Chiddushei Torah handwritten by Rabbi Haim Eliezer Shapira of Munkatch

Chiddushei Torah on official paper of “the Presidency of the Kollel of Munkatch”, handwritten by the Admor of Munkatch, Rabbi Haim Eliezer Shapira (the Minchat Eliezer), on the kiddushin of a woman who is half-servant and half-free, based on Shut Ben Yehuda, siman 152 (the content was analyzed and printed by Rabbi Yitzhak Yeshaya Weiss shlita, Rabbi of Neve Achiezer, in the journal Tzfonot. Thanks to the Ohr Torah Munkatch network for the help). Size: 28.5x22cm. Stains, light tears in the margins, overall good condition.


The Admor Rabbi Haim Eliezer Shapira (1872-1937) succeeded his father, Rabbi Zvi Hirsch of Munkatch, and was an important Eastern European rabbi between the two world wars, who led a conservative and combative line against Zionism and the Agudas Yisrael. In addition to the Minchat Eliezer, he also wrote Ot Haim v’Shalom and more. He established the Tiferet Zvi Kollel named after his father, and founded the Batei Munkatch neighborhood in Nachlaot. After World War I he founded the Darchei Tshuva yeshiva.
