In it one can find lists of the monies he collected for Israel's poor, information about the life and habits of the Jewish communities he passed through, people in high positions he met, like the king of France, leaders of communities and visits by great, famous Torah scholars.1 During one of his voyages he was engrossed in the study of Torah in his cabin onboard ship when someone knocked on the door. When the merchant tried to convince the Chida that he himself oversaw the whole process and everything was completely kosher, the Chida replied that he cannot rely on his word alone and will not be able to give the requested certificate. From then on he continued to travel to different Jewish centers in many countries as a messenger of the Rabbis of the Holy Land, collecting dona- tions from the Jews for the poverty stricken Jews in Jerusalem and Hebron. Biographical note: Rabbi Chaim-Yosef-David Azulai [Sivan 5484 – 11 Adar 5566 (1724 –1806)], universally known as the "Chida," is a highly respected rabbinical scholar, Kabbalist, historian and bibliographer. the "TillesTells Saturday Night Stories” WhatsApp group –1 Printable, 1 Audio, 1 Video THE PUZZLING KASHRUT CERTIFICATE The Chida, Rabbi Chaim-Yosef-David Azulai, travelled extensively. When the merchant realized that his scam was revealed, he confessed in tears that he forced the Chida to write the certificate and that actually the cheese he imported was not kosher.

His translation of the Torah into Aramaic is so widely accepted that it is printed in nearly every edition of the Torah that is printed together with the explanations of Rashi. Suddenly a though occurred to him, he went over to his bookshelves, took out his chumash, searched for the right verse in order to look up the translation of Onkelus3 there. Several times he traveled abroad for periods of over five years each, usually as an emissary of the communities of the Holy Land, and once to serve as the Rav of Cairo.
