"Reishit HaGez" – a bag filled with wool given by Maran Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky to a Kohen
“And the first of the fleece of your sheep you shall give him.”
A bag filled with shorn sheep wool, with which the great Torah leader Maran the Gaon Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky fulfilled the rare mitzvah of Reishit HaGez.
Included is a photograph of this wool being given, by Maran Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky, to the distinguished Kohen Rabbi Yitzchak Cohen z”l.
Also included is a signed certification by the heirs—Rabbi Yitzchak Cohen’s two sons—confirming the authenticity of the wool and that it was sold in accordance with Halacha.
Righteous sages throughout the generations sought to spin tzitzit threads for a tallit specifically from Reishit HaGez sheep wool [see attached image], since a mitzvah had been performed with it.
This Reishit HaGez, through which the great Torah leader fulfilled the rare mitzvah, contains a substantial amount of wool—enough to spin many sets of tzitzit strings.
Bag dimensions: approximately 17x17 cm. The bag is completely filled with wool, occupying its full volume.
Very good condition.
Maran Sar HaTorah, the Gaon Rabbi Shmaryahu Yosef Chaim Kanievsky [1928–2022], was considered the leader of the Lithuanian Torah world in Israel and worldwide, and may have been the last leader to unite the entire public under his guidance. Each year he would complete the entire Torah—learning eight pages of the Babylonian Talmud daily, along with the corresponding passages in the Jerusalem Talmud, as well as the Tur and Shulchan Aruch at a pace of about five pages a day.
