  Shlomo Ganzfried - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shlomo Ganzfried (Solomon ben Joseph Ganzfried; Hungary, 1804 to 1886) was an Orthodox rabbi and posek best known as author of the work of Halakha (Jewish law), the Kitzur Shulkhan Arukh (Hebrew: קיצור שולחן ערוך, "Abbreviated Shulkhan Arukh"), by which title he is also known.
Ganzfried was born in Uzhhorod (Ungvar) in the Carpathian region of the Habsburg Empire.
Ganzfried was considered to be a child prodigy and Ungvar's chief rabbi and Rosh yeshiva, Rabbi Zvi Hirsh Heller assumed legal guardianship; Heller was known as "Hershele the Sharp-witted" for his piercing insights into the Talmud.

Halacha-Yomi is a translation of the "Kitzur Shulchan Aruch", Rabbi Shlomo Ganzfried's classic compendium of Jewish Law from the late 19th Century CE.
It is important to note that the application of the principles of Jewish Law frequently depends upon the unique context to which they are applied; consequently, a specific ruling of 150 years ago will not necessarily be the accepted practice today.
Furthermore, not all the rulings of Rabbi Shlomo Ganzfried in his "Kitzur Shulchan Aruch" are accepted as definitive.

My grandfather, OBM, was from Ungvar (now Uzhgorod) the city in which Rabbi Shlomo Ganzfried, the author of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch was born and where he was Av Bet Din.
When I was a small boy my grandfather told me that when he was a small boy Rabbi Ganzfried was old and infirm and had to be carried to shul on something (a stretcher, chair, bed).
I am fairly sure that the story did refer to shabbat and that Rabbi Ganzfried was carried on something, not just helped to walk.

Today, with the widespread breakdown in the nuclear family, this ruling is violated in ways that Rabbi Ganzfried might not have anticipated.
For example, a friend of mine was involved in an acrimonious divorce.

The mishkan was built so that Hashem could again reside amongst men, as the Torah states (Shoot 25:8): "They will build Me a mishkan so that I may reside amongst them." Thus, the day on which the mishkan/tabernacle was dedicated was as joyous for Hashem as the day on which Hashem created the world.

 Hirhurim - Musings
Originally published by R. Shlomo Ganzfried in Ungvar, Ukraine in 1864, the work was in many ways an attempt to fill the breaches of Reform by making available to the masses a simple and concise guide to Jewish practice.
Because life has changed in many significant ways since R. Ganzfried wrote his classic work, the book often focuses on areas that are not particularly practical today.
One example is his emphasis of the laws of kosher slaughtering, something that is no longer relevant to the average Jew now that slaughtering has been centralized.
