Divrei Emet copy of Rabbi Alter Ze'ev Horowitz of Strizov
Divrei Emet by Rabbi Yaakov Yitzchak from Lublin - Printed in Warsaw by Rabbi Leibush Monk
With the signature of his saint and the stamp of Rabbi Alter Ze'ev Horowitz of Strizov
Rabbi Alter Zeev, the eldest son of the Rebbe Avraham of Shendishov, was the son-in-law of Rabbi Sander Radomishler of Melitz.
After Rabbi Shlomo Shapira left Strizhov to serve as rabbi of Munkatch, the people of the city called on Rabbi Alter Ze'ev to serve as rabbi.
His son Rabbi Chaim Yehuda did not want to run for rabbinate and was a great activist in Reisha. His son Rabbi Klonimus filled his grandfather's place in the rabbinate. Was the son-in-law of his uncle Rabbi Yosef Chaim Frenkel. Was devoted to the Jews of his city. During World War II he fled to Lvov and from there to Russia where he was killed
The Tzadik Rabbi Alter Zev Horowitz
A letter of invitation was sent to Rabbi Alter Zev Horowitz, the great-grandson of the famous Rabbi Naphtali from Ropczyce. He accepted the invitation and peace returned to the community. However, it did not last long.
Suddenly, Rabbi Moshe Leib Shapiro returned to Strzyzow. At his arrival, he was asked by the community leaders for the reason of his return and what his future plans were: “I came back just to live here” he replied. Soon the people who still remembered the greatness of his father and also knew Rabbi Moshe Leib's qualifications, began to urge him to claim back his rabbinical post. And another dispute began brewing between his followers and the followers of Rabbi Alter Zev Horowitz who, meanwhile, had established himself in town and was respected by everyone. Ultimately, it was decided to bring the dispute before a rabbinical court.
Three well-known Rabbis were chosen as judges: The Rabbi from Tarnov, the Rabbi from Rawa-Ruska and the Rabbi from Bergsaz, Hungary. However, their decision was inconclusive – two were in favour of Rabbi Alter Zev and one against. And the dispute lasted for generations.
Rabbi Moshe Leib Shapiro was Rabbi in Sassov before his return to Strzyzow. Even though he never got back his rabbinical post, his devoted admirers supported him materially. When World War I began, Rabbi Moshe Leib moved to Vienna where he passed away during the war.
Rabbi Alter Zev Horowitz passed away in 1930 and his grandson Reb Kalonymus Horowitz inherited the rabbinical post, including the unresolved dispute. Hitler put an end to all the arguments.
