Marriage Certificate of the Kabbalist Rabbi Sroyah Devlitzky, Signed by the Even HaAzel


Original certificate - Edah Chareidit wedding certificate for the marriage of "Mr. Sroyah Devlitzky" - later a leading Kabbalist of his generation, to his wife, Chayah Yanofsky, daughter of Rabbi Chaim Ozer of Rishon LeTziyon. Jerusalem, 1945.


Signed on the certificate as the officiating rabbi is the mighty gaon Rabbi Isser Zalman Meltzer, one of the leaders of the Chareidi public in the Land of Israel at the time. The witnesses were Rabbi Avraham Abba Rakovsky and Rabbi Yehoshua Chanan Turchin (apparently the witnesses' names were not written by the witnesses themselves).


Wikipedia lists the date of their marriage as 1945, however, the date 1946 is written here explicitly.


Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for brief biographies of the gaon Rabbi Isser Zalman Meltzer and the gaon and Kabbalist Rabbi Sroyah Devlitzky.
