Milim L'Eloka - Berlin, 1760 - Signatures of Rabbi Yehuda Leib [Margaliot] of Leslau
Milim L'Eloka, Concordance and Hebrew-German Bible dictionary, "explains every noun and verb and word in the Torah, Nevi'im and Ketuvim. The explanation is in Hebrew and translated into Yiddish [in Hebrew letters]. Shows their source in the Bible". Rabbi Yehuda Leib Minden. Berlin, 1760. First edition.
On the title page are signatures of Rabbi "Moshe ben Rabbi Y. of Leslau". Throughout the book are many signatures of his father "Yehuda Leib of Leslau". On Leaf 119/1 is a handwritten gloss in Rashi script.
Rabbi Yehuda Leib Margaliot (1747-1811) Av Beit Din of Szczebrzeszyn, Leslau and Frankfurt an der Oder, was a famous Torah scholar of his times. He was ordained by the author of the Nodah B'Yehuda. Exchanged letters of responsa with Rabbi Ya'akov of Lisa and with other contemporary Torah scholars. [He had visited the Vilna Gaon. Once he came to Vilna with a large pamphlet of novellae which he had written in answer to a question on the words of the Mordechi in Tractate Shvuot. The Vilna Gaon read all his deep words at a glance and immediately answered him that from the outset no question arose because the words of the Mordechai were written with an error.]. Author of Pri Tevuah responsa, Korban Reshit, Or Olam, Beit Midot, Beit Tefillah, Tal Orot, etc. [These signatures are identical to the handwriting photocopied in the book Ishim B'Tshuvot Chatam Sofer, p. 148, see photocopy].
