MAZKERET YASHAR: TESHURAH LE-OHAVAV.
(FT) Cloth, 46 pages, 12mo, 18 cm. In Hebrew. 1st edition. Reggio (1784-1855) was one of the founders of the Collegio Rabbinico Italiano. He published an Italian translation of the Pentateuch, with a Hebrew commentary (Vienna, 1821) , and wrote Ma'amar Torah min ha-Shamayim ("The Torah as Divinely Revealed, " Vienna, 1818) to prove the divine authority of the Pentateuch. Among his other biblical works are a poetic version in Italian of the Book of Isaiah (Udine, 1831) ; a Hebrew introduction to the Scroll of Esther (Vienna, 1841) ; and Italian translations of the books of Joshua, Ruth, and Lamentations, and of Pirkei Avot. In Ha-Torah ve-ha-Filosfyah (Vienna, 1827) , written under the influence of Mendelssohn, Reggio tried to show that reason and philosophy were compatible with the Torah. His Iggerot Yashar (183436) are exegetic, historical, and philosophical notes in the form of letters to friends. He also edited some of the writings of Leone di Modena and wrote Behinat ha-Kabbalah (Gorizia, 1852) . Reggio published other works on Kabbalah and philosophy in Bikkurei ha-Ittim ha-Hadashim under the pseudonym Iashar. His autobiography, Mazkeret Yashar, appeared in Vienna (1849) . His Hebrew correspondence with S. D. Luzzatto was collected by V. Castiglione (1902) ; it shows their mutual esteem and friendship. Reggio also wrote some halakhic and pedagogical works, one of which appeared in English: A Guide for the Religious Instruction of Jewish Youth (London, 1855) . His views on Judaism did not always conform to tradition and led to polemics with German rabbis as well as his own father, Abraham Reggio. (Rabello in EJ, 2007) .

(FT) Hardcover, 8vo, 36, 140, 4 pages, portrait, 25 cm. In Hebrew. SUBJECT(S) : Jewish diaspora. Edition: Hotsaah hadashah u-metukenet ? Im hosafat toldot ha-mehaber; me-et ... Yehudah Leib ha-Kohen Fishman. Reines (1839-1915) was a rabbi, one of the founders and first head of the Mizrachi movement. Born in Karolin, Belorussia, Reines studied at the Eishishok and Volozhin yeshivot and was ordained by leading rabbis. He served in the rabbinate in Shavkyany, Lithuania, from 1867; in Sventsyany, Vilna district, from 1869; and in Lida from 1885 until his death. Reines made a distinct contribution to rabbinic scholarship, introducing a new and almost modern methodology which was in contrast to the current system of pilpul. It was based upon a purely logical approach and was influenced by Maimonides Millot ha-Higgayyon; it is actually called Higgayon. In the introduction to his first major halakhic work, ? Otam Tokhnit he emphasized this new approach, as he did in his later works. The ? Otam Tokhnit made a great impression, especially in Western Europe where Jews were not accustomed to works on halakhah with a strictly logical approach that had been written by Eastern European scholars. He also applied his new approach in his homiletical books, which, like others of his works, went through a number of editions. Reines tried to introduce the spirit of the times in his public activities, without breaking with tradition, and founded a yeshivah in Sventsyany
He participated in the first Zionist Congresses and was very close to Herzl, but he opposed the cultural work of the Zionist movement for fear that it would encroach on the status of religion. In 1902 he convened a large conference of rabbis and Orthodox people in Vilna and as a result the Religious Zionist movement, Mizrachi, was formed. Reines was the recognized leader of the movement and the outstanding personality at its founding convention in Pressburg. Many Orthodox rabbis, especially from Hungary, protested the convening of the founding conference and were against Mizrachi altogether. Reines answered them very sharply, sparing not even the greatest among them. He also founded the first journal of Mizrachi, entitled Ha-Mizra? . His great attachment to Herzl found expression during the controversy over the Uganda Scheme, when he proved to be an enthusiastic supporter of the plan. Despite all his public activities, Reines continued to write. Only a small portion of his works were published, and the rest remain in manuscript. In Lida, he realized his greatest personal dream the establishment of a modern yeshivah in which secular studies were taught side by side with traditional studies, all within the framework of the meticulous observation of tradition. The yeshivah was established in 1905 and achieved a distinguished reputation. Reines developed the educational principles of the yeshivah in the booklets Kol Yaakov, Mishkenot Yaakov, and others. Although the Mizrachi movement viewed the yeshivah as its own project, its maintenance rested on Reines shoulders. While the institution was developing, World War I broke out and the suffering that it brought affected Reines health. In the past few years some of his works have come out in new editions and in facsimile editions (Kressel in EJ, 2007) . Hinge repair. Very good condition. (Heb-40-8)

DAS TARGUM ZUR CHRONIK.
8vo. 50 pages. In German. SUBJECT (S) : Targum. Chronicles criticism, interpretation, etc. OCLC lists 3 copies worldwide (JTSA, Leiden Univ, Cambridge Univ) . Kohler (1843-1926) was born in Bavaria and received his doctorate in 1867. "His university studies had shattered Kohler's Orthodoxy and his doctoral thesis, Der Segen Jacobs, took such a radical viewpoint that no rabbinic position was open to him. " In 1869, at the suggestion of Abraham Geiger, Kohler moved to the United States, leading congregations first in Detroit, Chicago and New York. An anti-Zionist, active member of the Central Conference of American Rabbis and president of Hebrew Union College, he was a Reform leader. "[In 1885, ] replying to attacks by Alexander Kohut, he published a series of sermons entitled Backward or Forward (1885) . The outcome was his convening of the Pittsburg Conference of Reform rabbis and its adoption of a radical program on the basis of Kohler's draft. In 1903 Kohler was appointed president of Hebrew Union College and set about immediately to improve the curriculum and to bring fresh talent to the faculty. Upon his retirement, Kohler received the title of president emeritus. " (Temkin, EJ) Ex library. Pages tanned, title page missing, moisture stain in margin throughout, good condition. (GER-27-8)
