Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld and other Important Rabbis. Handwriting and signatures. Establishment of the Shaarei Chesed neighborhood, Jerusalem, 1908. Fascinating historical document!
Among the signatories: Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld, Rabbi Yoel Moshe Salomon, Rabbi Menachem Nahum Katz, Rabbi Nahum Bergman, Rabbi Dov Ber Ettinger, Rabbi Aryeh Leib Rashks and more.

The Shaarei Chesed neighborhood was established in Jerusalem from 1908 by the heads of the General Chesedim Rehabilitation Committee, headed by Rabbi Naftali Zvi Porush and Rabbi Shmuel Spitzer, and was originally intended for the construction of two hundred stone houses for Ashkenazi scholars, with the best payment conditions and higher housing and construction.
Gabay and the fund's managers were the greatest of the generation, such as the Rabbi Sonnenfeld, Rabbi Eli Ram and Rabbi Yechiel Michal Tokatsinsky, and with them all the great rabbis in Jerusalem.
From its inception to the present day, the greatest and most famous of the generation lived and operated in the neighborhood, including the Rebbe Harlap, the Garchal Auerbach, his son the Gerash and his grandson the Gerash, the Garad Rosenthal, the Gerash Shevdron and more. Metshebin, who used to hold his prayers in the Hassidim synagogue in the neighborhood. This is her moderation and her comfortable character as the veterans of Jerusalem.
