"Divrei Asaf"
by Yated Ne'eman Staff
The memory of Rabbi A. S. Feuerstein, zt"l, is still
vivid in the minds of thousands of pupils whom he taught and
guided at the Yesodei Hatorah schools in London for over
forty years. As headmaster and rebbe, he had personal contact
with each and every pupil. Each youngster felt his concern
and warmth and had the feeling that he had a special place
for him in his heart.
Pearls of divrei Torah were forever streaming forth
from him and he left behind a vast amount of written
chiddushim, which are in the progress of being
published. The sefer Divrei Asaf (the acronym of his
name) includes chiddushim on inyonei Shabbos
and Yomim Tovim, written clearly with headings,
comprehensible for young and old, as well as his notes on the
Mishna Berurah which include mareh mekomos and
psakim from previous London Rabbonim.
The sefer also includes a biography of the author,
describing his ahavas Torah as well as his great
involvement in chinuch and kiruv rechokim in
London, acting as one of the spiritual pioneers of the town
and later on continuing his great deeds and actions in
Eretz Yisroel.
In this sefer we have, for the first time, an
authentic description and account of the planting of the
seeds of Orthodox Jewish education in London, and of the
labor and toil of its fnunders.
Whoever acquires the sefer will be sure to derive
spiritual pleasure and enjoyment from learning his divrei
Torah and chiddushim.
