Shalom Charif
1755 CE–1825 CE · Acharonim · Fürth
Rabbi Shalom Ullmann (1755-1825) was a Talmudist active in the German lands and western Hungary at the turn of the nineteenth century. Born in Fürth, he became widely known by the epithet "Charif," a Hebrew term for the sharp, incisive style of reasoning for which his learning was noted. He first held rabbinic office in his native Fürth and later led the community of Frauenkirchen (Boldogasszony), a town in Moson County near the Austro-Hungarian border. His Talmudic novellae, gathered on a range of tractates, were published after his death under the title Divrei Rash (1826). He died in Lackenbach, where his rabbinic line continued: his son Avraham and, later, his grandson David each served that community as rabbi, extending the family's presence in the region's Torah scholarship across several generations.
