# The [[Rashba]] was a student of the [[Ramban]] and [[Rabbeinu Yonah]], and he was the primary opponent of the [[Ra'ah]].

The Aroch explains the topics from the Gemara, and the Katzar is just a list of the conclusions. The Rashba expressed dissatisfaction with those who only wanted to spread the Katzar and not the Aroch,<ref>Shu"t HaRashba Siman 273</ref> but, unfortunately, even when it was eventually printed, the printers, not just the copyists, did just that. Indeed, there are more manuscripts of the Katzar than the Aroch, indicating a greater reach by the Katzar than the Aroch. Therefore, Rishonim like the [[Tur]] never saw the Bayit HaAroch.<ref>Beit Yosef (Yoreh Deah 112), Shem HaGedolim (Sefarim, Kuf 93, Taf 39), Introduction to Mossad HaRav Kook edition.</ref> | ||
# The [[Ra'ah]] wrote a critique of Torat HaBayit known as Bedek HaBayit. | |||
# The Mishmeret HaBayit, which anonymously defends the Torat HaBayit from the Bedek HaBayit's refutations, was written by the Rashba to defend himself against the Ra'ah,<ref>Yad Malachi (Klalei HaRashba 4). The Chida (Shem HaGedolim, Gedolim, Shin 19) adds that many Gedolim missed this point while they were engrossed in their learning.</ref> but it wasn't in print at the times of the [[Beit Yosef]], [[Rama]], and [[Maharshal]] for them to see it.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19), Matnat Yado fn. 10. See Birkei Yosef (Orach Chaim 158:3) for example.</ref> | |||
=Avodat HaKodesh= | |||
# In Avodat HaKodesh, the Rashba's Sefer on Shabbat, Yom Tov, and Eruvin, he writes "יראה לי" when referring to Halachot from the [[Yerushalmi]], [[Tosefta]], and anything else not mentioned in [[Talmud Bavli]].<ref>Pri Chadash Orach Chaim 498:9, Yad Malachi (Klalei HaRashba 3)</ref> | |||
# Like the Torat HaBayit, the Avodat HaKodesh also has an "Aroch" and "Katzar," but the "Aroch" is no longer extant. Thus, our Avodat HaKodesh is only the "Katzar."<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19; Sefarim, Kuf 86)</ref> However, some modern editions include a collection of quotations from the "Aroch" from Rishonim who did have it. | |||
# Some Rishonim refer to Avodat HaKodesh as "Torat HaBayit" informally.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19)</ref> | |||
=Shu"T HaRashba= | |||
# The Rashba wrote thousands of Teshuvot. | |||
# The extant Shu"t HaRasha are a condensed version of the original.<ref>Yad Malachi (Klalei HaRashba 6)</ref> | |||
# Due to the fact that the Shu"t HaRashba printed in the times of the Beit Yosef was mistakenly attributed to the [[Ramban]], the Beit Yosef refers to it as Shu"t Ha[[Ramban]], even though he knew it was really the [[Rashba]]'s. This way, one who seeks to look up the source will know which Sefer to open.<ref>Hakdama to Beit Yosef</ref> | |||
# Some volumes of the Rashba are known as "Toldot Adam" according to some Rishonim.<Ref>Shem HaGedolim (Sefarim, Taf 9)</ref> | |||
=Misc.= | |||
# The Rashba also wrote a commentary on the Aggadot of Shas.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19)</ref> | |||
# He also had a hand in Kabbalah.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Gedolim, Shin 19)</ref> | |||
# A large chunk of Chiddushei HaRashba on Avodah Zarah, from 21b to 51a, is really the Tosafot HaRosh.<Ref>Mevo to Chiddushei HaRitva on Avodah Zarah, by R' Moshe Goldstein.</ref> | |||
# There's a discussion regarding the authenticity of the Chiddushei HaRashba on Menachot. See the introduction in the back of the Oz VeHadar volume on Menachot, where it's printed. | |||
# In order to resolve contradictions, the Sdei Chemed<ref>Sdei Chemed (Klalei HaPoskim 10:2). He does bring a Pri Megadim who considers the possibility that certain Teshuvot were written prior to the Torat HaBayit and leaves it beTzarich Iyun.</ref> delineates the order of authority and reverse chronology as follows: | |||
## Shu"t HaRashba | |||
## Torat HaBayit / Avodat HaKodesh / Piskei Challah / Shaar HaMayim | |||
## Chiddushei HaRashba | |||
