Sephath Emeth…im Hapeirush Magen Giborim.

Polemic protesting the machinations of the Satmar Beth Din awarding the election of Rabbi Joel Teitelbaum of Kroly as Rabbi of Satmar against the incumbent, the Dayan of Satmar, R. Chaim Halberstam. This work publishes the text of the “Pesak Din” ruling in favor of R. Joel Teitelbaum and then refutes it point by point. The introduction contains letters suporting Rabbi Halberstam written by the Munkatcher Rebbe R. Chaim Elazar Shapiro, R. Mordechai Leib Winkler of Mad, R. Shalom Eliezer Halberstam, R. David Sperber and others. The bitterly contested election long undermined the unity of the Satmar community and this particular work is quite scarce as the opposing faction sought to destroy all copies.
