On the title page the publishers note that in this edition they have added the glosses of the Maharshal, which had so far been printed separately “and we were aroused by the famous Gaon, Rabbi Levi Yitzchak, Av Beis Din of Berditchev that it is a good idea to connect sister to sister so that all the innovations in halacha and all commentaries will stick together”.
