A 16-leaf booklet containing sections 186–190 concerning the laws of Niddah, from Shulchan Aruch Yoreh De’ah, by Rabbi Dovid Shlomo Eibeschutz, author of Arvei Nachal. This is the sefer with which he studied and recorded his glosses!
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div>
<b>On the present leaves appear approximately 40 handwritten glosses in the holy handwriting of the author — the very glosses that make up the holy and renowned sefer Levushei Srad! <br /><br /></b>
</div>
<div>
<b>The glosses were printed from the very leaves before us in the sefer Levushei Srad, Tzfas edition 1863 (a supplement to the Levushei Srad printed in Ahalov 1812 — which does not address the present sections). They are printed in all modern editions of Shulchan Aruch Yoreh De’ah studied in all batei midrash. </b>
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div>
Levushei Srad is the foundation for halachic works on Yoreh De’ah, relied upon by all of Klal Yisrael.
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div>
The glosses comment on the text of the Shulchan Aruch, the Taz, and the Shach. Some are brief, consisting of textual emendations and references to sefarim of Achronim, while others are longer.
<b>One exceptionally long gloss spans the full margin of the leaf! </b>
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div>
The glosses were written across different periods, as evidenced by the variation in ink color.
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div>
The Rabbanim of Tzfas, led by Rabbi Shmuel Heller, wrote regarding these glosses: "And here [in Tzfas] were the four volumes of Shulchan Aruch through which the aforementioned author learned, and on their margins he inscribed in his holy handwriting insightful notes to clarify the plain meaning and halacha, with great sharpness."
<br />
<b><br /></b>
</div>
<div>
<b>Rabbi Dovid Shlomo Eibeschutz (1755-1814)</b> served as Av Beis Din in Soroca and settled in Tzfas in his latter years. He was a genius in both the Hidden and Revealed Torah.
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div>
Chassidic leaders held him in high esteem, and the Apter Rav testified that Eliyahu Hanavi appeared to him. In his endorsement to Levushei Srad, his relative the Kedushas Levi describes Rabbi David Shlomo as “sharp and proficient in all areas of Torah, like one of the early sages, and all of his actions are for the sake of Heaven. He plunged into mighty waters to delve into the depths of Halacha."
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div>
Rabbi Chaim of Czernowitz, author of Be’er Mayim Chaim, wrote about him: “From the east shone forth the light of Torah — the honorable Rav, the great eagle, the blazing lamp, the glory of Yisrael… I saw that the words of the sefer are words of radiant light, sparkling in every direction.”
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div>
His sefarim were embraced with awe and reverence in every corner of the Jewish world, for both halachic rulings and practical guidance — whether in law, Torah commentary, or drush. All are grounded in Kabbalah and the teachings of the Baal Shem Tov and his disciples, from whom he absorbed Torah and Yiras Shamayim.
