Commentary on Talmud Bavli and Yerushalmi by Rabbi Meir Arik (1855-1926), a famous Galician Torah scholar.

Rabbi Arik was so highly respected by the leading Rabbis of his generation, that following the death of Rabbi Schwadron, the Belzer Rav directed all halachik questions to Rabbi Arik in his place. He was the posek of the Galician town Buchach (in present-day Ukraine. However, during World War I, Arik fled to the Austrian city of Vienna, but returned to Galicia after the war.

Rabbi Arik's students include Rabbi Reuvein Margolies and Rabbi Meir Shapiro who were acknowledged leaders of their generation, as well as his nephews, the late Klausenberger Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Aharon Yehuda Wilner and Rabbi Aharon Yehuda Arik.

Rabbi Arik's opinions are cited extensively by his contemporaries, as well as later halachic authorities including the Chelkas Yaakov, Kinyan Torah beHalacha, and Mar'eh Yechezkel. Some consider the reluctance of other great halachic decisors to rule against his opinions a sign of unique reverence.
