Tzedakah KaMishpat, on the distribution of charity to residents of Eretz Israel, by R. Aharon Leib Neuman. Jerusalem: printer not indicated, [1893; 1888 according to Sh. Halevy].

The book addresses the proper distribution of charity (Halukka) and sharply criticizes the distribution practices of kollels in Jerusalem, particularly the Hungarian Kollel, and calls for people of Eretz Israel and prospective immigrants to make do with less and renounce luxuries.

The author,
R. Aharon Leib Neuman (ca. 1845-1905), son of R. Aharon Anshel Neuman, Rabbi of Vac. R. Aharon Leib immigrated to Eretz Israel in 1863. He was of weak constitution and lived in harsh poverty, but was known as a diligent learner; his calls for justice and economizing are recognizably genuine.

[1], 16 leaves. 18 cm. Dry paper. Overall good condition. Stains. Minute open tear on title page, not affecting text. New binding.

Sh. Halevy, No. 628.

A particularly rare book (recorded in the Bibliography of the Hebrew Book based on a copy of Mossad HaRav Kook; the NLI catalog contains a partial copy lacking the title page and last leaf).

This booklet is documented in the Bibliography of the Hebrew Book (listing 000161103).
