Ir Binyamin Sheni Copy that Belonged to two of Rabbi Yisrael of Ruzhin's Grandsons, the Admo"r of Sadigura and of Brody. Signature and Stamp
Ir Binyamin Sheni - commentary on aggadot from the Jerusalem Talmud, Seder Zeraim and Moed, by Binyamin Ze'ev Wolf. Furth, 1722. First edition. Copy that belonged to two grandsons of Rabbi Yisrael of Ruzhin.
The book had belonged to the Admo"r Rabbi Nachum DovBer of Sadigura, who received it as a present from his cousin, the Admo"r Rabbi Chaim David [Dovid'l] of Brody. The title page bears Rabbi Nachum DovBer Friedman of Sadigura's stamp and the 'Minchat Shai' stamp (see below). The flyleaf bears his signature: "This book belongs to Rabbi Nachum DovBer Friedman." Red sticker on the back binding with gilt inscription: "Library of Rabbi Nachum Dov Friedman in Sadigura." Rabbi Chaim David Monzon's stamp is on the title page.
The Admo"r Rabbi Menachem Nachum Dov of Sadigura - Rabbi Nachum Ber'nyu [1843-1883], son of Rabbi Shalom Yosef, firstborn son of Rabbi Yisrael of Ruzhin. Rabbi Nachum Ber'nyu was orphaned at a young age. His father, Rabbi Shalom Yosef, who was appointed his father Rabbi Yisrael of Ruzhin's successor, passed away at a young age, approximately 10 months after his father's passing. Rabbi Nachum Ber'nyu married the daughter of his uncle, Rabbi Avraham Ya'akov - the Elder Admo"r of Sadigura. The Admo"r Rabbi Nachum Ber'nyu owned an especially large library, and he would stamp the books according to their origin. The book before us is stamped "Minchat Shai, " meaning that he received the book as a gift.
The Admo"r Rabbi Chaim David Monzohn [1850-1932] was a son of Rabbi Yosef Monzon, who was a son-in-law of Rabbi Yisrael of Ruzhin. Rabbi Chaim David was a son-in-law of Rabbi Ze'ev of Tuzirian. He served as Admo"r in Russia and then he moved to Galicia and lived in several places, until he moved to Brody, by whose name he is known - as the Admo"r Rabbi Dudel of Brody. (Refer to Alfasi, Encyclopedia L'Chassidut I, 776, Chachmei Galicia III, 746-747.)
