The author, one-time Dayan and Rosh Yeshiva in Minsk, could only find employment as a Mohel upon immigrating to the United States. His sermons here are quaint and interesting. For a wedding ceremony he states: “It is the duty of a woman to be her husband’s friend and adviser, his companion and co- sufferer in all that concerns them both” (p. 69). The book contains testimonials to his skill as a Mohel from four prominent physicians on the Lower East Side, plus an interesting report of the circumcision of a 22-year old man “who rose at once and drank to the health of the Jewish nation” (p. 10).
