Letter of Endorsement by Rabbi Shmuel Zalman Weinberger, Av Beis Din of Margaretten
Letter of endorsement handwritten, signed and sealed by Rabbi Shmuel Zalman Weinberger of Margaretten on Kovetz Mefarshei HaTorah which was edited by his disciple, Rabbi Tzvi Moskowitz of Margaretten.
Rabbi Shmuel Zalman Weinberger (1863 - 1934) was a son and disciple of his father, Rabbi Yehoshua Aharon Tzvi (Mahariatz), and learned as well by the Shevet Sofer and Rabbi David Neiman of Pressburg. He succeeded his father's position as Rabbi of Margaretten where he sustained a large yeshiva as well. In his eulogy, Rabbi Yehuda Rosner, Av Beis Din of Szekelyhid said about him: "…He did not sleep in a bed between Shabbos to Shabbos, only a temporary nap in his chair." He was the father-in-law of the Maharam Brisk, Av Beis Din of Tășnad and was succeeded by his son, Rabbi Mordechai Ezriel.
Dated Margaretten, 1933.
