Sefer HaMachria. Laws and novellae on tractate Ta'anit, by Rabbi Yeshayah di Trani, author of the Tosefot Rid. Livorno, 1779.
First edition of the important work of one of the greatest Rishonim. Important approbations, including a long approbation from Rabbi Chaim Yosef David Azulai - the Chida.
Ownership signature on the title page, Rabbi Eliezer son of Rabbi Yosef Binyamin Bergman. Rabbi Eliezer Bergman [1798-1852] was the disciple of the great German rabbis of his time, and was the son-in-law of Rabbi Mendel Rosenbaum - the finance minister of Leopold, king of Bavaria. In addition to being a Torah scholar who corresponded with the prominent scholars of the generation, he was an important activist who immigrated to Jerusalem and established Kollel Hod. He died on a mission in Germany and his body was brought to Jerusalem. He is the patriarch of the Bergman family of Jerusalem. Some of his teachings were printed in the book B'Har Yirah [Jerusalem, 1975] and in a booklet within the book Sha'arei Orah, by his grandson Rabbi Meir Zvi Bergman, Rabbi Shach's son-in-law [Bnei Brak, 1969].
