Ropschitz Dynasty

Letter by Harav Naftali Horowitz, Av Beis Din of Rozvadov. 1939

Harav Naftali Horowitz (circa 1890-1942), Av Beis Din of Rozvadov, was a direct descendant and namesake of his ancestor the Admor Harav Naftali of Ropschitz. His father was the pious Harav Efraim of Rozvadov, son and successor of Harav Tzvi Hirsh of Rozvadov, son of Harav Moshe of Rozvadov, who was a son of Harav Eliezer of Djikov and son-in-law of the Yitav Lev. Harav Eliezer of Djikov was the son of the Admor Harav Natali of Ropschitz.

In 1932, the author of the present letter succeeded his father as Rav in Rozvadov, but when the Nazis rose to power, he was sent to the Lvov ghetto where he perished alongside many of his brethren al kiddush Hashem.

This lengthy, handwritten letter was addressed to Harav Avraham Schorr in Jerusalem.

The margin of the letter features the autograph of the
Dayan Harav Yosef Avigdor Rocker, disciple of the Admor Harav Shlomo of Bobov.

Rozvadov, 1939. Page size: 28×22 cm. Good condition.
