Nearly One Hundred Unpublished Shiurim Written
by Rabbi Chaim Shmuelevitz of Mir
Unpublished Torah lectures handwritten by Rabbi Chaim Shmuelevitz on tractate Bava Metziah. These include twenty
Shiur Klali and another seventy-five chaburos, all delivered between the years 1974–1975, the climax of Rabbi Chaim's rabbinical career.
Rabbi Chaim's lectures were published in sefer Shaarei Chaim and include lectures on tractates gittin, kiddushin, nedarim and chazakas habbatim;
however, to this very day, Rabbi Chaim's lectures on Bava Metzi'ah remain unpublished.
Rabbi Chaim Shmuelevitz (1902 - 1979) was a leading Rosh Yeshiva in the last generation who lit up the world with his brilliant Torah discourses and lectures. He was known from his youth as the "Iluy of Stetchin." He transferred from the Grodna Yeshiva to the Mir in 1924 where he immediately claimed his position among the yeshiva's top crop. In 1929, he married the daughter of his Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi E. Y. Finkel. Rabbi Chaim served at the helm of the yeshiva during its exile in Shanghai and dedicated his life to rebuilding the Torah world following the Holocaust.
