Rare – Pair of Booklets Torah VeMitzvah by Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch Asher Kahana (Ritzvah) – Jerusalem, 1913 (תרע”ג) This is a rare pair of booklets titled Torah VeMitzvah, authored by Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch Asher Kahana, known as Ritzvah. The work was published in Jerusalem in 1913 (תרע”ג). The purpose of these booklets is to guide the reader on the proper intentions and mindfulness to have before performing each mitzvah, offering a deeper understanding of the spiritual significance behind the commandments. At the beginning of the booklet, there is an approbation (Haskamah) from the Chabad scholar, Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Lublin, further emphasizing the importance and value of the work. Condition: Good. The booklets have soft covers and are in well-preserved condition, with slight signs of age and wear but the text is clear and the booklets remain structurally intact. These booklets are of great value both as historical artifacts and for those interested in the proper intentions (kavanah) for the performance of mitzvot. The approbation by a prominent Chabad figure adds to their significance within the Chabad community. They are rare, especially in such well-preserved condition, making them a sought-after item for collectors of early 20th-century Jewish religious works and for those studying Jewish law and mysticism.
