Beautiful Letter of Approbation [Only One in the World?] Handwritten by the Gaon Rabbi Nachum Partzovitz, Rosh Yeshivah of Mir


Exceptionally rare ktav semichah, entirely [17 lines] handwritten and signed by the geon hageonim, Rabbi Nachum Partzovitz, rosh yeshivah of Mir. Jerusalem, 1974. Letters granting rabbinic ordination by Rabbi Nachum are unheard-of; this may be the only one in the world!


The rosh yeshivah writes about the toil in Torah by one of the students in the yeshivah, the depth of his understanding, and his broad knowledge. He adds that he has also merited determining halachahs. As such, he is granting him Yadin Yadin semichah. He then blesses the congregation that selects him to lead them.


Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of the gaon Rabbi Nachum Partzovitz.


[1] lined leaf. Approximately 15x19 cm. Entirely in his hand and with his signature.

Fine condition. Filing perforations. Fold marks. Tear without lack in the margins of the fold.
