Description		    Commentary to the Pentateuch and anti-Reform polemic by R. David Judah Leib Silverstein (1820-1884), Hungarian rabbi. R. Silberstein was born in Bonyhad and studied under R. Meir Ash in Ungvar (Uzhorod). He served in several communities: Ujhely (Satoraljaujhely), Senta (in Yugoslavia), and Vacz near Budapest. He also lived in Jerusalem for eight years between 1859 and 1867.
