Written on the title page: "Amarot Tehorot Part II, contains eight sermons for Yom Kippur before Kol Nidrei, with some other sermons for Sukkot and for Simchat Torah". This manuscript contains 13 inspirational sermons, most delivered on Yom Kippur before Kol Nidrei and several which were delivered on Sukkot and on Simchat Torah. From the titles it is apparent that most of these sermons were prepared and written several days before they were delivered. In the Yom Kippur sermons, the writer repeatedly rouses his audience to note the exile of the Divine Presence and the love G-d has for the Jewish People. In these sermons, he mentions names of Torah scholars who died the previous year, and they include some personal details as well. Before each sermon, the author writes the date, year and place at which the sermon was delivered. The sermons contain many parables.
Before the sermon of Yom Kippur 1841, the author writes: "My sermon for Kol Nidrei 1841 here in Magendorf, containing a few words of eulogy for R. Moshe Teitelbaum Rabbi of Ujhel" (Sátoraljaújhely; R. Moshe Teitelbaum, author of Yismach Moshe, passed away 28th Tammuz 1841). In the middle of the sermon, he writes: "This year we lost the holy and pious Torah scholar, the rabbi of Ujhel R. Moshe Tamar, who was well-known as a great Torah scholar, holy and pious… During his life, his holy spirit and fear of Heaven impacted hundreds and thousands. However, now that he has left this world… the Divine Presence bewails… This great Torah scholar is known to have been close to G-d with his great knowledge of Kabbalah... His soul is like a sacrifice of atonement…".
At the end of his sermon for Yom Kippur 1828, delivered in Szerdahely, he writes: "In the past year we have witnessed much misfortune in our community, with illness and in particular the death of our rabbi (R. Aharon Suditz-Bichler Rabbi of Szerdahely, passed away 4th Av 1828). I also fell ill and thank G-d I recovered…".
In the middle of his sermon for Yom Kippur 1830, delivered in Zsámbék, he writes of the death of "the tzaddik, Rabbi of Komárom, R. Avraham (R. Avraham Freistadt Rabbi of Komárom - Komárno, passed away 7th Av 1830), and several other tzaddikim, and recently the news of the death of… R. Amram Chassida…" (R. Amram Rosenbaum, styled R. Amram Chassida, passed away 16th Cheshvan 1829).
R. Eliezer Lipman Neusatz (1797?-1859), close disciple of the Chatam Sofer from the age of 14, and one of his foremost and cherished disciples. Lived in Szerdahely (it seems from this manuscript that he served there as rabbi for a short while). In 1830, he was appointed rabbi of Zsámbék, and from 1834-1844 served as rabbi of Magendorf. He authored Batzir Eliezer (two parts) on Talmudic topics, Mishbetzet HaPeninim, Mei Menuchot and Be'er Eliezer. In one letter to R. Eliezer, his teacher the Chatam Sofer wrote: "I have found your heart faithful in fear of Heaven and this precedes your wisdom". In the approbation to his book Batzir Eliezer, the Chatam Sofer lavishly praises his disciple and his book.
Most of these sermons have apparently not been printed, with the exception of the sermon for Yom Kippur 1841 with the eulogy for the author of Yismach Moshe, which was printed in Kerem Shlomo, Year 20, Issue 9, pp. 21-25.
