Sefer Torat Kohanim, Shulchan Aruch Choshen Mishpat, with commentary of the Vilna Gaon. Sections I and II. Königsberg, [1855]. First edition of the commentary of the Vilna Gaon on Choshen Mishpat.
On both title pages are dedications from R. Shmuel Salant to his son-in-law R. Chaim Hirshberg. The dedications are written by a scribe and signed with various stamps of R. Shmuel Salant, including a stamp in the form of R. Shmuel's signature [the dedications were written when R. Salant was about 80 years old. Due to the weakness of his hands, all his correspondence was written by scribes, and he signed his letters with a stamp in the form of his signature].
The famed R. Shmuel Salant (1816-1909) was born in Lithuania and studied in his youth in Salant, (Salantai), where he befriended the great R. Yisrael Salanter, founder of the Mussar Movement. After his marriage to the daughter of R. Yosef Zundel of Salant, he moved to Eretz Israel in 1841, and served as rabbi of the "Perushim" (students of the Vilna Gaon) community in Jerusalem. He served in the Jerusalem rabbinate for almost seventy years, established schools, relief organizations, and a beit din, and in general was instrumental in the firm establishment of the Ashkenazic community in the city. He was known for his brilliance in Halachic decisorship as well as his practical cleverness in community affairs, both in Jerusalem and around the world.
His daughter Rivka was widowed of her husband, R. Shlomo David Rosenthal, in 1893. Sometime after 1895 she married R. Chaim Hirshberg, a Torah scholar who served as a shochet (ritual slaughterer). His Torah novellae are mentioned in Responsa Ohel Moshe and Sefer Mikra'ei Kodesh. See enclosed material.
Section II contains the signature of R. Eliezer Goldschmidt (1909-1992), one of the great dayanim of Eretz Israel, author of "Ezer Mishpat". Several short glosses in his handwriting.
Two volumes: [1], 2-6, 332 leaves; [1], 242, 8, 9 leaves. 37.5 cm. Good-fair condition. Detached leaves and gatherings. Torn binding; missing spine.
Vinograd - Otzar Sifrei HaGra 756. Missing the added illustrated half-title pages that are not found in all copies.

Sefer Gur Aryeh Yehuda, Tamudic novellae by Yehuda Aryeh Leib, son of R. Menachem Ziemba. Warsaw, 1928.
The flyleaf contains a dedication, handwritten and signed by R. Menachem Ziemba to R. Yosef Rosen, the Rogachover Gaon: "My Beloved, the leader and pride of Israel, R. Yosef Rosen, please accept this volume written by my deceased son, and please send to me your book Hashmatot II that has been newly printed. Menachem Ziemba, Warsaw 4, Brakova 34, Poland."
R. Menachem Ziemba (1883-1943) was among the heads of the Moetzet Gedolei Hatorah and a member of the Warsaw Vaad Harabbanim. He was a prolific author and famed for his brilliance as well as humility. He was killed on Pesach, 1943, during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. His works include Zera Avraham, Totza'ot Chaim, and others, although most of his writings were lost during the war.
Regarding the mutual respect and friendship between the Rogachover and R. Menachem Ziemba see: The Life and Works of R. Menachem Ziemba, S. Rothstein, Tel Aviv, 1948, pp. 29-32. The Rogachover was known for his caustic and acerbic wit, and showed little regard for many of those who came to discuss Torah matters with him. He was impressed, however, by a Talmudic question posed to him by the young Menachem Ziemba, commenting to his followers "The Polish one knows what he is talking about!". The Talmudic discussion between the two lasted for several hours, and a lasting friendship developed. Due to the distance between their respective cities, the relationship was maintained through letters, and the two did not meet again for several decades. They next met in 1936, when the Rogachover passed through Warsaw on his way to Vienna for medical treatment. When R. Ziemba entered the room, the Rogachover immediately greeted him, "I have the answer to the question!", despite the passage of three decades since their last meeting.
[8], 176, [8] pages, 30 cm. Brittle, fragile paper. Good-fair condition. Many pages and gatherings are detached or loose. Original binding; worn and partially detached.

Sefer Raziel Hamalach - "This is the book of Adam given to him by the angel Raziel" - Kabbalistic content and holy names. "Segula to have intelligent children, success and blessing, and to prevent fire from overtaking his home…". Lemberg (Lviv), 1865.
Many stamps of R. "Yechezkel Levenstein - Yeshivat Mir - Menahel Ruchani"; "Yechezkel Levenstein - Yeshivat Ponevezh - Menahel Ruchani".
R. Yechezkel Levenstein (1885-1974) was one of the great leaders of the mussar (ethical) movement. He was a student in the Kelm Talmud Torah and Menahel Ruchani (principal) of the Mir Yeshiva in Poland, Shanghai and Jerusalem. After the passing of R. Eliyahu Dessler he was appointed Menahel Ruchani of Yeshivat Ponevezh in Bnei Brak. He was a holy and righteous man who was known for his connection to G-d and his abstention from the pleasures of this world (for example, he was never seen to lean back in his seat). The effectiveness of his blessings was well known. During the Holocaust, when the Mir Yeshiva travelled to Vilna and Russia and to the Far East, his students saw that he clearly received Heavenly guidance, and his decisions and blessings were channeled through a Heavenly source. He was a great Kabbalistic scholar, but he hid this knowledge and would deliver only ethical discourses in public, so that many people assumed that he had no Kabbalistic knowledge. Several books were published based on his discourses: "Ohr Yechezkel", "Imrei Yechezkel", "Avodat Yechezkel" and others.
[33] leaves. 25 cm. Good quality thin paper. Fair condition. Stains and wear, signs of extensive use. Worming on the text. Binding slightly worn.
