Letter from Reb Boruch Ber Leibowitz. Kamenitz 1925. Rescuing Rabbi Gedalia Schneider.


A handwritten and signed letter from Reb Boruch Ber Lebowitz, as rosh Yeshiva of Kamemitz, appealing to the Chief Rabbi of Yerushalayim Rabbi Yosef Zvi Dushinski, to help rescue Rabbi Gedalia Schneider, the son of Rabbi Moshe Schneider from Frankfurt, who is in terrible danger.

Rabbi Baruch Ber Leibowitz (1864-1940), a leading Rosh yeshiva in Lithuania in the era immediately preceding the Holocaust. His yeshiva in Kaminetz became a great center of Torah with students coming from all over the world to hear his lectures. His classic work Birchas Shmuel is considered a fundamental text in many Lithuanian yeshivas
