ثيقة شرعيّة: JRL B 2807

الوصف

Legal declaration, perhaps 16th- or 17th-century. Signed by Nissim b. al-ʿAnkari stating that in the assembly of the heads of the community, the slaughterer Yeruḥam swore not to encroach on the domain of the slaughterer Shabbetay, and in turn Shabbetay would give 3 parts of every 10 (of what?). If either of the slaughterers asks the other to substitute for him, the substitute is not to encroach or touch the share of the other. The name Nissim b. al-ʿAnkari appears in other geniza fragments, perhaps related to the same communal rabbi: T-S NS 320.114 (PGPID 25383); Yevr. II A 293.
