ramban.”
