Family photo album of the "Holy Shoemaker" Rabbi Moshe Ya'akov Ravikov.
More than 25 varied and fascinating photos of the life of the "Shoemaker":
Photos from his early years (with his wife after their engagement?) and others taken at various times, photos with his wife and daughters and at various family occasions. The photos are placed in their original album.
Rabbi Moshe Ya'akov Ravikov (1873-1967) - the "Holy Shoemaker" from Shabazi Street in Tel Aviv-Jaffa was a hidden tsaddik, kabbalist and wonder-worker. Born in Lithuania, a disciple of Rabbi Shlomo Elyashiv author of Leshem Shvo V'Achlama [the Leshem]. After his Aliya to Eretz Israel, he moved to Jaffa and opened a shoemaking workshop. Although he hid himself and his powers, the generation's leaders and kabbalists recognized his amazing righteousness, cleaved to him and became his disciples. Rabbi Kook's comment to Rabbi Aryeh Levine that the "shoemaker" is one of the 36 hidden tsaddikim of the generation became public. The Chazon Ish encouraged him to reveal himself and shower blessings on the Jewish people. Many stories of wonders and revelations are recounted about the "holy shoemaker" and he was known to merit the revelation of Eliyahu [this was published in the newspapers of that time]. Many flocked to his home every day to receive his blessings and they saw deliverance from their troubles.
18 photos: approx. 8X13 cm. 5 photos: approx. 6X8 cm. 5 small photos: 3X3 cm. A total of 28 photos. Enclosed is a printed picture of the "Shoemaker". Overall good condition. Damages to album.
