Chalitzat Kiteia and Chalitzat Simol, by Rabbi Yechiel Yaakov Weinberg, by Rabbi Yosef Yehoshua Apfel. London, [1955]. With a letter on the matter, in the hand of Rabbi Apfel to Rabbi Z. H. Ferber. 41 pages, printed jacket title page, 21.5 cm.
Halachic discussion regarding chalitza. The Leeds Beit Din grappled with a practical situation in regards to Chalitza. Rabbi Apfel was the dayan in the beit din, and presented the question to Rabbi Yechiel Yaakov Weinberg [known as the Sridei Eish], who expressed his opinion and requested that the question be presented to leading Torah personalities. This booklet features the responses he received.
Along with a handwritten letter from Rabbi Apfel that was sent to Rabbi Zvi Hirsh Ferber, leader of English Jewry. He writes that, as per the instructions of Rabbi Weinberg, he is sending the booklet he wrote so that he could receive Rabbi Ferber’s honorable opinion on the matter.
Very fine-excellent condition.
