Tractates: Eruvin, Yoma, Gittin, Avodah Zarah, Zevachim and Menachot [six volumes] of Sha”s that belonged to the Admo”r of Toldot Aharon, Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kahn, who inherited them from his grandfather, the Admo”r of Kretchinef-Sighet, Rabbi Moshe Deitch. Lemberg, 1862-1865.
In most of the volumes, there are many signatures in the hand of Rabbi Moshe Deutch of Kretchinef. There is signed testimony from Rabbi Yisrael Chaim Kahn, rabbi of Toldot Aharon Chassidim in Jerusalem, at the beginning of Tractate Gittin, that this Sha”s was studied from and used by his father, the Admo”r of Toldot Aharon, over the course of many years.
The Admo”r Rabbi Moshe Deutch of Kretchinef-Sighet was a son of Rabbi David Nathan Deutch, Av Beit Din of Kretchinef and author of Nefesh David , son-in-law of Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Heller, son of Rabbi Shmuel Heller, rabbi of Safed. Rabbi Moshe was the maternal grandfather of Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kahan, the Admo”r of Toldot Aharon. He served as the Admo”r of Sighet (as heard from the Admo”r of Toldot Aharon).
The Admo”r Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kahn was one of the most prominent Admo”rs and founder of the Toldot Aharon Chassidism. Following the passing of his father-in-law, Rabbi Aharon Roth, known by the moniker ‘Reb Ahraleh, ‘ most of the Chassidim decided to appoint him as the Admo”r’s successor. During his era, the Chassidut flourished and increased very much, and centers of the Chassidut were established in Beit Shemesh and also in New York. He was considered one of the greatest opponents of Zionism, and was known for his sanctity and asceticism.
