In the preface of Ohel David that was published after the author’s demise, the Chasam Sofer writes: “This great and holy tzaddik, genius of the world…fortunate are we if we merited his discourses and his light… and may the merit of the tzaddik stand by us to protect us from all evil and to bless the Jewish nation with G-d’s blessing” Rabbi David served as Rabbi of Jamnitz, Frauenkirchen, Szerdahely and finally Nowe Miasto.
