Rare book, pretty, complete copy The Gaon and Kadosh Rabbi Boruch Frankel Teumim of Leipnik (1760-1828) was one of the giants of his generation. He was known as a genius and famous for his sharp mind. He wrote extensively, and his glosses can be found in the book margins of his seforim. He studied with his father, Ha'Gaon Rabbi Yehoshua Yechezkel Feivel Teumim of Ostrovah and Ha'Gaon Rabbi Leiber Charif RAB”D Cracow and under Rabbi Dovid Tebli of Lisa. At the age of nineteen, he was appointed as AB”D in Vishinitza. After the passing of Ha'Gaon Rabbi Binyomin Wolf Eiger, he was appointed as AB”D in Leipnik, a position that he kept for thirty years. The Chasam Sofer testified that he could have revived the Torah with his genius had others forgotten it.

None of his students was able to comprehend the depths of his teachings…” His famous son-in-law, The Divrei Chaim of Sanz zy”a, was his prime disciple and edited his sefer, the Boruch Ta'am. The Sanzer Rebbe wrote in his preface: In the almost one year that I lived with him. He taught me most of Shas with the perushim of the Rishonim, and he kept on teaching me wonderous lessons with his pilpulim… He taught me some of his pilpul and his way of learning, and from these lessons, I will write about in the sefer…. He wrote many seforim: Boruch Ta'am, Ateres Chachomim, Marganisa D'Rav, Boruch Sh'amar, and others that were either lost or not published.
