Title Page of Beit Elokim – Signature of Author's Son the Maharit
Signature of author's son: "Yosef ben Rabbi Moshe Mitrani" [the handwriting was compared to his other known signatures and has been clarified as his handwriting, see attached photographs]. Additional inscriptions in various handwritings and several signatures of renowned rabbis, of the Chermon family.
Rabbi Yosef Mitrani – the Maharit (1868-1639), son of Rabbi Moshe Mitrani – the Mabit, was born in Sefad in the time of the "Beit Yosef" and was one of its leading Torah scholars. In 1601, he departed for Constantinople where he taught many disciples [Rabbi Yehoshua Banabashti, author of "Sde Yehoshua" on the Yerushalmi, his brother Rabbi Chaim Banabashti, author of "Knesset HaGedola", Rabbi Aharon Lapfa, Rabbi Chaim Abulafia etc.] and after 20 years he was appointed head of Constantinople rabbis. His famous book, Maharit responsa (Maharimat) was printed by his sons after his death. Rabbi Yehonatan Eibeshitz and Rabbi Ya'akov Emden write that "he was the greatest of the later poskim and an outstanding Torah authority" (see Kreiti U'Pleiti, Siman 110, Kuntress Beit H'Sefeikot; She'elat Ya'avetz responsa, Yoreh Deah, Siman 142).
