OFEL U’BOCHEN. YERUSHOLAYIM 1889. - OFEL U’BOCHEN. YERUSHOLAYIM 1889.  In 1878, R. Shlomo Ganzfried (author of Kitzur Shulchan Aruch) published his sefer Ohalei Shem on Hilchos Gittin, in which he disputed some Halachic positions of the Divrei Chaim. This created a fierce halachic dispute, with R. Mordechai Eliezer Weber, Rav of Ada publishing an anonymous polemic titled Milchemes Chova in 1882. R. Ganzfried responded with Michseh L’Ohel in 1884, to which R. Weber responded with Ofel U’Bochen. Includes letters from R. Dovid, R. Boruch and R. Aaron Halberstam children of The Divrei Chaim and from R. Shlomo Halberstam of Vishnitza (Bobov) grandson of The Divrei Chaim.  R. Mordechai Eliezer Weber (1822-1892), was a talmid of the Ksav Sofer and the Yerios Shlomo. He was a close Chassid and Talmid of the Divrei Chaim. He served as Rav in various communities, before emmigrating to Yerusholayim in 1875, where he was associated with the MaHaRIL Diskin. HaLevi 637. 4 sides. 31 cm. Tape repairs.
