Seven leaves (fourteen pages), homilies for Shavuot, Purim, Rosh Hashana, Shabbat HaGadol and Parashat HaChodesh, handwritten by Rebbe Tzvi Hirsh Friedman Rabbi of Liska (Olaszliszka). [Liska], 1863-1867.
Seven leaves handwritten by the author, Rebbe Tzvi Hirsh, with his emendations and deletions in the body of the text. Most of these homilies were published after the passing of the author in his book HaYashar VehaTov (Munkacs, 1880), after being edited. These are the original homilies, as they were recorded by the author, with textual variations compared to the printed version (see foreword to Ach Pri Tevuah, by the publisher R. Ze'ev Wolf, grandson of the author, who explains how he edited and corrected the original text, with the consent of his grandfather). Several passages in this manuscript were presumably never published.
[7] leaves (fourteen written pages). 25 cm. Good condition. Stains.
