Two letters signed by Jerusalem rabbis appointing Rabbi Ya'akov Bezalel Zolty as Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem. [Jerusalem, Chanuka 1971]. One letter: "Notice to the Torah (world) and severe warning", signed by Rabbi Yitzchak Ya'akov Wachtfogel, Ra'avad of the Beit Din HaGadol of all Ashkenazi communities [Beit Din of Rabbi Frank], Rabbi Elkana Weisenstern head of the Chief Rabbinate of the Council of Religious Affairs and Rabbi Baruch Yitzchak Levine, delegate of rabbis of Jerusalem neighborhoods. In the letter, they warn against anyone daring to present his nomination for this office, since "all the rabbis and heads of yeshivot" have elected and chosen Rabbi Zolty for the position of Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem. the second letter is a writ appointing Rabbi Zolty signed by the abovementioned three rabbis with the signatures of six other rabbis. Rabbi Ya'akov Bezalel Zolty (1920-1983), a renowned Torah scholar, served as member of the Beit Din HaGadol. On Chanuka 1971, he was appointed head of the Rabbis of Jerusalem at an assembly for that purpose initiated by Torah leaders: Rabbi Yechezkel Abramsky, Rabbi Elyashiv and Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Auerbach. From the death of Rabbi Zvi Pesach Frank in Kislev 1960, no Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi was appointed in Jerusalem. the appointment of Rabbi to the office of "head of the rabbis" took place after more than 10 years of a drawn-out struggle among various bodies. After the assembly at which Rabbi Zolty was appointed, the second stage of action began - official and government recognition of this appointment. these are two significant documents drawn for this objective, signed by important senior rabbis of the Religious Council, calling for recognition of this appointment. 2 letters, typewritten with handwritten signatures. Varied size and condition, good to fair.
