- The Kenesset HaGedolah writes that wherever the Maggid Mishneh says he couldn't find a proof for the Rambam, he doesn't agree. [1] Some even say if he doesn't provide a proof, even without articulating that lack of finding, it's an indication of disagreement.[2]
- A contemporary of the Rivash[3], the Maggid Mishneh's allegiance to the Rashba[4] is indicative through his throrough familiarity with the Rashba's opinions. Therefore, when in doubt as to how to understand the Rashba's opinion, the Maggid Mishneh's understanding is a valuable and acceptable window to determining what the Rashba means.[5] Some say the opposite is therefore a valuable tool of understanding the Maggid Mishneh, as well.[6]
- His tremendous dedication to elucidating the Rambam gives the Maggid Mishneh credence in deciding what the true explanation is when the Rambam's position is debatable, according to the Radbaz.[7]
- The Rivash posits that when the Maggid Mishneh refers to the Rambam as "HaMechaber" and not "Rabbenu," it indicates lack of satisfaction with the Rambam's position on his part,[8] but the Chidah argues that the verbiage is arbitrary.[9]
- The first three Perakim of Maggid Mishneh on Hilchot Gerushin (until Halacha 9) were not extant even in the times of the Maggid Mishneh himself; what we have printed was probably written by a student, not the Maggid Mishneh himself.[10]
- Maggid Mishneh doesn't usually refer to Perush HaMishnayot.[11]
- See Toldot Chachmei Yisrael (Shulman, vol. 3 page 137) for a humorous story about him and the Ritva.
