Collection of hundreds of paper items - letters and copies of letters, recommendations and certificates, manuscripts, photos, paperwork and documents - from the family archive of R. Nissim Ochana Rabbi of Haifa. [Egypt and Haifa, ca. 1935-1965]. The archive contains: letters signed by Nissim Ochana; copies of letters, speeches and sermons; autobiographic articles; protocols of rabbinic meetings in Haifa and in the Supreme Beit Din; letters sent to him by rabbis and community activists (R. Chaim Nachum, R. Meir Rubman, R. Yosef Shalosh, R. Yosef Dov HaCohen, Yosef Siton, Moshe David Gaon, etc.); letters of consolation sent after his death; halachic and homiletic manuscripts; various certificates related to divorce bills (gittin), several gittin and signed letters of testimony concerning singles and divorces in various places; family photos and various paperwork items. R. Nissim Ochana (1882-1962) was born in Algeria and immigrated to Eretz Israel in his childhood. He was ordained to the rabbinate by R. Elyashar (the Yisa Beracha) and by R. Shmuel Salant. From 1902-1912, he served as rabbi of the city of Gaza (the central city for the export of barley and absinthe in those days, as he describes it in his autobiography). After the death of his first wife, daughter of the Rishon L'Zion R. Nachman Batito, he remarried the daughter of Jerusalem Kabbalist R. Yitzchak Moshe Ferreira in 1912, and later traveled to the US to serve as rabbi of the Aleppo (Halab) community in NY. During WWI, he served as rabbi in Malta, and in 1920 relocated to serve as rabbi in Port Said, later moving to Cairo in 1935 to serve as Raavad and deputy Chief Rabbi. In 1947, he arrived in Haifa and was appointed Sephardi Chief Rabbi of the city. He authored Na'eh Meshiv (halachic responsa), and Da Ma Shetashiv L'Epikoros (polemic opposing Christianity), etc. Some of his compositions remain in manuscript form [a few sections from them can be found in this archive]. Hundreds of paper items. Size and condition vary.
