Sod Hashem - Vienna, 1837 - With a Handwritten Circumcision Ledger - Lessen and Ortelsburg (Poland), 1842-1866
Sod Hashem, with Sharbit HaZahav - order of Brit Milah with laws and commentaries, by R. David of Lida. Vienna, 1837.
Pocket sized, landscape format book. Originally bound with many empty leaves, intended for recording circumcisions. These leaves indeed served as a circumcision ledger, and contain handwritten inscriptions recording some 150 circumcisions performed in 1842-1866, by the mohel who owned this book, in Lessen (present day: Łasin, Poland) and Ortelsburg (present day: Szczytno, Poland). The records include the names of the babies he circumcised, as well as other details.
The owner of the ledger signed his name in several places in German: "Abraham Marcus[?]".
An inscription on the first handwritten leaf states: "The names of the children whom G-d, in His great kindness, granted me the merit of bringing under the wings of the Shechinah through circumcision, from the year 1842, Rosh Chodesh Adar, here in Lessen". Other inscriptions in the ledger state: "Here, Ortelsburg".
65 leaves + [17] handwritten leaves. Height: approx. 9 cm. Width: 12 cm. Good condition. Stains and wear. Original binding, torn and damaged.
