Rabbi Shlomo Sirilio

1485 CE–1554 CE · Acharonim · Jerusalem

Rabbi Shlomo Sirilio authored one of the first comprehensive commentaries on the Talmud Yerushalmi, covering Seder Zeraim and tractate Shekalim. His work addressed textual corruptions in existing manuscripts and elucidated the unique Galilean Aramaic dialect, distinguishing it from the Babylonian Talmud. Cited authoritatively by contemporaries including Rabbi Yosef Karo in the Beit Yosef, the commentary remained in manuscript until its initial printing in 1875.
