'כל המחלה אשר שמתי במצרים לא אשים עליך כי אני ה' רופאך'

Handwritten Torah Novellae by the Chasam Sofer.

Leaf from the Sacred Mattersdorf Manuscript, 1802.

The double-sided page contains a total of 4 columns and 6 complete paragraphs encompassing commentary on the parshiyos of Beshalach and Yisro.

“The Chasam Sofer’s novellae on Aggadah are deeply treasured by hundreds of thousands of Jews who delve into their study every Shabbos and Yom Tov...” (Preface to Toras Moshe)

Page size: 24x18.5 cm. Good condition. Attractive leather binding.
