Handwritten Kuntres – Innovations by the Gaon Rabbi Shmuel Hillman Av Beis Din of Metz – written in his lifetime – not published – Metz, before 1765

This is a Kuntres of 16 pp. with innovations by the famed Gaon Rabbi Shmuel Hillman Av Beis Din of Metz on some Parashiyot and the Moadim. The style of the Kuntres is Drush and Pilpul. It was written by one of the disciples in his Rav’s lifetime. 

Written in the headings appearing in the Kuntres:  "מהגאון הגדול המפורסים מהו"ר שמואל הילמן אב"ד דק"ק מיץ"; "לפ’ בראשית ושייך לפסח מהגאון הגדול אב"ד נר"ו ק"ק מיץ"; "לפ’ וירא ושייך לבר מצוה ושייך לר"ה מהגאון הגדול שמואל הילמאן אב"ד מק"ק מיץ".


One of the leaves introduces an innovation in the name of the Gaon Av Beis Din Rabbi David Oppenheim. 


The famed Gaon Rabbi Shmuel Hillman (passed away in 1765) served as Rav of Krezmir and Menheim. In 1751 was appointed the Rav of Metz, by the recommendation of Rabbi Yonason Eibschitz, the previous Rav of Metz. Rabbi Hillman held the position of Rav of Metz for 15 years, until his passing (was succeeded by the Sha’agas Aryeh).
