Signed Meir ben Breina Rosenthal, Bendin, [1870]. Rabbi Eliyahu Guttmacher [1796-1875], was a gaon and kabbalist, a disciple of Rabbi Akiva Eiger. He served as rabbi of Pleschen and later of Graditz, by which he is known. He practiced kabbalah and thousands flocked to him to receive his blessing. In his final years, he became known as a miracle-worker and was called “Der Graditzer Tzaddik” [- the Tzaddik of Graditz] and served as something of an Admo”r in Germany. Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch Kalischer wrote of him: “The G-dly gaon, Rabbi Eliyahu Guttmacher, whose soul is equal to thousands of souls of Israel, in Torah, and in Chassidism and in kabbalistic wisdom, is a miracle-worker.” The Admo”r of Gur, author of Sefat Emet, also asked him for a blessing. He left behind many books on all parts of the Torah, some of which have been printed. Additional letters to him appear in the Admo”r of Karlin collection in the National Library.
