Chizkuni - Signature and Two Handwritten Glosses by Rebbe Chanoch Henich of Sassov - Rebbe "Who Performed Salvations for the Jewish People"
Chizkuni on the Torah. [Vilna, ca. 1875-1885 - lacking title page].
Copy belonging to Rebbe Chanoch Henich of Sassov. His signature appears in Parashat Yitro (p. [79]): "Chanoch Henich of Sassov", with a scholarly gloss (3 lines) in his handwriting on the previous page (p. 78). On p. 122, another gloss in his handwriting.
Rebbe Chanoch Henich Dov Meier-Teitelbaum (1884-1942), Rabbi of Sassov (Sasiv) and Keretsky, one of the greatest rebbes and tzaddikim of his generation, son-in-law of the Kedushat Yom Tov of Sighet and brother-in-law of Rebbe Yoel Teitelbaum of Satmar. Son of R. Yosef David of Sassov, descendant of Rebbe Chanoch of Alesk - the Lev Same'ach, and a descendant of R. Shalom of Belz. An exceptional, holy and pure Torah scholar, he was renowned for his fervent prayers and the wonders he performed for the Jewish people. In his will, he commanded that his epitaph should contain no attribute apart from the inscription: "Who performed salvations for the Jewish people".
His son, Rebbe Yoel Teitelbaum of Királyháza (Korolevo) and later, the United States, published two volumes of his Torah novellae titled Ir Chanoch (Jerusalem, 1978). Several years later, the books Responsa Yad Chanoch and Mefaneach Ne'elamim (Brooklyn, 2000) were also published. In 1957, a Midrash Rabba with his notes entitled Ein Chanoch, was published in the United States by his son Rebbe Yoel.
