Frankfurt 1813. Rare! Unidentified Rabbinical signatures and glosses! Rare classic work on Hilchos and Maseches Gittin by R. Yaakov Loberbaum of Lisa. R. Yaakov Loberbaum (1770-1832), was born into well-known Rabbinical family. Orphaned from his father, he studied under R. Yosef Thumim and R. Meshulam Igra. He served as Rav in various communities, most notably Lisa after which he is known. One of the greatest Achronim, he was held in awe by the masses as well as by his rabbinical contemporaries. He was particularly close to R. Akiva Eiger and the Chasam Sofer, and together they fought mightily against the nascent Reform movement. He was a prolific author who wrote on a wide variety of Torah subjects and his seforim, including Chavas Da’as, Nesivos Ha’Mishpat, Nachlas Yaakov, Toras Gittin, Bais Yaakov and many others, are studied in depth across the Torah world.
