Description
Letter of protest against a man who humiliated "the great R. Lipman David" [Shubkes, head of the Chassidic Beit Din] "with tremendous audacity and insolence". The letter is signed by R. "Yosef Yehuda ben R. D. Halevi" (Strassburg, the dayan from Kossov); R. "Avraham Eliezer Mintzberg"; R. "Avraham ben R. David Hakohen" (son-in-law of R. Akiva Yosef Shlesinger), and R. "David Tzvi Shlomo Biderman". Jerusalem, 1903.
R. David Tzvi Shlomo Biderman (1844-1918), the Rebbe of Lelov, son of R. Elazer Menachem Mendel (1827-1883), was the leader of the Chassidic community of Jerusalem. He was a prominent Chassid of the Beit Aharon of Karlin. He was known for his great purity and holiness, and was referred to by the Yismach Yisrael of Aleksander a "Sefer Torah". R. Chaim Shmuel of Chęciny stated that for many years R. Biderman was the greatest tzaddik of his times.
