Autograph: Lecture Notebook of the Leading Rosh Yeshivah, the Gaon Rabbi Shmuel Rozovsky


Complete 40-page kuntress in a lined notebook, handwritten by the mighty gaon Rabbi Shmuel Rozovsky, rosh yeshivah of the famed Ponovezh yeshivah. The notebook includes the gaon Rabbi Shmuel Rozovsky's novellae on Tractates Gittin, Kiddushin and Bava Metzia.


As is known, the gaon Rabbi Shmuel Rozovsky wrote only minimally, and most of his Torah was transcribed for generations in his disciples' notes [refer to his son's foreword to Shiurei Rebbi Shmuel al Masechet Makkot]. Hence the tremendous importance of this manuscript with [40!] pages loaded with Torah novellae in his penmanship, which also gives a glimpse of Reb Shmuel's golden pen and his rare explanatory abilities, like no other in his generation - or even previous generations.


Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of the gaon Rabbi Shmuel Rozovsky.


Complete lined notebook, 40 written pages, 20x15.5 cm. Autograph script with corrections and erasures.

Very fine condition.
