Autograph Letter from the Minchas Elazar of Munkacz
Letter from the Admor Rabbi Chaim Elazar Shapira of Munkacz written on the verso of a postcard.
The front of the postcard includes a handwritten letter from Rabbi Chaim Elazar’s attendant,
Rabbi Chaim David Greenfield, who served the Darchei Teshuva as well.
Rabbi Chaim Eliezer Shapira (1871-1937), also known as the Minchas Elazar, was the son of the Darchei Teshuva and the Admor of Munkatch. He was one of the great rabbinical leaders of Hungary before World War II and fought passionately to preserve Jewish tradition. His writings were published in many sefarim including Responsa Minchas Elazar - five parts, Darchei Teshuva on Nidah, Darchei Chaim V’Shalom, Likutei Divrei Torah, Chaim V’Shalom and more.
