Lengthy letter by the Gaon Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Harlap to Rabbi Eliyahu Nachum Porush praising his composition ["HaChakla’us BaTalmud"]. [Jerusalem]. (1915).
"Your actions and energy are wonderous. G-d gave you wisdom and a big heart to review all this straightforwardly and comprehensively so that nothing will be missing … and good and holy will be the dear lives of the honorable farmers if when they plant, they recall and return to their years of spring in the Talmud and Midrashim of our Sages". Lengthy, enthusiastic letter by Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Harlap praising the profound, orderly and comprehensive composition of Rabbi Eliyahu Nachum Porush on agriculture.
[6] pp. 20 cm. Handwritten and signed by Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Harlap, who describes at length the virtue of the composition by Rabbi Eliyahu Nachum and blesses him that he merit to puplish his composition soon. This letter was apparently not published.
The Tzaddik Gaon Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Harlap (1882-1951) – the Rav of Sha’arei Chessed. Was born to his father Rabbi Zevulun who was a Dayan at the Beis Din of the Maharil Diskin and to his mother Mrs. Miriam. He was educated at the Etz Chaim Talmud Torah and studied Torah with his father and with Rabbi Yehoshua Zvi Michel Shapiro (a Tzaddik Kabbalist of Jerusalem). In 1904, influenced by his friend the Gaon Rabbi Zvi Pesach Frank, he met with Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Hacohen Kook, who had just immigrated to Eretz Yisroel and became his leading disciple. In 1914, he joined Rabbi Kook and additional rabbis in a journey of revival to the settlements of the Galilee in order to bring their residents closer to the Torah. After Rabbi Kook’s passing in 1935, Rabbi Harlap was appointed Rosh Yeshiva of the Merkaz HaRav Yeshiva, which Rabbi Kook had headed until his passing.
Rabbi Eliyahu ben Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Nachum Porush [Glickman] (1892-1956), Mashgiach at the Etz Chaim Talmud Torah and author of textbooks for its students. Was an activist of the old Yishuv of Jerusalem who assisted Shemita-observing farmers and served as the chairman of the management of the Edah Chareidis. His composition "HaChaklaut BaTalmud" (Agriculture in the Talmud), which gathered all the Ma’amarim of the Sages about agriculture, was brought, during World War I, to rabbis, researchers, writers and experienced farmers to be studied and was published after the war, in 1919.
