The Holy Gaon Rabbi Moshe Greenwald author of ‘Arugat Habosem’, 1853-1910, was from the great Poskim and Rabbanim of Hungary, a revered disciple of the Ketav Sofer of Pressburg and disciples of the great Holy students of the Chasam Sofer Rabbi Menachem Katz and his grandfather Rabbi Yosef Greenwald. From his youth he attached to Chassidut, he traveled to Admorim of Belz and Shinova. He was Rav in the communities Humenné and Kisvárda (Kleinwardein) until he became Rabbi and leader in the large city of Chust, where many great Rabbanim of Hungary served there, prominently the MaHaRam Shik. In his days the Yeshivat Chust evolved into a great and important Yeshiva in Hungary, many from all over the world as well as from the United States came to join and grow in Torah and Fear of Heaven from him.
His son HaGaon Rabbi Yekusial Yehuda Greenwald was abd of Yoroh, learned Torah from his father and likewise learned in his father’s Yeshiva. All his life he wrote and spread his father’s sefarim and had them published. His sefarim and Will were published in the sefer ‘Zichron Av’.
