First edition. Hard covers. Quarto, 289 pages. In 1960 Appel published a volume which included only Part 1 of the manuscript (chapters 1 – 25). The present volume (1994) is the first to include the complete extant manuscript with all 44 chapters. SEFER HA-NEYAR Anonymous compendium of laws; compiled during the first third of the fourteenth century, after 1319, probably by a Provençal. It consists mainly of extracts from the works of French scholars, although the "Halakot Gedolot" and Maimonides' "Mishneh Torah" were consulted. A work of Baruch b. Ḥayyim b. Menahem of (probably Niort in the department of Deux-Sèvres, France), a pupil of Isaac of Corbeil, served as the basis for the "Neyar." The collection includes many legal decisions and extracts from the tosefta which are otherwise well known, especially those of Simon of Sens. Historical narratives of real interest are also to be found in this work. The "Neyar" was almost wholly unknown to scholars of the Middle Ages as well as to those of more recent times. Joseph b. Solomon Colon and Azulai probably are the only ones who knew the book; De Rossi owned a manuscript of the "Neyar" (De Rossi MSS., No. 400); another is in the library of the Jews' College in London.

Media Mail, available only for domestic shipping, is trucked to its destination, and shipped by boat to Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico, On the average it takes 3 to 10 days to arrive, depending on the distance and the vagaries of the US Postal Service. Shipments to Alaska, Hawaii, APO and other off-shore addresses take longer to arrive. During the pre-Christmas season, Media Mail is subject to delays.

For most books, we charge between two and nine dollars for this service, including delivery confirmation and insurance. For heavy sets or high-value books, the charge may be higher. INTERNATIONAL For international shipping, we urge bidders to request quotes of shipping costs before bidding. We will also specify international shipping options and prices after the conclusion of the auction.
