Letter of request signed by the author of the Da’at Sofer of Pressburg, the holy Gaon Rabbi Akiva Sofer Gaon Av Beis Din of Pressburg, for one of the Gedolei Torah. Jerusalem, 1946.
In the letter, which was sent to the center of Agudas Yisroel, the Da’as Sofer asks that they confirm with an official document that the great Gaon Rabbi Yehoshua Mordechai Feigenbaum is Gaon Av Beis Din and Ram of Sobrantz and its Rosh Yeshiva and now serves as Ram of the Pressburg yeshiva.
The great Gaon Rabbi Akiva Sofer of Pressburg (1878-1959) Gaon Av Beis Din of Pressburg, author of the Da’at Sofer, one of the greatest rabbis and leaders of his generation. The great-grandson of Maran the Chasam Sofer and the successor of his ancestors the Kesav Sofer and the Sheves Sofer in leading the community and heading the Yeshiva of Pressburg. He served as the president of the Orthodox communities of Hungary. He immigrated to Eretz Yisroel shortly before the outbreak of World War II, reestablished the Pressburg Yeshiva in Jerusalem, and was appointed to serve as a member of Moetzet Gedolei HaTorah.
[1] official stationery of the Sheves Sofer Yeshiva of Pressburg in Jerusalem. The handwritten signature of Rabbi Akiva Sofer and the Yeshiva’s stamp. Torn filing perforations, slightly affecting the text. Good-very good condition.
