Divrei Geonim, by the holy Gaon Rabbi Chaim leib Kahana of Siget. Most pedigreed copy, with stamps and glosses handwritten by the great Gaon Rabbi Meir David Tabak Rosh Av Beis Din of Siget [the son of Maran the Erech Shai], by the holy Rav Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac of Zutshka and the holy Rav of Nadvorna Chadera. Second edition, Siget 1901.

Sefer Divrei Geonim authored by the great Gaon Rabbi Chaim Sryeh Leib Kahana of Siget and was published for a second time in his lifetime by his sons the Tzaddikim Rabbi Yehuda Kahana and Rabbi Nachman Kahana Av Beis Din of Spinka.

In the copy, the handwritten signature and stamp of the holy Rav of Zutshka, Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac Rosenbaum, with his stamp from the city of Zutshka, Romania. ‘Yitzchak Isaac Rosenbaum Av Beis Din of Zutshka the son of the Tzaddik of Nadvorna’.

In addition, stamps of his brother and son-in-law the holy Admor of Nadvorna Chadera the Tzaddik Rav ‘Asher Rosenbaum the son of the Tzaddik of Nadvorna’.

In this copy also stamps of the famed great Gaon Rabbi Meir David Tabak [1850-1036] the great son of Maran the author of the Erech Shai Rabbi Shlomo Yehuda Tabak, the rav of Kretshnif and eventually his father’s successor as Rosh Av Beis Din of Siget.

Many glosses handwritten by him refer mainly to the Seforim of his father the great Gaon Erech Shai and Teshuras Shai. One of the glosses seems to have been written by the Erech Shai himself.

Some of the text of the last leaf is missing and was completed by hand by one of the Geonim and Tzaddikim who owned the Sefer.

[4] 210 leaves. The title page is restored with tape. Brittle leaves. Good condition.
