Unusually beautiful copy of the Gra’s mathematics and geometry book. First Print.
Explanation on the wisdom of geometry and trigonometry as well as engineering theories and algebra. Authored by the great and famed Vilna Gaon. Published from his manuscripts, with elucidations by Rabbi Shmuel Av Beit Din of Luknik.
On the flyleaf at the back of the book appears handwritten ownership listings in beautiful loopy handwriting.
The title page features the stamp of the Hebrew Theological College, (referred to as Skokie Yeshiva or HTC for short) in English letters. On the back page appears this college’s stamp in Hebrew. Includes approbation and lengthy foreword entitled ‘Derech HaPetach’ by Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Slonim, the Gra’s grandson.
“It is most fitting to publicize the Gaon’s wisdom in order that future generations know
that the pious of Israel are truly wise, and they used their wisdom in the service of G-d”.
(From the approbation of Rabbi Avraham Aveli on the book, Ayil Meshulash).
