Handwritten Letter & Kvittel by Harav Shimon Sofer, Av Beis Din of Erlau, to Saba Kaddisha
“I pray that you shall have longevity and good, pleasant days. Please mention me and my family in your prayers for health and a recovery, so that Hakadosh Baruch Hu will safeguard us and spare us from even a morsel of chametz on Pesach… Hakatan Shimon ben Chava Leah ben Harav Hagaon the Ksav Sofer zvtk”l”
Handwritten letter by Harav Shimon Sofer, Av Beis Din of Erlau, to Harav Shlomo Eliezer Alfandri.
The author was nearing the age of eighty when he penned this card to Harav Shlomo Eliezer Alfandri, who was approaching his centennial! The majority of the letter discusses sefarim by the Chasam Sofer that Harav Alfandri requested.
The Admor
Harav Shimon Sofer (1850-1944) was the son of the Ksav Sofer and Rav of Erlau for over sixty years. From his early youth, he was renowned for his exceptional piety and righteousness, leading the Belzer Rebbe to refer to him admiringly as ‘Shimon Hatzaddik.’ He was revered by all his contemporary Hungarian sages, and he was offered rabbinical positions both in Budapest and Ungvar, which he declined in order to continue serving his congregation faithfully in Erlau. He perished in Auschwitz at the age of 95
Erlau, 1929. Handwritten, autographed postcard.
