Copy of the Admor the Berach Moshe of Satmar - Nevi'im Trei Assar with the Malbim - Warsaw, 1874

Nevi'im and Ketuvim, volume IX Trei Assar. With Rashi's commentary and Peirush Mikra'ei Kodesh by the Gaon Rabbi Meir Leibush, the Malbim. On the title page, he is titled Shalita - printed in his lifetime - Warsaw, 1874. New fine binding. Many moth perforations. Fair-good overall condition. 


On the title page and on its verso, important stamps: "משה טייטלבוים מ. סיגוט" indicating the copy was owned by the Admor Rabbi Moshe Teitelbaum, the Berach Moshe of Satmar (1915-2006). He was born in Siget, Romania, to his father, the holy Gaon author of the "Atzei Chaim" of Siget, and was a disciple of his uncle, Rabbi Yoel Teitelbaum, the "Diveri Yoel" of Satmar. During the Holocaust, he was sent with his entire family to Auschwitz, where his wife and three children were murdered. After the Holocaust, he returned to Siget and tried to reorganize religious life among the surviving refugees. Fearing the new communist government, he moved to the United States where he founded the synagogue "Atzei Chaim Siget" in his father's memory. After the passing of his uncle, the Admor of Satmar, who had no children, he was appointed his successor and became the Rav of Satmar, a court that is considered the largest Chassidic court in the world.
