Yom Teruah, novellæ on Tractate Rosh Hashana (Ortakeni, 1714)
Tosphot Yom Hakipurim, novellæ on Tractate Yoma (Constantinople, 1727 )
Kapot Temarim, novellæ on Tractate Succah (Constantinople, 1731)
The work has been widely respected among Talmudic scholars since its publication, and it has been the subject of novellae by such luminaries as Rabbi Akiva Eger and Rabbi Joseph Saul Nathanson. The manuscript of his responsa was lost at sea; part survived and was published under the title Kol Gadol (Great Sound) in 1907 in Jerusalem.

Moshe ibn Habib served as the rabbi and Jerusalem and the head of the yeshiva until the day he died in 1696, before his 43rd birthday. He did not live to see any of his manuscripts published. However, his grandson (his daughter’s son) Rabbi Jacob Culi edited his manuscripts and saw to their publication. At the time there was no printing press in Jerusalem and Rabbi Jacob traveled to Constantinople with the manuscript to try to get it published. Although he arrived there in 1714, the manuscript was only published in 1725, 25 years after the author’s death. The publisher cited the help of Rabbi Haim Alfandari.
