Book of Regulations of the Ottoman Rabbinate - Ladino. Turkey, 1913 - Only edition
חכמחאני ניזאמנאמיסי איסטאטוטו אורגאניקו דילה קומונידא'ד איסראאיליטה - The regulations of the Ottoman rabbinate according to the law established on August 23, 1287 (year 1881) - The book of the laws of the rabbinate in Turkey - Constantinople - Istanbul 1913. Ladino. The first and only edition of this rare book of laws of the rabbinate in the year 1333, which was published during the time of Chacham Bashi Rabbi Chaim Nahum (Served a "Chacham Bashi" in the years 1909-1920), after the proclamation of the second constitutional monarchy, "to embark on a process of reorganization of the Jewish community and the rabbinate ".
A historical document in Ladino that determines the hierarchy of the rabbinate in Turkey, and which effectively reduced the number of members of the rabbinate in the various cities that was established in 1881. In 1913, it was established that only seven rabbis would have the spiritual authority to enforce religious laws and regulations and supervise the rabbis of the communities. It was also stipulated here that the Ottoman Jewish community would be divided into eight rabbinical districts outside Istanbul in the cities of Baghdad, Edirne, Izmir, Thessaloniki, Cairo, Alexandria and Jerusalem. Each district had its own chief rabbi and communal institutions, which officially operated under the authority of the chief rabbi of İstanbul. In 1880, the leadership consisted of dozens of members, including sixty laymen and twenty rabbis. The members of the General Council, together with forty representatives from the provincial communities, would choose the Chief Rabbi from a list of five candidates proposed by the Council of the Laymen. Now the choice has been reduced to only seven rabbis, and for the first time, extensive authorities have been given to the Chacham Bashi himself.
Before us is one of the most important Jewish documents that came out in the Ottoman Empire, since the regulations established in it effectively determined the arrangement and the rabbinical hierarchy for the decades that followed.
