Proclamation "Gzerat Irin" - Jerusalem, 1889
Proclamation "Gzerat Irin - Ruling of Early and Late Sages", Jerusalem, [1889].
The proclamation contains a ban, made by Rabbi Chaim of Volozhin, Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berdichev, Rabbi Akiva Eiger and more, against using money from the Rabbi Meir Ba'al HaNess Charity Fund for purposes other than their original purpose – supporting the settlers of the Holy Land. The bottom contains Rabbi Shmuel Salant's agreement to the ban, and there he adds that Rabbi Chaim of Volozhin also expressed his support of the ban two weeks before his passing.
Single leaf, [2] pages, 23.5x39 cm. Very good condition. Slight tears to edges; small hole.
Does not appear in S. HaLevi.
