 Shulkhan Arukh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The history of the Shulkhan Arukh is, in a way, identical with the history of rabbinical literature in Poland for a period of two centuries.
German Jewish authorities had been forced to give way to Polish ones as early as the beginning of the sixteenth century; and in the last third of that century Judaism in eastern Europe had become so entirely absorbed in the new Kabbalistic school of Isaac Luria that the study of the Talmud was greatly neglected.
Arukh HaShulkhan, by Rabbi Yechiel Michel Epstein, is a more analytical work attempting the same task from a different angle.

The most authoritative code, widely used to date as a handbook, is the Shulhan 'Arukh composed by R. Yosef Karo in the late 16th century as a popular condensation of his own much more voluminous Beys Yosef which was intended for the advanced scholar.
The Shulhan 'Arukh is much commented upon; in addition to classical commentaries dating from the 17th century, there is an important 20th century one, Mishnab Berurab.

So states Rabbi Yoseph Karo in Shulhan Arukh, Orah Hayyim 261 that there is a mitzvah to add from the weekday to Shabbat, Yom Tov and Yom Kippur at their commencement and end.
The time that is eligible for this addition is from the beginning of sunset (Shulhan Arukh refers to the first shekia of Rabenu Tam as 'tehilat hashekia' or the beginning of shekia.
Shulhan Arukh is also referring in this case to sunset and twilight of Rabenu Tam.

Both Shulhan Arukh and the Ramah, Rabbi Joseph Karo's younger contemporary who usually represents Ashkenazic practice in his glosses on Shulhan Arukh, ignored this minority view.
In addition to the general commitment to Shulhan Arukh, this particular decision reflects the overwhelming majority of classical commentators and decisors including the three pillars of Jewish Law, the Rif (11th C.), the Rambam (12th C.) and the Rosh (13th C.).
Shulhan Arukh states that if one didn't have kavana in at least the first berakha he should repeat the amida.

 Halachah in Brief #74
The case the Shulhan Arukh (Orah Hayyim 27;6) knows is that of a person who writes with his right hand and does everything else with the left.
The Shulhan Arukh records approvingly the opinion that we follow the way the person writes, while the Bah believed that we would follow that person’s general tendencies (this can get hard to determine— what is a person who throws right-handed, but bats left-handed and writes left-handed?).
Magen Avraham, although generally sympathetic to the Shulhan Arukh’s opinion, adds that in cases where the person was "switched," meaning that he was forced to learn an unnatural way of writing, we would ignore that and follow his general tendencies.

 Joseph Caro
His major works, the Beit Yosef and the Shulhan Arukh, are considered by many to be the ultimate authorities in halacha.
There was much criticism of the Shulhan Arukh as a sole halachic authority, and commentaries, such as the Bayit Hadash of Joel Sarkes, sprung up in opposition.
Also, the Shulhan Arukh was written mostly according to Sephardic tradition, so Moshe Isserles supplemented it with a commentary dictating Ashkenazic traditions where applicable.

Sepharadim who follow the opinions of Rambam and Shulhan Arukh, may be lenient to rely on their opinions and use hard soap on Shabbat as long as it does not cause any hair loss.
Rabbi Joseph Karo in Shulhan Arukh does not mention this law, but in his Bet Yoseph, he states that one should be strict and follow this opinion.
The Shulhan Aruch, Orah Hayyim, at the end of Chapter 320, states that when a person is eating berries or other fruits with strong dyes, they should not touch their napkin with their dirty hand because they will color the cloth.

 Halachah in Brief #66
A siman in Shulhan Arukh related to the mitsvah of etrog gives us the opportunity to begin to consider what halakhah has to say about how we spend our money.
The Shulhan Arukh adds that if a person is considering whether to buy one of two etrogim, that person should similarly spend a third more for the finer etrog, rather than be content with the less good one.
Rema rules that one is not allowed to spend more than a fifth of one’s assets to fulfill a positive commandment, based on an analogy to tsedakah, where we rule that even a generous person should not spend more than a fifth of his assets on charitable donations.

 Parashat Yithro - David Mescheloff
However, the Arukh Ha-Shulhan continues, "But one may not contradict him [emphasis D. M.] to his face, for this is disrespectful, but must deliberate the matter with him, until one acknowledges the other's point.
Regarding non-religious matters, Arukh ha-Shulhan raises the possibility that even this limitation on the form of expression is unnecessary, for disagreeing with someone, even one's parents, in non-religious matters is not an insult to the person's honor.
Arukh ha-Shulhan says, "It is clear that if a father says to his son, 'I would like to hear your views,' the son must answer as he sees the issue, both concerning religious questions and general matters, even if his views are diametrically opposed to those of his father" (ibid.)

 Jewish Law - Articles ("Jewish Law and Modern Business Structures: The Corporate Paradigm")
From the period of the mid- fourteenth century until the early seventeenth century, Jewish law underwent a period of codification, which led to the acceptance of the law code format of Rabbi Joseph Karo, called the Shulhan Arukh, which serves as the basis for modern Jewish law.
162 See Soloman Ganzfried, Kitzur Shulhan Arukh 65:28; Menashe Klein, Mishnah Halakhot 6:277; see also Moshe Sternbuch, Moadim Uzmanim 3:269 (stating that a corporation is a partnership unless all or most of the shareholders are non-Jews).

He goes on to say that not only according to Sepharadim who are bound by the Shulhan Aruch, who rules with Rambam like Rami Bar Hama, is such a practice forbidden but that even Ashkenazim, who may rely on the lenient ruling of the Rema, should desist from such a practice.
This prohibition is codified in the Shulhan Aruh73.

The publication of Joseph Caro's Shulhan Arukh  in the 16th century marked the end of an important era in the history of Jewish legal literature.
As with earlier codifications of Jewish law, the publication of the Shulhan Arukh was not universally accepted.
The publication of such substantial commentaries led to the eventual acceptance of the Shulhan Arukh, and in turn spawned new generations of commentaries and meta-commentaries that continue to be published today.

 The Shulkhan Arukh
The legal code known as the Shulkhan Arukh, compiled by the great Sephardic rabbi Joseph Caro in the mid­1500s, is still the standard legal code of Judaism.
A major reason for its universal acceptance is that it was the first code to list the differing customs and laws of both Sephardic and Ashkenazic Jewry.
To this day, rabbinic ordination (semikha) usually is given to a student only after he has been examined on the Shulkhan Arukh, particularly on those sections that deal with kashrut (dietary laws).

Elsewhere, the Shulhan Arukh makes it clear that on all other days of the year, we are expected to address God in the synagogue silently, so as not to disturb those sitting nearby.

The Shulkhan Arukh's exhaustive presentation of the details of Jewish law is suggested by the following, taken from the section listing the laws of Torah study, in which Karo gives directives to both teachers and pupils:
In 1536 he settled in Safed, Palestine, where he was ordained by the great Talmud authority, Rabbi Jacob Berab, and where he founded his own Talmudical academy (Yeshivah) and wrote most of his outstanding works.
His most popular work, the Shulhan Arukh, is a condensation and summary of his extensive work on Rabbinic Law, the Bet Yosef, which was originally planned as a commentary on Jacob ben Asher's code, the Arbaah Turim.

 Morsels of Hebrew Grammar
In his far more popular work, Shulhan Arukh (O.H. 489:1), Rabbi Karo lays down that one is required to say hayom yom ehad ('Today it is one day.'), and at that point Rabbi Moshe Isserles (Rema, 16th century) in his commentary Mapa inserts the word baOmer in small Rashi script in brackets.
Rabbi Judah Ashkenazi in his commentary on the Shulhan Arukh introduces a new factor: he writes that the Ari, the most widely accepted exponent of the Kabala, prefers laOmer.
The Mishnah Berurah (a commentary on Orah Haim, the first section of the Shulhan Arukh by Rabbi Israel Meir Kagan best known as the author of Hafetz Haim) states that though the majority of commentaries prefer laOmer, it is not necessary to say it that way.

[The Shulhan Arukh continues:] "No monetary calculations should be made there unless they are for religious purposes, collecting money for charity, for example, or for the redemption of captives.
The reason why the Shulhan Arukh treats the "house of study" more leniently than the synagogue is because scholars spend a good deal of their time in the former, so that a dispensation is required in order to enable them to study without interruption.
 Curiously enough, the Shulhan Arukh rules that it is permitted to spit in the synagogue provided the saliva is erased with the foot or where there is an absorbent material there so that the saliva is not seen.

Discussions on the question she raised fill many of the commentaries printed around the Shulhan Arukh, some rabbinic responsa and notes in many other works of the Aharonim, the later authorities.
