Description: 1914 Vilna YISRAEL BA'AMIM by R. Eliyahu Gordon ישראל בעמים LANGUAGE: HEBREW G CONDITION, CLOTH COVERS, DRY PAPER Homilies and eulogies delivered in Vilna by R. Elijah b. David Zev Gordon (1865-1932). He was born in Myadsiol (Miadziol?), Vilna Province, in 1865. He initially studied in the yeshiva of Smorgon, but at the age of thirteen he transferred to Reb Maylch's yeshivah in Vilna. Upon leaving Mayleh's yeshivah, Gordon, who was exempt from the military draft because of his status as a first-born son, wandered around Lithuania studying in the yeshivot and synagogues of various towns. In 1888 he married a woman who "was far ahead of her times and much above her milieu. She was well read in modern literature and had a profound knowledge of the Hebrew Bible and Agrada" (p. XII). A few months after his marriage she agreed to let Gordon leave home to study in the yeshiva of Volozhin. He was ordained in 1890 by the deans of the yeshiva, R. Naphtali Zevi Judah Berlin [Netziv] and R. Hayyim Soloveitchik, and he then enrolled in the Kovno kollel of R. Isaac Elhanan Spektor. After he was ordained by Spektor in 1891, he was appointed rabbi of Daugaleskiai (between Vilna and Daugavpils). Desiring to devote himself to Torah study, he resigned in 1895 and accepted a new position as the head of the yeshiva in Vidzy. Gordon later also served as a rabbi in Komai (Kamajai?), Kovno Province, and later yet as the preacher of ViIna's Grand Synagogue. He immigrated to America in 1923 following an invitation to serve as the rabbi of Adat Yeshurun of the Bronx. Gordon was an executive member of Agudath Harabbonim and a member of Mizrahi, the Jewish Court of Arbitration and the Rabbinical Board of New York. He contributed to the Yiddish press.
