Collection of responsa from Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, written to his primary disciple Rabbi Efraim Greenblatt. All in his hand and with his signature at the conclusion: ידידו אוהבו בלו"נ משה פיינשטיין [His friend who loves him with heart and soul, Moshe Feinstein].

Rabbi Moshe Feinstein [1895-1986] was one of the most prominent halachic adjudicators after the Holocaust. He was the president of Agudat Yisrael's Council of Torah Sages in the United States and rosh yeshiva of Metivta Tiferet Yerushalayim in New York. He was noted for his Shu"t Iggrot Moshe series.

Rabbi Efraim Greenblatt [1932-2014] was a halachic adjudicator and the author of the Rivavot Efraim responsa. He was one of the foremost halachic adjudicators of our time, and Rabbi Moshe Feinstein's primary disciple.
