(CIRCUMCISION).
Isaac Leib Kadushin. Berith Yitzchak [laws, sermons and services for life-cycle occasions]. Text in Hebrew and English.

* BOUND WITH: Tzion: Part II of Brith Yitzchak [prayers and speeches for holidays, Yishuv Eretz Israel and eulogy for Rabbi Samuel Mohilever]. FIRST EDITION.
Opening title worn and taped. Modern boards. 8vo. Singerman 5198 (unseen); Deinard, Koheleth America, 101 (with erroneous pagination) and 693; Goldman 579 and 946.
New York: A. H. Rosenberg 1897

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).
