Letter of Torah Teachings by Rabbi Yosef Zundel Hutner, Rabbi of Eišiškės
A letter of Torah teachings by Rabbi Yosef Zundel Hutner. Eišiškės, 1903. [Was not printed].
The letter was sent to Rabbi Yitzchak Meisel (Otzar HaRabbanim 10810) with a response to Rabbi Yitchak's comments on his book. Among other matters, he answers a question on the Tiferet Yisrael and writes: "A most difficult question and such a mistake is very surprising for such a great man and so that a sage should not appear at error, G-d forbid, I shall give an explanation...".
Rabbi Yoseph Zundel Hutner (1846-1899) was a great Lithuanian Torah luminary who was a study partner of Rabbi Meir Simcha HaCohen for a number of years. At the time R. Yoseph Zundel was offered to serve as rabbi of his hometown, Dvinsk, he feared that the yoke of the rabbinate of such a large city may hinder his studies, so he suggested the position to his friend the author of Or Sameach. From 1881, Rabbi Yoseph Zundel served in the rabbinate of Deretchin and from 1897 he was Rabbi and headed the yeshiva in Eišiškės. He authored the Chevel Yosef books [a general name for his renowned books on the four parts of the Shulchan Aruch, Ulam HaMishpat, Chedrei De'ah, Ginzei Chaim and Chukei Ha'Azara].
The Chafetz Chaim admired him and often sent people who turned to him for counsel and salvation to Rabbi Yoseph Zundel attesting that he is a great tsaddik and they should travel to him and ask him to pray for them. The Chafetz Chaim asked him for an approbation for his book Likutei Halachot.
