Shulchan Aruch

Where did the Beit Yosef, Rabbi Yosef Karo, live? In Safed. We know he was born in Spain and fled with his father during the Spanish Inquisition. But where was he in between, and why did he venture to an uninhabited land like Israel?

Today, the 3rd of Tishrei, marks 337 years since the passing of Rabbi Avraham Abele Gombiner, author of "Magen Avraham."
