Folder With 130 Pages of Novellae on the Chapter ‘Yetziot HaShabbat’ in the Holy Handwriting of Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, Halachic Authority of his Generation!
Unique and rare  collection of 130 handwritten pages, penned by the saintly Maran HaGaon Rabbi Moshe Feinstein zt”l. Includes scholarly novellae that were printed in his book, ‘Dibrot Moshe’ on Shas.

Rabbi Feinstein entitled these pages ‘Short annotations on Perek Yetziot HaShabbat’, ‘Chaper 20’. Throughout the 130 pages there are 119 glosses by Rabbi Moshe on this chapter.

The series ‘Dibrot Moshe’ is the crowning glory of Reb Moshe’s scholarly works. This magnum opus includes his lectures in Mesivta Tiferet Jerusalem, and his novellae on a plethora of tractates: Bava Kama, Bava Metziah, Bava Batra, Shabbat, Kiddushin, Yevamot, Gittin, Chullin, Nedarim, Ketuvot, Pesachim, Yuma, Sanhedrin, Beitzah, Shavuot, Avoda Zarah, Niddah and Taharot.

Rabbi Moshe Feinstein (1895-1986) was one of the most prominent Halachic Authorities in the United States. He was the head of the Moetzet Gedolei HaTorah of Agudat Yisrael, and leader of all American Jewry. He stood at the helm of Mesivta Tiferet Jerusalem in New York.
Reb Moshe was also famed for his monumental work, Shu”t Igrot Moshe.
