Emek Beracha, expounding upon matters relating to cherem (bans), its force, authority, conditions of use, etc. by Rabbi David Ish-Shalom (Fried-man) Av Beit Din of Karlin. With Kuntress Karnei Re'em and a foreword containing comments and glosses by Rabbi Yechiel Michel Pines. Jerusalem, 1881-1882. Halachic clarifications of the laws of cherem. Printed in response to a cherem imposed by Jerusalem Torah scholars upon his brother-in-law, Rabbi Yechiel Michel Pines, who was a Torah scholar affiliated with the Haskalah movement. Many handwritten glosses on the foreword of Rabbi Michel Pines by his brother-in-law, the author, Rabbi David of Karlin, most in square script [written by his scribe Rabbi Shmuel Noach Gotlieb], some in the handwriting of the author Rabbi David of Karlin. After a number of copies of the book arrived in Russia from Jerusalem, the author, Rabbi David of Karlin saw the foreword by his brother-in-law, the publisher R' Michel Pines, regarding which he had severe doubts. Rabbi David proofread the book time after time and had his scribe Rabbi Gotlieb copy the comments of all the copies in his possession to assure that he does not produce a defective version. Some of the comments were printed by Rabbi Bezalel Devlitzky in the anthology Beit Aharon V'Yisrael, (Issue 122, Year 21, p. 180). Another part was published in the article by Rabbi Eitan Henkin in the Yeshurun compilation (Vol. 24, pp. 144-151). The handwritten glosses vary from copy to copy. Apparently, after they were copied by Rabbi Shmuel Noach Gotlieb to another copy, Rabbi David reviewed the glosses and added and edited the comments. In the next copy, the scribe copied the glosses with the additions and corrections to a third copy, after which Rabbi David revised the new copy. According to our research, this is a later copy with revisions and additional glosses which do not appear in the two above publications. Two of the additional glosses are in the handwriting of Rabbi David of Karlin. [1], 12, 15, 14 leaves. 23 cm. Dry paper. Good condition. Small tears. Old binding. Bookplate from 1947 [with a portrait of Rabbi David Friedman of Karlin studying Torah, according to the renowned portrait drawn by Lilien. For further information about this portrait called Me'or HaGolah, see the blog Notrikon, Oct. 2011, the article "Lilien Draws Rabbis"]. S. HaLevi, no. 377.
