Divrei Shlomo – Venice, 1596 – Only Edition
Divrei Shlomo, homilies on the Torah portions and festivals, Part I, by R. Shlomo HaLevi of Thessaloniki. Venice: Matteo Zanetti and Comino Presegno, [1596]. Only edition.
No second part was printed.
The author, R. Shlomo HaLevi (1532-1600), disciple of Mahari Ben Lev, served as rabbi in Thessaloniki. This book is a compilation of the sermons he delivered in his community on various occasions. As the author explains in his preface, he published the homilies Vayikra first, since the Sages state that one beginning to study Torah would start with the Book of Vayikra.
