Document Archive from the Estate of the Gaon and Yerushalmi Activist Rabbi Aharon Simchah Blumenthal. Approximately [120] Letters and Postcards. Historic Discoveries
Large collection of documents from Rabbi Aharon Simchah Blumenthal's archive. Rabbi Blumenthal was a prominent Torah scholar and renowned Yerushalmi activist. Between the lines of these letters are Yerushalmi affairs and intrigues, some of which are unknown, and some not yet researched in-depth, and this collection sheds light on them. Important Yerushalmi collection.
Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a partial list of the documents and historic background that sheds light on their historical importance and the lofty rabbinic and diplomatic status of their writers and signatories.
One of the discoveries in this collection, revealed here for the first time: Letter from Rabbi Chaim HaKohen Kook from 1934 in which he denies the rumour about Rabbi Kook ostensibly permitting violation of Shabbat for the release of Ze'ev Jabotinsky.
Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of R' Aharon Simchah Blumenthal.
The collection includes over [120] letters and postcards. Various sizes.
Overall very fine condition.
