Beit HaMiddot – Tyrnau, 1941 – Signature and Glosses by Rabbi Yissachar Shlomo Teichtal Author of Mishneh Sachir and Em HaBanim Semecha – Published during WWII
Beit HaMiddot, on Tractate Middot, by R. Yosef Aharon Fränkel. Tyrnau (Trnava), 1941.
The book was published during WWII, under the pro-Nazi regime in Slovakia. It includes various illustrations.
Copy of R. Yissachar Shlomo Teichtal, author of Mishneh Sachir and Em HaBanim Semecha, with his signature on the front endpaper. Two glosses handwritten by R. Teichtal on p. 2b, one of which is lengthy and relates to the author's discussion on whether the final Redemption and building of the Third Temple will occur in a miraculous or natural way. R. Teichtal quotes sources which corroborate the second option.
These glosses reflect R. Teichtal's focus on the topics of exile and redemption during the Holocaust, even before the publication of his book Em HaBanim Semecha in 1943.
R. Yissachar Shlomo Teichtal (1885-1945; perished in the Holocaust). Rabbi and dean of Pishtian (Piešťany). During the Holocaust, he changed his position from staunch opposition to Jewish settlement of Eretz Israel to advocating the rebuilding of the land as a means of bringing about the Final Redemption.
