Two Letters by the Gaon Rabbi Shaul Alter, Rosh Yeshivah of Sefat Emet

Two letters with five halachic responsa handwritten and signed by the great gaon Rabbi Shaul Alter, rosh yeshivah of Sefat Emet.

One letter is a responsum on the laws of orlah [four lines in his handwriting and with his signature] and the second letter refers to the laws of pesachim [six lines in his handwriting and with his signature].

The responsa appear on the letters with the inquiries which were sent detailing the long deliberations in the handwriting of the inquirers.

The gaon Rabbi Shaul Alter [b. 1957] is the second son of the Admor, the author of Pnei Menachem of Gur. He was appointed by his father - after he arose to serve as Admor  of Gur during a gap in 1992 - to take his place at the head of the Sefat Emet yeshivah in Jerusalem. He became renowned for his insightful intelligence, and many listen to his lessons. His students published a series of books called Yalkut Shiurim from his deep Talmudic lessons.

[3] lined leaves [most with the text of the inquiry in the inquirer's handwriting]; very fine condition.
