Meir Leib Hirsch in 1942. Accompanied by a letter of testimony from the longtime attendant (mashbak) Rabbi Meir HaKohen Deutch, attesting that Rebbe Yoel Teitelbaum, prayed from this Berdichev siddur for an extended period during the 1960s. Later, in the early 1970's, it was presented as a gift to his nephew, Rabbi Yehuda Steinmetz. With The signature of the Mashba''k Rabbi Meir Deutch. Stamp of Rabbi Yehuda Steinmetz. To describe the immense importance of a siddur and Tehillim used by one of the great sages and holy leaders of Israel, our master, the holy Satmar Rebbe is beyond words. How awe-inspiring is this siddur, in which the pillar of Israel’s prayers, a holy and exalted man of God, poured out his soul in heartfelt supplication like a child pleading before his Father in Heaven, seeking salvation for both the community and the individual, and for the sake of the Divine Presence and the Congregation of Israel.
