On the verso of the title page is the above-mentioned stamp of the holy Rebbi, the Imrei Emes of Gur.
The holy Rebbi Avraham Mordechai Alter (1866–1948), the third Rebbe of the Gur dynasty, was the son of the Sefat Emet. He was a scholar and holy man, founder of Agudath Israel, and a leading figure in ultra-Orthodox Judaism before the Holocaust. He was the rebbi of tens of thousands of Gur Chassidim in Poland. Most of his followers and many of his descendants perished during the Holocaust, but the Rebbe survived miraculously and ascended to Jerusalem, where he re-established the Gur Chassidus and its yeshivot. His surviving sons were the Rebbes: the Beit Yisrael, the Lev Simcha, and the Pnei Menachem. He is known as the Imrei Emes, named after his sefer of the same name.
