Certificate of Appreciation to Rabbi Chanoch Fisher. Dunaföldvár, Hungary, 1864.
The managers of synagogues and the members of the congregation express their gratitude to "his honor the Chief Rabbi" for leading the congregation for 12 years, during which he served not only as a spiritual shepherd, rabbi and judge, but also established a school (Talmud Torah), dealt with public matters and donations.
Most of the document and signatures are in German. On page 3 an ink-stamp of the Chevra Kadisha and a wax-stamp of the congregation in Dunaföldvár, along with more than 90 signatures of the community members, partly in Hebrew: "Michael Steiner", "Chaim Kroys", "Itzek Kenig" and more. On the first page a colored illustrated frame.
Rabbi Chanoch Henach Fisher (Otzar Harabbanim 6655), first rebbe of the Dunaföldvár community as of the year 1852. Responsum to him concerning the way to write the city's name in divorce certificates found in responsum by Maharia Asad and responses by Riba, who address him using honorable titles. During the years of Congress of representatives of Hungarian Jews (ca. 1865) the community was much shaken until it separated into two communities, Orthodox and Neologist. This document from 1864, is probably an attempt of the Orthodox to keep control in the community, this is also obvious from the phrase "the fire of our religion burns in this heart".
[3] pages, 47.5 cm. Fair-good condition. Torn folds, few stains.
