  Shulkhan Arukh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The Shulkhan Arukh (Hebrew: "Prepared Table"), by Rabbi Yosef Karo is considered the most authoritative compilation of Jewish law since the Talmud.
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.
Rabbi Shneur Zalman wrote the Shulkhan Arukh HaRav at the behest of the Hasidic leader, Rabbi Dovber of Mezeritch.

 Shlomo Ganzfried - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ganzfried was born in Uzhhorod (Ungvar) in the Carpathian region of the Habsburg Empire.
It was to this end that Ganzfried composed the Kitzur Shulkhan Arukh; it is not polemical in nature and was clearly intended to inform, rather than to argue.
The Kitzur Shulkhan Arukh in effect summarises the Shulkhan Arukh of Joseph Karo with reference to all subsequent commentaries (see also Chayei Adam) and incorporating Jewish Hungarian customs up to the 19th century.

Germany had been forced to give way to Poland as early as the beginning of the sixteenth century; and in the last third of that century the East had become so entirely absorbed in the new Kabbalistic school of Isaac Luria that the study of the Talmud was greatly neglected.
This point, especially, induced Isserles to write his glosses to the Shulkhan Arukh, that the customs (minhagim) of the Ashkenazim might be recognized, and not be set aside through Caro's reputation.
Since the 17th century, the Shulkhan Arukh is printed with Isserles' annotations in small print interspersed with Karo's text.

 Shulkhan Arukh   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Karo wrote the Shulkhan Arukh in his old age, for the benefit of those who did not possess the education necessary to understand the "Bet Yosef." The arrangement of this work is the same as that adopted by Jacob ben Asher in his "Arba'ah Turim," but more concise; nor are any authorities given.
He never refers to it in his responsa, but always to the "Bet Yosef." The Shulkhan Arukh, achieved its reputation and popularity not only against the wishes of the author, but, curiously enough, through the very scholars who attacked it.
David's criticism of Maimonides' code be compared with Isserles' criticism of Caro's Shulkhan Arukh, the question suggests itself why the Shulkhan Arukh became an authoritative code, in spite of opposition and against the will of its author, while Maimonides' "Yad" found no acceptance among the Franco-German Jews, owing to Abraham ben David's criticism and influence.

HaMapah is written as a gloss to the Shulkhan Arukh of Yosef Karo, discussing cases where Sephardi and Ashkenazi customs differ.
(Hamapah is the "tablecloth" for the Shulkhan Arukh, the "set table".) Karo had based his normative positions on three authorities: Maimonides, Asher ben Jehiel (the Rosh), and Isaac Alfasi (the Rif).
All editions of the Shulkhan Arukh since 1571 include Hamapah embedded in the text (introduced by הגה Hagahah, gloss), and distinguished by a semi-cursive, "Rashi", script.

The influential work of halacha, Shulkhan Arukh is a condensation of Beth Joseph and follows the basic structure of the Arba'ah Turim, including its division in four sections and chapters.
The organisation of the Shulkhan Arukh follows that of the Tur: subtopics are organised by sections (simanim) and laws (se'ifim) - this structure down to the siman is retained in the Shulkhan Arukh.
Students of the Shulkan Aruch, particularly in Orthodox Semicha programs, will study the Tur and the Beth Joseph together with the Shulkhan Arukh itself.

Some claim that nowadays, since many light inside, as we shall explain, and since there are people outside for many hours after dark, the beginning of the night no longer has any great halakhic significance, and one may light at any time.
The Gemara (Shabbat 21b) teaches that the "mitzvah" is to light outside of the entrance to one's house.
The Shulkhan Arukh rules (like Tosafot) that one should preferable light at the entrance to one's "chatser" (courtyard), as maximum Pirsume Nisa is achieved.
