Manuscript. Mishpat Lashon Hakodesh by the Hebrew Grammarian Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Henna
This manuscript authored by the renowned Hebrew grammarian Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Henna, presents a summary of all rules and principles of Hebrew grammar including letters, vowels, nouns, verbs and cantillation. It is likely that this manuscript was the earlier edition of his famous printed work Shaarei Torah (Hamburg, 1718).
Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Henna (1687-1746) was a prolific author who was widely acknowledged as one of the greatest Hebrew grammarians of his era. It is interesting to note that his proposed amendment into the prayer text evoked widespread objections. His famous published works include Binyan Shlomo (Frankfurt, 1708); Shaarei Torah and Shaarei Zimra (Hamburg, 1718); Shaarei Tefillah and Siddur Beis Tefillah (Jeßnitz, 1725); Yesod Hanikud (Amsterdam, 1730); and Tzohar Hateivah (Berlin, 1733).
