Handwritten Autograph by Kabbalist Rabbi Ya'akov Yisrael Algazi
Handwritten sermons in eloquent script by the Kabbalist, the Rishon LeTziyon Rabbi Ya'akov Yisrael Algazi. 18th century. To the best of our knowledge, these sermons have not been printed!
The manuscript consists of sermons in aggadah and covers twelve pages written in very dense Oriental script (chatzi kolmus), yet still very clear. Includes glosses in the margins of the pages, also written by the Rishon LeTziyon.
Rabbi Ya'akov Yisrael Algazi [1680-1756] was one of the rabbis of Izmir and one of the greatest sages and Kabbalists of Jerusalem. He studied at the Beit El yeshivah for Kabbalists and one was of its heads. Among his rabbis were Rabbi Chaim Abulafiah (author of Etz HaChaim) and Rabbi Yitzchak HaCohen Rapoport (author of Batei Kehunah). He served as the rosh yeshivah of the 'Neveh Shalom Brit Avraham' yeshivah where the greatest sages of Jerusalem studied, and was a member of Rabbi Eliezer Nachum's Beit Din. The Chid"a eulogized him. He held the position of Rishon L'Tziyon from 1755 until his passing, and his son, the Mahari"t, succeeded him. He authored many books, including: Shalmei Tzibur, Ne'ot Ya'akov, Ma'aneh Lashon, Emet L'Ya'akov, Ara'a DeRabbanan, Kehilot Ya'akov, Maggid Devarav L'Ya'akov and more.
