  1. Siddur of Saadia Gaon

    Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 The Siddur prayerbook of Saadia Gaon is the earliest surviving attempt to transcribe the weekly ritual of Judaism Jewish prayers for week days, Sabbaths, and festival s apart from the prayer book of Amram Gaon , of which there is no authoritative text . The text also contains liturgical poetry by Saadia, as well as Arabic language commentary. There is no known extant manuscript of the entire text, though there is a near complete manuscript in Oxford . Fragments have also been found in the Cairo Genizah . The prayerbook apparently served as a basis for later efforts to codify the Jewish prayer ritual and set it down in writing and was imitated by later authors. An edition based on these manuscripts has been published by Davidson, Assaf and Yoel in Jerusalem in 1941. The Arabic portions are accompanied by translations into Hebrew in facing columns.

Eras of the Halakha Achai Gaon also known as Ahai of Sabha or Aha of Sabha was a leading scholar in the period of the Geonim , an 8th century Talmud ist of high renown. He enjoys the distinction of being the first rabbinical author known to history after the close of the Talmud . As he never actually became the Gaon of either of the two Talmudic academies in Babylonia academies , the description Gaon attached to his name is a misnomer. Life The gaon of Pumbedita having died, A a was universally acknowledged to be the fittest man to succeed him. But a personal grudge entertained by the exilarch Solomon bar asdai induced the latter to pass over A a, and to appoint Natronai ben Nehemiah , A a s secretary, a man considerably his inferior in learning and general acquirements. Highly incensed at this slight, the eminent scholar left Babylonia and settled in Palestine , about 752 753, where he remained until his death. Notwithstanding Steinschneider Cat. Bodl. s.v. , who erroneously assigns 761 as the year, the exact date of his demise is unknown.
