Klalim

  1. The Rashba had editions of Tosafot other than the one printed on the page of our Gemaras.[1]
  2. In Avodat HaKodesh, the Rashba writes "יראה לי" when referring to Halachot from the Yerushalmi, Tosefta, and anything else not mentioned in Talmud Bavli.[2]
  3. The Mishmeret HaBayit was written by the Rashba,[3] but it wasn't in print at the times of the Beit Yosef, Rama, and Maharshal for them to see it.[4]
  4. The Baalei HaTosafot and Rashba share a similar approach, therefore, if the Rashba copies Tosafot, it's a sign of agreement.[5]
  5. The extent Shu"t HaRasha are a condensed version of the original.[6]
  6. Maharashdam relates often how his rebbe, Maharitatz would weigh the Rashba's position on a matter equal to the majority of Poskim.[7] Similar statements are made by Rav Yosef Karo and the Radbaz.[8]
  7. The Kenesset HaGedolah recommends following the Tashbetz over the Rashba, as he came later.[9] On the other hand, the Beit David[10] advises following the Tashbetz over the Terumat HaDeshen, even though the latter was later and deserves much honor, because the Tashbetz was simply much greater.[11]
