summary

A student of the Chasam Sofer, the author (1802-64) wrote many polemics against the Reform movement. The present work contains an argument as to why the placement of the Bimah must remain in the center of the synagogue, and under no circumstances moved closer to the Ark as the Neologs preferred.

ff. 36, pp. 12. Lightly stained. Modern calf. Sm. 4to.
