Halachot Pesukot (Hebrew: הלכות פסוקות) is a condensed rabbinic work written by Yehudai Gaon in the Geonic Era, containing chapters on common Jewish halachic themes. The work was compiled in the 8th-century and is written in Aramaic, and follows the format of Halachot Gedolot which antedates it by about 20 years.^[1]

While the work is generally attributed to Gaon, some scholars disagree that he wrote the work, and attribute scholarship to Rabbi Exilarch Natronai Bar Habibai Nasi.^[2]

In 1886, A.L. Schlossberg published in Versailles an edition of Halachot Pesukot which he based on the Oxford Manuscript. In 1911, David Solomon Sassoon purchased a handwritten manuscript of the work while visiting Yemen, which based on its style, appears to have been written in Babylon or Persia in the ninth or tenth century.^[3] A description of the manuscript is found in Sassoon's Ohel Dawid catalogue. The manuscript was first published by his son, Solomon David Sassoon, in 1951,^[4] and has been published several times since then by other editors.^[5][6]

Schlossberg's edition, which he prepared from the Oxford Manuscript, differs slightly from the Sassoon Manuscript version. Schlossberg's edition contains 3 additional halakhic discourses on Megillah, Hanukkah, and Kosher wine, which do not appear in Sassoon's copy. Conversely, Sassoon's copy contains 2 additions not found in Schlossberg's edition: Berakhot and the Defects of slaughtered animals in the Land of Israel.^[7]
