An extraordinary *166-year-old manuscript written in the holy handwriting of the Ben Ish Chai, Rav Yosef Chaim of Baghdad*, is heading to auction! Dating back to approximately 1860, these *8 handwritten pages* contain the Ben Ish Chai's original notes for a hesped (eulogy), complete with his personal corrections, additions, and revisions. Unlike a finished manuscript, these pages offer a fascinating glimpse into how one of the greatest Sephardic Torah giants developed his divrei Torah! 📜 *View this remarkable piece of Torah history at Mizrahi Judaica Auctions:* https://api.jewishadgroup.com/d7ltzy
