One of the most colorful characters in the rogue’s gallery of Rabbinic literature is undoubtedly the man who called himself “Solomon Judah Algazi Friedlander.” This unlikely figure arrived in Hungary at the turn of the 20th-century, presenting himself as a Sephardic Jew from the Orient, who had made a startling discovery: A manuscript containing the long-lost Jerusalem Talmud on the Order of Kodashim. Although initially greeted with great enthusiasm, doubts soon arose as to the authenticity of the work, and aspersions were cast upon the moral character of the enigmatic and audacious Herr Friedlander.
