HEBREW
VG CONDITION, HARDCOVER
R' Aryeh Leib Zunz was born in 1768 and was a grand-nephew of R' Yehonasan Eyebschutz. R' Aryeh Leib lived initially in Prague, where he interacted with the town's many scholars, foremost among them R' Yechezkel Landau, the Noda B'Yehuda. From there, R' Aryeh Leib moved to Pressburg, where he became recognized as a leading posek / halachic authority and where he began receiving halachic inquiries from many countries. Later, he was accepted as rabbi of Plock, Poland.
After Plock, R' Aryeh Leib was elected rabbi of several other towns, but he preferred to live quietly in Warsaw composing his Torah works and teaching his many students. R' Aryeh Leib was a prolific author, writing in nearly every area of Torah scholarship. His works include two Torah commentaries (Melo Ha'omer and Kometz Ha'minchah); commentaries on the five megillot (also called Melo Ha'omer); several volumes of halachic responsa (Meshivat Nafesh and She'eilot U'teshuvot Maharal); works on specialized areas of halachah including Pesach, marriage, divorce and wine of non-Jews; and commentaries on a number of Talmudic tractates. Before his death, R' Aryeh Leib promised that he would intercede in heaven for anyone who reprinted one of his works. He also asked that this promise be engraved on his tombstone. As a result, his works have been reprinted many times and they are often sold at reduced prices.
R' Aryeh Leib also had a number of prominent students of whom the best known were R' Yitzchak Meir Alter (the first Gerrer Rebbe), R' Avraham Landa (the Chechinower Rebbe), and R' Yaakov Gesundheit. Among R' Aryeh Leib's sons-in-law was R' Avraham Abisch, rabbi of Frankfurt. It is reported that as R' Aryeh Leib lay on his death bed, he used his last strength to ask his student, the future Gerrer Rebbe, to examine appropriate halachic works to determine whether a person who is in his last moments of life if nevertheless obligated to daven. R' Alter then brought a Rambam and read to his teacher until the very moment of his passing on the 3rd day of Iyar 5593 / 1833. (Source: Melizei Esh)
