Large manuscript, over 300 leaves. Elucidations on the weekly Torah portions by Rabbi Moshe Friediger, head of the Budapest community for about 25 years.
Rabbi Moshe Friediger [1818-1897] was both scholarly and wealthy. He was a son of Rabbi Pinchas Leib Friediger, Ra’ava”d of Old Oiben. He was ordained to the rabbinate at the age of 18. After his wedding, his wealth and prominence greatly increased and he was among the first Jews – and the very first Chareidi Jew – to achieve a title of nobility, awarded by local royalty. He carried the burden of the people of Budapest and his net was cast across the entire country. [ Chachmai Hungariah 362-363].
After his passing, his sons printed his magnum opus, Moshe Yedaber , in two parts (Budapest 1927-1929) according to this manuscript.
