Very Rare: Seminar L'Rabbanim B'Itztla Chadashah Compilation - Harry Fischel Institute Controversy


Seminar L'Rabbanim B'Itztla Chadashah - sharp polemic booklet with letters and articles by leaders of Chareidi Jewry opposing Jerusalem's Harry Fischel Institute training rabbis. Jerusalem, 1972. Printed on the title page: [Part] I - but no other parts were printed. To the best of our knowledge, this booklet has never been offered at auction.


The famed letters in the booklet are signed by gedolei hador from all circles uncharacteristically coming out against a Torah institution. The signatories include: the gaon of Tschebin, the gaon of Brisk, the gaon of Pressburg, the gaon Rabbi Yechezkel Abramsky, the Steipler, Rabbi Shach, the Minchat Yitzchak, and more. The booklet also includes articles written by Rabbi Moshe Chaim Sheinfeld and additional writers.


Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief discussion of Machon Harry Fischel.
