Haketav Vehakabbalah was first published in 1839,
its intent being to strengthen the faith of Jews
in the authenticity of our traditional Jewish
sources, the Mishna, the Talmud, the Midrash, and
to prove the superior linguistic standard of all
these sources. Rabbi Mecklenburg was at pains to
demonstrate the indivisibility of the written
Torah and its counterpart, the oral Torah.
Eliyahu Munk, was born in Frankfurt on Main, where
he received his education at the Samson Rafael
Hirsch Realschule, and the Yeshiva of the late
Rabbi Joseph Breuer, of blessed memory. He
continued his education at the Yeshiva in
Gateshead, England. He served in Jewish education
(primarily as a teacher) for almost 30 years in
Toronto, Canada.
