The famous Ga’on Rabbi Yitzchak Dov HaLevi Bamberger (1808-1879, Otzar HaRabbanim 11282) was appointed to the Virtzburg Rabbinate in 1840. Was considered one of the leading Torah giants of the generation and many rabbis of Germany were his disciples. Authored important compositions in Halacha and Talmud (Yad HaLevi, Neti’ah Shel Simcha, Melechet Shamayim and more). Despite his explicit request that his responsa not be printed, following his death his sons approached the giants of the generation, the Ga’on Rabbi Yitzchak Elchanan Spektor, the Netziv of Volozhin and the Maharil Diskin, with the question of how to deal with his writings. They were instructed not to be apprehensive and were encouraged to enable the public to gain from the printing of his responsa.
His son, the Ga’on Rabbi Shlomo HaLevi Bamberger (1835-1918, Otzar HaRabbanim 18389). Genius and author of books, served as Rabbi in several communities, was Av Beit Din of Senheim (Alsace), printed writings of his father together with his brother Rabbi Moshe Aryeh HaLevi Bamberger Av Beit Din of Kissingen. See collection of letters by him – item 443.
