We're writing this up too, of course. Perhaps I can get out a very drafty proposal to you by tomorrow. In the meantime, you can consult the article by Heidi and Joan in Cataloging and Classification Quarterly (v. 49: p. 675-695 (2011). I find it pretty hard to wrap my head around the RDA instructions that apply to this question, but Heidi is much more confident than I about this one.

I have a question regarding the 240 field: Till now we used to put in the 240 the title proper of the book ignoring the words Sefer, Kuntres, etc. (Berit ha-Levi for Sefer Berit ha-Levi). Does it mean that in RDA the 240 field will actually ignore the Title proper of the book and it will be replaced by a 246 field?

I think this is a separate question from the last one. If it's not possible to determine which is the first or predominant work, then either
1) the thing can't be considered a compilation, per the answer to the last question, or
2) it belongs to one of the exempted categories in the LC-PCC PSs on 25.1 and 26.2
If neither of these is the case, I don't really see how one could ever be unable to determine the first work (OR the predominant work, for that matter). Of course this work has to have a TITLE (and that's why collections of letters are exempted, for example).

Often in such cases it is not clear which is the "first or predominant work" -- it's all just one big jumble.

What is one to do in a case where several such terms are given in a book's title? E.g.:
Sefer Yalḳuṭ ʻavodat Yiśraʼel : ḳevutsat maʼamarim, liḳuṭim yeḳarim, ʻal seder parashiyot ha-Torah ... / me-et Yiśraʼel, magid me-yesharim di-ḳḳ. Ḳoznits ; nilḳeṭu, neʻerkhu ṿe-sudru be-tseruf meḳorot, ʻiyunim ṿe-heʻarot ʻa. y. Mosheh Yeḥezḳel ha-Leṿi Blumenberg. (lccn2005352488)

Here's a draft Heidi and I have written for inclusion in the 2nd ed of Hebraica Cataloging.
Further comments from you?

PROPOSED NEW SECTION FOR HCM 2ND ED
Joan Biella and Heidi Lerner
The use of conventional collective titles is considerably expanded under RDA, owing to the fact that a distinction between “adequate” and “inadequate” titles proper, as described in LCRI 25.10, is no longer made. Any compilation of two or more but not all of the works of a single person, family, or corporate body requires a conventional collective title followed by “Selections,” (cf. LC-PCC PS for the Alternative to 6.2.2.10.3).
For some types of compilations, an authorized access point for the first or predominant work in the compilation is also required (cf. LC-PCC PS for 26.1).
6.2.2.10.3 Other Compilations of Two or More Works, LC practice for the Alternative
For a compilation consisting of two or more but not all the works of one person, family, or corporate body, in a particular form, record a conventional collective title followed by “Selections.” Give an authorized access point for the first or predominant work (Policy Statement 25.1) or expression (Policy Statement 26.1).
LC-PCC PS for 26.1 Related Expression
For compilations of expressions other than those which include the original expression and one or more translations, give an analytical authorized access point for the predominant or first expression in the compilation when it represents a substantial part of the resource. Disregard contributions such as a preface or introductory chapter. Generally, do not apply this core element to anthologies of poetry, hymnals, conference proceedings, journals, collections of interviews or letters, and similar resources.
Instruction 6.2.2.10.2 Complete Works in a Single Form provides a list of frequently-used conventional collective titles, and adds “If none of these terms is appropriate, record an appropriate specific collective title (e.g., Posters, Fragments, Encyclicals).”
