Rabbeinu David Halevi, author of Tureu Zahav, managed to publish in his lifetime his work on Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim and Yoreh Deah only. The work was published with the Shulchan Aruch itself. His work on Choshen Mishpat was not published in his lifetime and was later edited by Rabbi Zvi Hirsch Ashkenazi author of the Chacham Zvi and published as a book in itself. To this edition he added innovations by the author of Kikayon Deyonah and by Rabbi Shmuel Kodinover, He also added his own glosses, beginning with "אמר המגיה".
