Letter in the handwriting of Rabbi Shlomo Michael Yona of Torino - Teshuvah in the laws of Eruvin.
Rabbi Shlomo Michael Yona, Av Beit Din of Torino , one of the greatest teaching teachers in Italy in the 18th century. Brother-in-law of Rabbi Yechiel Chaim Trevish Av Beit Din of Virzili. 'מתקיפי דארעא' [in the words of Rabbi Menachem Ezra Meir of Castelnuovo in his answers to the Valley of the King (page 21, b)]. One of the greatest sages of Eleesandria in Italy, where he received the Torah from the great Rabbi Eliyahu HaLevi, who was also his teacher Kabbalah. When the Chida arrived in the way of his mission to Alexandria, the soul of Rabbi Shlomo Michael became associated with the soul of the Chida and became friends. the Chida in his letters sailed in praise and testified that he was behaving in Hasidism and calls him "the affection of the right eye" (See Moriah, Tishrei 1992, brought a letter of admiration he wrote to the Chida in which he calls himself "the youngest of the young disciples of his students.") In his later years he was appointed Av Beit Din Torino.
His responsa concerning the polemic that arose in Italy regarding whether to say piyyutim on the night of Shemini Atzeret, which falls on the Sabbath before מזמור שיר ליום השבת, was agreed upon by Rabbi Eliyahu HaLevi, and the Ga'on Rabbi Yishmael HaCohen, Av Beit Din of Modina author of Zera Emet, [Sanz, vol. 5, 2003, p. 3].
