Letter in holy handwriting of the holy Gaon Rabbi Menachem Mendel Kirschbaum.
The letter is addressed to Rabbi Avigdor Amiel, Chief Rabbi of Tel Aviv.
Frankfurt 5696.
Rabbi Menachem Mendel Kirschbaum hi"d - was born in Cracow in 1895 to his father Rabbi Shmuel, a great scholar and merchant and a disciple, who was a great Torah scholar, Rarely, when he grew up, he went to study with the Gaon Rabbi Pinchas Eliyahu D'Embeiser in Krakow. In 1927 he was appointed Dayan, a rabbi in Sakala, and later served as the rabbi of the city of Frankfurt on the river Until 1939. In 1934 he traveled to Poland to discuss with the great sages the issue of slaughtering and mowing the beasts. Six weeks before the outbreak of the war, he emigrated to Brussels, Belgium, where he served as rabbi in the Beit Midrash of Ahavat Shalom, and was one of the founders of Beit Ve'ad. Although he had a permit to immigrate to Eretz Israel, he relinquished the right in the hope that once he had gone into a rage, he would return to his community in Frankfurt, to which he was deeply attached.
The Germans occupied Belgium in 1940. He escaped through the French border but was caught by gunfire.
On Saturday, when he was on his way to synagogue, he was caught by the Gestapo. Because his papers were not in his hands, which he did not want to carry on Saturday, he was sent to Malin where the Jews were rounded up until they were sent to Auschwitz.
He arrived at Auschwitz at the age of 47, and his teachings were printed in Zion for Menahem.
Condition; Very Good, folding marks, few stains of time.
