Collection of Letters and Documents from the Family Archive of Rabbi Meshulam Zalman Neumark, Rabbi of Starodub (Follower of the Tzemach Tzedek)
Three letters and documents from the Neumark family archive (a Chabad rabbi in Russia):
• Leaf handwritten by Rabbi Yisrael Yaakov Neumark, Rabbi of Novhorod-Siverskyi (elder brother of R. Chaim Meshulam Zalman Neumark, Rabbi of Starodub). [Novhorod-Siverskyi, 1864.] Letter of commitment not to drink alcohol [apparently due to R. Neumark's function as a shochet, following an ancient statute].
• Responsum (2 handwritten pages) to R. Chaim Meshulam Zalman Neumark, Rabbi of Starodub, by R. Uri Aryeh Leib Katz, posek in the bordering town of Pahar (Lubyane). [Zlynka?], first day of Rosh Chodesh Tamuz, 1892. Question as to whether the synagogue ark should be changed from the east side to the south side to face Jerusalem.
• Document of sale of chametz (2 pages), handwritten and signed by R. Avraham Yaakov Neumark, Rabbi of Prienai (grandson of R. Chaim Meshulam Zalman Neumark, Rabbi of Starodub). Prienai, 14 Nisan, 1912.
[3] leaves. Varying size and condition. Overall good to fair condition.
R. Chaim Meshulam Zalman Neumark (d. 1893), a leading Chabad rabbi, important disciple of the Tzemach Tzedek, the Rebbe Maharash and the Rebbe Rashab of Lubavitch. One of the most renowned and prominent rabbis of Chabad Chassidut in his times. He served as rabbi of the following prominent Chabad cities and towns: Horki (1857-1867), Starodub (1867-1886), Vitebsk (1886-1888) and Nevel (1888-1893). Rebbe Yehudah Leib of Kopust called him "a renowned posek, both in halachic ruling and in his Chassidic knowledge".
