summary

“Dedicated to the memory of the six million holy brothers and sisters who perished during the Holocaust… In the pre-war years, mothers taught their daughters the necessary laws and customs before their wedding. To our sorrow, many of the rescued war orphans have no mother. The publishers hope that this brochure will serve as a guide as well as a remembrance for our mothers who beseeched the Almighty that their children will pursue their future life along the path of Jewish Law in conjunction with the moral and ethical values of the Torah.” Published and edited by the Kahal Yereim of Paris led by R. Hillel Lichtenstein of Krasna. A post-war joint venture of Lithuanian and Hungarian Rabbis, temporarily resident in Paris while seeking permanent homes elsewhere.
pp. 24. Brittle, title loose. Unbound. 12mo.
