Chassidut, Rare First Edition: 'Torah Mikveh' by the Wondrous Admo"r Rabbi Choneh of Kolashitz. Pedigree Copy


Kuntress Torat Mikveh on the hahachahs of mikva'ot with insights by the Divrei Chaim of Sanz, by the most sacred and wondrous tzaddik, Rabbi Choneh Halberstam of Kolaschitz. Risha, Technadruk Press, 1937. Very rare first edition. Copy that previously belonged to the Admo"r of Susnovtza.


The sefer was written anonymously and published by his son, Rabbi Baruch Halberstam. There are copies with the title page indicating that the sefer was printed by Rabbi David Aryeh Halberstam of Frysztak. Among the scholarly discussions, the author deliberates the words of his grandfather, the Divrei Chaim of Sanz vs the words of the Chatam Sofer with respect to psul zchilah bamikveh.


Notation on the back of the title page attributing the sefer to Rabbi Naftali Tzvi Menachem Ruben Glickman of Sosnowica, later Admo"r of Sosnowica-Koidenov. He was born to his father, the gaon and tzaddik Rabbi Itzikel of Sosnowica, his brother, Rabbi Yehoshua succeeded his father in the rabbinate. After this brother was murdered in the Holocaust, Rabbi Naftali Tzvi was appointed as successor of his brother and grandfather. 


Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of Rabbi Choneh Halberstam of Kolaschitz.
