Lot 049:
Orech Hayim section, by a student of the Tzemach Tzedek—first edition. 316 pages, very good condition.
Bound with the book Zikaron Yeshayahu in two sections, by Rabbi Zecharya Yeshaya Yallesh of Minsk (Vilna 1882).
“I am occupied and cannot answer…go to Zalman of Poltzk, you can trust him”—that was the Tzemach Tzedek’s answer to someone who approached him with a halachic question. Rabbi Schneur Zalman Fradkin (1830-1902), author of the Torat Chesed, was a known gaon around the Jewish world—his rabbi, the Tzemach Tzedek, defined him as a gaon and would include him in his deliberations about dinei torah. He was also close to the Maharash, and he was one of three geonim crowned by the Admor Maharash. He would receive notes for blessings. At the end of his life he moved to Jerusalem and there he is buried.
