Sefer HaEmunah HaTehorah V’HaDat HaHamonit by “a concerned rabbi” – the renowned gaon Rabbi Shmuel Aharon Tamrat, disciple of the gaon Rabbi Chaim Soloveitchik. Odessa, 1912. Only edition. Rare sefer . Several glosses handwritten by the author along the length of the book, some of which do not appear in the table of errata.
This work is a sharp, piercing polemic against the path of ‘frumkeit, ‘ – “the sanctimonious idler” as the author puts it, who sanctifies, according to the author, external customs and minimizes the value of the fundamental Torah laws.
