Ritva on Baba Metzia- Galanti on Gittin, Baba Kama and Avodah Zarah- Ran on Shavuot. Copy lacking title page.
Signed on the flyleaf by Rabbi Zusman Eliezer Sofer Rabbi of Paks.
The Sefer seemingly was lacking the title at the time and therefore wrote the table of contents.
Also the signature of Rabbi Feivel Plaut Rabbi of Surany. He also signs on page. 9.
Other antique signatures.
Modern later binding, lacking title, printed on quality rag paper.
Otherwise a very good sound copy.
Rabbi Eliezer Zussman Sofer (1828-1902), son of Rabbi Fishel Sofer of Pressburg, Student of the Chasam Sofer and Ksav Sofer as well as of the Maharam Schick.
He was the son-in-law of Rabbi Yoel Sofer of Paks, where Rabbi Eliezer Zussman served as Dayan, Maggid and Rosh Yeshiva. Rabbi of Halas (1857) and successor to his father-in-law in Paks (1886). Active rabbinical leader of Hungarian orthodox Jewry. Author of famous works: Yalkut Eliezer, Hamakneh, Eit Sofer & others.
Rabbi Chizkiyahu Feivel Plaut (1818-1895), was one of the most eminent talmidim of both the Chasam Sofer & the Ksav Sofer. He began studying in Yeshivas Chasam Sofer from a young age where he quickly garnered the respect of the Chasam Sofer himself, who personally looked after his well-being. And for a period served as a maggid shiur in the great Yeshiva of Pressburg.
Rabbi Chizkiya Feivel possessed tremendous admiration for his rabbi as well, and would rise at the mere mention of the Chasam Sofer’s name. Rabbi Chizkiya mentions the Chasam Sofer multiple times throughout his sefer.
In 1849, he was appointed as Rav in the town of Surany. Although he was only 22 at the time of the Chasam Sofer’s passing, he remained bound to his great Rebbe, as reflected in his monumental sefer Likutei Chaver Ben Chaim published over a period of 15 years. Received with great acclaim, it remains a most fundamental sefer, containing a substantial amount of the Chasam Sofer’s Torah.
