<b>The Holy Gaon Rabbi Aryeh Leibush Segal Horowitz, Av Beit Din of Stanislav, author of "Pnei Aryeh."</b>
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
He was born in 1755 to his father, the Holy Gaon Rabbi Elazar HaLevi Horowitz, Rabbi of Tcherashitz and Zalozhitz, son of the Holy Gaon Rabbi Yitzchak HaLevi Horowitz, Av Beit Din of the Kehillot Ahu" (Altona, Hamburg, Wandsbek), known as Rabbi Itzikel Hamburger zt"l, and son-in-law of Rabbi Yissachar, Av Beit Din of Yartshov, who was the son-in-law of the Holy Gaon Rabbi Shaul of Amsterdam, author of "Binyan Ariel" (who was also his grandfather, father-in-law of Rabbi Elazar mentioned above). At the age of five, he had the privilege of meeting his grandfather, the Holy Gaon Rabbi Itzikel Hamburger, who tested him on his studies and, upon seeing that he knew the Five Books of Moses with the Targum Onkelos by heart, declared that it was assured he would become a teacher of Torah in Israel.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
He initially studied with his father, Rabbi Elazar, and later learned in the yeshiva of the renowned Gaon of his generation, Rabbi Yitzchak Charif, Av Beit Din of Sambor, where he was one of the leading students. He also studied under his uncle (who was the son-in-law of his grandfather, the Holy Gaon Rabbi Itzikel Hamburger), Rabbi Meshulam Igra, Av Beit Din of Tismenitz, who ordained him as a rabbi at the age of twenty. In 1780, at the young age of 24, he was appointed by the great authority of the generation, the "Chavat Daat, " as Av Beit Din of Stanislav, where he served as rabbi for 63 years until his passing.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
His innovations and rulings were spread among the greats of the land, including the Chavat Daat by Rabbi Yaakov of Lissa, the Shoel U'Meshiv by the Gaon Rabbi Yosef Shaul Nathanson, Avnei Tzedek by the Gaon, the Yitav Lev, Neta Sha'ashuim Da'at Torah by the Gaon the Maharsham of Berezhany, Beit Ephraim by the Gaon Rabbi Ephraim Zalman Margaliot of Brody, Yeshuot Yaakov by the Gaon Rabbi Yaakov Meshulam Ornstein, in the books of the Gaon Rabbi Shlomo Kluger, and with the Gaon Rabbi Zvi Hirsch Krau of Butchatch zt"l. He was also known as a miracle worker, as mentioned in the introduction to the book "Bar Levi" by his son, the Gaon Rabbi Meshulam Yissachar.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
His standing was among the greats of the generation, and he visited the Gaon of Vilna, who held him in great esteem. He was also revered and honored by the Rebbes of the Hasidic movement, including the Holy Rabbi Baruch of Medzhybizh, who visited Rabbi Aryeh Leibush and knew that Rabbi Aryeh was stringent not to eat rice. He instructed his servant to remove the rice pudding from the table out of respect for Rabbi Aryeh. The Holy Chozeh of Lublin, who hosted Rabbi Aryeh Leibush for the Sabbath, before Kabbalat Shabbat, bowed his head before Rabbi Aryeh, saying, "Rabbi, bless me." He also visited the Holy Rebbi Meir of Premishlan, who sent Jews to Rabbi Aryeh to receive blessings for salvation and mercy. His approbation also appears on the holy sefer "Atarah Tzvi" by the Gaon Rebbi Zvi Hirsch of Zhidachov.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
At the end of his life, in the summer of 1843, he moved to live in Tismenitz and passed away there on the 29th of Kislev 1844. There is a tradition that at the time of his passing, a "pillar of fire" was seen, which only one or two in a generation merit. He was buried in Tismenitz. In his will, he instructed that "no stranger should sit on his chair, " except for his descendants. Indeed, from 1847, his son, Rabbi Meshulam Yissachar Horowitz, succeeded him as Rabbi of Stanislav. His sefer on the Torah, "Pnei Aryeh, " was published in Przemyśl in 1874, with glosses titled "Atarah Zekeinim" by his grandson Rabbi Elazar HaLevi Ish Horowitz, Av Beit Din of Rahatin. Some of his responsa were published under the title "Shu"t Pnei Aryeh" at the beginning of the "Bar Levi" responsa by his son, Rabbi Meshulam Yissachar.

He was born in 1805 to his father, the Holy Gaon Rabbi Aryeh Leibush Horowitz (the first), Rabbi of Stanislav. At a young age, he married the daughter of Rabbi Zvi Hirsch Mendelsburg, who was the son-in-law of the Holy Gaon Rabbi Meshulam Igra, Av Beit Din of Tismenitz and Pressburg. After his marriage, he secluded himself for a time in the old study hall in Tismenitz, where he studied with several students. At the age of 18, he received rabbinic ordination from his father, who testified that he would grow to be like Rabbi Yonatan. He also received ordination from the Holy Gaon Rabbi Yaakov of Lissa, author of "Chavat Daat." In 1825, he was appointed Av Beit Din of Zalozhitz, where he served for about fifteen years. In 1840, his father requested him to come to Stan
</div>
<div>
islav to be with him. After his father's passing, he was appointed as his successor as the Av Beit Din of Stanislav. His position was very prestigious in Galicia, especially due to the prominence of his family lineage. At the age of 36, he was already recognized as one of the greats of Galicia, and many came to his yeshiva in Stanislav to learn Torah and fear of Heaven from him.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
In 1853, his sefer "Bar Levi" was published in Przemyśl, a responsa on the four sections of the Shulchan Aruch, with notes from his father titled "Pnei Aryeh." The sefer includes his correspondence with the greats of his generation, including Rabbi Shmuel Av Beit Din of Tislavitz, the Shoel U'Meshiv, Rabbi Yaakov of Lissa, the Avnei Tzedek, the Maharsham, and many others. On the title page, Rabbi Meshulam notes that he had another manuscript ready for publication. His son, Rabbi Aryeh Leibush Ish Horowitz (the second), Av Beit Din of Zaloshitz, published his grandfather's book, "Pnei Aryeh, " and added his father's responsa at the beginning of the sefer, titled "Shu"t Bar Levi." He also published the sefer "Atarah Tzvi" by the Holy Rebbi Zvi Hirsch of Zhidachov.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
Rabbi Meshulam passed away on the 13th of Elul 1861 and was buried in the holy city of Stanislav. His son, Rabbi Aryeh Leibush Ish Horowitz (the second), succeeded him as Rabbi of Zalozhitz.

Mordechai 1559
</div>
<div>
<b> with Handwritten Glosses by Rabbi Tzvi Hersh Schor </b>

<div>
<b> Talmid of the Rama and Rebbi of the Bach. </b>

</div>
<div>
The Mordechai (Riva di Trento, 1559) on Masechtos Brachos, Bava Kama, Bava Metziah, Ksubos and Chullin with hundreds of handwritten comments and annotations from the Rama and his talmidim.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Among them are hagahos and chiddushim handwritten by Rabbi Tzvi Hersh Schor, one of the great disciples of the Rama, Rebbi of the Bach, father of the author of ‘Toras Chaim’ and grandfather of the Tevuos Schor and Beis Efraim.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<b>The leaves of this valuable manuscript encompass unknown hagahos from the Rama that are not included in the Rama’s hagahos on the 'Mordechai', found here for the first time.</b>
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Also includes important variations and corrections in the Mordechai’s text written by the talmidim of the Rama based on very old handwritten manuscripts of his sefer.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
***
</div>
<div>
The Mordechai by Rabbeinu Mordechai ben Rabbi Hillel is a treasure trove of halachah and primary source of halachic rulings, teshuvos and commentary by the Rishonim of Ashkenaz. Many of the rulings found in the Rama and Shulchan Aruch are based on the 'Mordechai', which was one of the most widely studied sefarim in Polish yeshivos. Gedolei Torah throughout the generations, among them our nation’s foremost luminaries such as the Maharshal, Rama, Shla”h Hakadosh, Bach, Sma and others, authored extensive commentary and explanations upon the 'Mordechai'.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
In his yeshivah in Cracow, the Rama delivered a regular shiur on the 'Mordechai' and engaged extensively in explaining and correcting its teachings and text. There are no less than 16 teshuvos in ‘Shu”t HaRama’ devoted to analyzing the Mordechai’s rulings and clarifying the proper text and meaning of obscure sections in his writings.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Numerous copies of the Rama’s comments on the 'Mordechai' were disseminated among his talmidim during the Rama’s lifetime. Gedolei Hador of the era eagerly sought to obtain copies as well (see Shu”t Rama Ch. 67).
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
In many instances the Rama’s talmid who authored ‘Chiddushei Anshei Shem’ attributes chiddushim he includes to the “Mordechai de’Rama”. Over the years, many of the Rama’s talmidim added their own comments, notes and explanations to the Rama’s glosses. However, foremost amongst those who engaged in the teachings of the 'Mordechai in' the yeshiva of the Rama, was the renowned Rabbi Hirsch Schor, and most of the teshuvos addressing the words of the 'Mordechai' in the Rama's responsa are directed to him.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<b>Handwritten Chiddushim and Comments by Rabbi Hersh Schor in the Present Manuscript </b>
</div>
<div>
The present copy of the 'Mordechai' is an authentic version originating directly from the Rama’s beis medrash in Cracow, as is presented below.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
However, its main significance and uniqueness lie in the fact that it contains glosses and innovations written directly in the sacred handwriting of Rabbi Hirsch Schor, one of the great disciples of the Rama, who, as mentioned, engaged extensively with the Mordechai and its glosses.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Scholars have long presumed that the glosses printed as “Hagahos HaRama” on the 'Mordechai' were actually the work of Rabbi Hersh Schor, and this copy now proves it beyond a shadow of doubt. The sefer clearly identifies Rabbi Hersh Schor as the author of these glosses, indicating that he was the one to originally inscribe the other hagahos, as well.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Leaf 49a in the sefer reveals a lengthy annotation in which the writer challenges the Beis Yosef’s and writes: “V’ani hahedyot, I, the humble one, say that his words are perplexing…Therefore I assert that his words are nothing but bewildering.”
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
The content of this gloss appears almost verbatim in Rabbi Hersh Schor’s question to the Rama, which is printed in 'Shu”t Rama' 95:3. Both the content and tone are virtually identical, although the Rama omits the words emphasized above.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
The appearance of the aforementioned lines in our sefer demonstrates without a doubt that the writer of this gloss is Rabbi Hersh himself (!) (as opposed to a comment copied merely from Shu”t HaRama.)
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Indeed, it has already been noted that the phrase “V’ani hahedyot" which appears in the note above, is a common expression used by Rabbi Hirsch Shor.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
The printed edition of 'Hagahos Rama' likewise includes sections that a talmid wrote in the name of the Rama, and it is known that this talmid was none other than Rabbi Hersh Schor. This can be seen in the comment on the 'Mordechai' at the end of Maseches Brachos in which the words of the Rama were mentioned first, followed by the words of the talmid, who is Rabbi Hersh Schor: “This is what my master taught me... and then I found in the Tosfos…” This comment appears almost letter for letter in the present copy (leaf 7b).
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
Many glosses in the sefer which include discussions on the words of the 'Mordechai', are written in the same handwriting, and by the style of the script, it is possible to identify many of the corrections in the book and to determine that Rabbi Hirsch Shor authored and wrote them.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<b>Rabbi Naftali Tzvi Hersh Schor</b> (d. circa 1587) was the patriarch of the illustrious Schor family in Poland. He was born and raised in Alsace, and is often referred to as Rabbi Hersh Alsacer. In his youth, he relocated together with his family to Poland, where he was privileged to draw Torah and wisdom from the Rama and learn in his Beis Medrash. As one of the Rama’s most brilliant talmidim, he was sought out as a son-in-law by the Rama’s brother-in-law, Rabbi Yisrael ben Rabbi Shalom Shachna of Lublin.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
After his marriage, Rabbi Hersh returned to his native Germany for a period of time, and upon his return to Poland, was greeted by the Rama with the message, “Blessed are you upon your return, my beloved, my colleague, a champion in svaros and bekius…Moreinu Harav R’ Hersh Schor. I was delighted to hear of your peaceful return, despite your having said that you would remain in Germany to be their Rav and teacher…” Numerous teshuvos printed in 'Shu”t Rama' addressed to Rav Hersh refer to him as “my colleague, my student and my friend, ” and shower him with numerous accolades and honorable titles.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
At the Rama’s recommendation, Rabbi Hersh was appointed Rav of the city in Brisk in Lithuania. He later settled in Lublin, where he founded a Beis Medrash and yeshivah and cultivated many exceptional talmidim, among them Torah luminaries such as the Bach. Whether pertaining to halachah, kabbalah or custom, the Bach always referred to Rabbi Hersh with the title of “mori, my master.”
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Rabbi Hersh raised illustrious children, all Talmidei Chachamim and Gedolei Torah, among them Rabbi Avraham Chaim Schor, author of 'Tzon Kodoshim' and 'Toras Chaim', and Rabbi Zalman Schor, author of 'Tevuos Schor' (the first). His descendants include the Rabbanim and geonim Rabbi Alexander Sender author of 'Tevuos Schor'; Rabbi Efraim Zalman Margalios, author of 'Beis Efraim'; and the author of 'Ateres Zekenim'.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<b>The Rama and Rabbi Hersh Schor’s Hagahos on the 'Mordechai'</b>
</div>
<div>
Several of Rabbi Hersh Schor’s hagahos on the 'Mordechai' were printed under his name in the Talmud Bavli, Lemberg Edition (1860-1867) as stated on the title page, “The Sefer 'Mordechai' is edited based on the comments of the geonim Moreinu Harav Hersh Schor, Rav of the Bach, and Moreinu Harav Yisrael z”l ben [the renowned] Hagaon Moreinu Harav Shachna z”l.” (These comments were subsequently reprinted in the Vilna Shas under the title “Hagahos Hageonim”.)
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Previously, the Rama’s hagahos on the 'Mordechai' in Shas appeared in the Zhitomir Edition (1858). Irrefutable evidence proves that these hagahos were not actually written by the Rama but merely derived from his teachings, and that many are the original glosses of his talmid Rabbi Hersh Schor. The copy of the sefer 'Mordechai' from which the Zhitomir edition copied and published the “Hagahos of the Rama”, is presently part of a private collection; and all the annotations found on that copy have already been printed.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<b>New Hagahos by the Rama and His Disciples in the Present Copy </b>
</div>
<div>
There is no doubt that the present copy was sourced in the Rama’s Beis Medrash. The vast majority of glosses that were printed are ascribed to the Rama, whom the writer describes as “mori sh”n (sheyichye netzach)”, with one annotation actually bearing the initials of Rama (see leaf 131a “מ"א—Moshe Isserles…annotation in the old Mordechai.”)
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Additionally, other annotations reference additional handwritten manuscripts of the 'Mordechai' such as מ"י (Mordechai yashan, old Mordechai), ס"א—(sefarim acheirim, other works) and מ"א (Mordechai aroch, long Mordechai) which were available in the Rama’s Beis Medrash.
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
As opposed to other copies of the 'Mordechai' that do not contain new, unprinted glosses, the present copy contains many hagahos that have never yet been printed, including complete unknown passages from the pages of the 'Mordechai Yashan'. It is quite possible that the present work is the sole testimony to this text and to a legacy of the Rama that has never yet been published (see leaf 48a: “I heard from my master…”)
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
This work also serves as an important reference that can be used to check and correct glosses that were misprinted over the years.
