Rabbi Shlomo Yosef Zevin [1885-1978] was born in Kazimirov, near Pinsk and learned in the Mir Yeshiva. He was an outstanding Torah scholar who received rabbinical ordination from Rabbi Yosef Rosen [the Rogatchover]. He wrote many Torah books and articles. He was the first editor of the Encyclopedia Talmudist. He outlined its format and even wrote a list of all its entries. He was a member of the Chief Rabbinate and the first president of the "Committee of Chabad Rabbis in the Holy Land'.
Old binding, frayed spine. Fine-very fine condition.
