identificações:

Tochachas Megulah. First edition, Hamburg 1784/Moses Mendelsohn.
Commentary to Koheles authored by R. Mordechai Gumpel Schnaber A.K.A Dr. Professor Levisohn. This work was seemingly written as a response to Mendelsohn “Biur” which appeared the year before, which the author found lacking. R. Schnaber was acquainted with Mendelsohn, as they both studied at the Yeshiva of R. Dovid Frankel in Berlin and thus, was perhaps aware of nuances that may not have been readily apparent. Probably this is the first rabbinical response to Mendelsohn’s works.
R. Mordechai Gumpel Schnaber (died 1797) had the unusual distinction of being qualified as a medical Doctor in addition to being an ordained Rav. He originated from Berlin and was a disciple of R. Dovid Frankel (Korban Ha’Eidah). He later traveled to England and studied medicine, where he distinguished himself as an excellent physician, eventually becoming the personal physician of the Duke of Portland. He was subsequently appointed a Professor of Medicine at the University of Upsala Sweden, where he was closely acquainted with the Swedish king, Gustavus III. This particular sefer has a lengthy dedication to King Gustavus.
