Manuscript, Rabbi Eliyahu Landa - Roots of the Verbs in the Bible and commentary on Nevi'im Rishonim
Manuscript, Roots of the Verbs in the Bible and commentary on Nevi'im Rishonim. Handwritten by Rabbi Eliyahu Landa, grandson of Hagr"a. [circa 1900s].
The author is unknown, it might be Rabbi Eliyahu himself, and it is also possible that this is of the teachings of his ancestors Rabbi Elazar or Rabbi Ya'akov Moshe of Slonim, grandsons of Hagr"a. [The notes are definitely by Rabbi Eliyahu].
Rabbi Eliyahu Landa (1873-1946), fourth generation to the Vilna Gaon. Born in Jerusalem to his father Rabbi Elazar of Slonim (1818-1874, see item 214). Who came to Eretz Israel in 1868 and married the daughter of Rabbi Ze'ev Wolfinson Be Avraham Dayan of Shklov, of the disciples of Harg"a who emigrated to Eretz Israel. His father passed away in 1874 and left him an orphan at the age of 6 months. Studied at the "Etz Hayim" Yeshivah. Established charity institutions in Jerusalem. Printed books and during his lifetime published over 50 books. Published the writings of Hagr"a. Initiated the publishing of the Bible by Jews, as in his times all editions of the Bible were printed by the Mission. As part of his trade in books, religious objects and Etrogim, he arrived in the US, established there "Beit Ha-Midrash Eliyahu" after Hagr"a, but refused to stay there and returned to Eretz Israel.
