Jerusalem/Yerusholaim: Relief Comittee for Refugee Rabbis in Palestine, 1947. In November 1939, the Union of Orthodox Rabbis of the United States established the "Va'ad ha-Hatsala" (Rescue Committee), a relief and rescue agency that saved European rabbis, rabbinical academy students, and other orthodox Jews. From 1940 to 1941, the Va'ad assisted in the emigration of approximately 650 individuals from Lithuania to the United States, Palestine, and parts of Asia. Beginning in 1942, as news of the Holocaust spread throughout Europe, the Va'ad took on the rescue of Jewish people from under Nazi occupation. One of the most successful of these efforts was the rescue of 1,220 Jews from the Theresienstadt Ghetto.

This booklet, dating to two years after the end of World War II, provides an early post-war report on the work of the relief committee, especially those escaping the Holocaust and coming to Palestine, with news, photographs, maps, and facsimiles. It includes a history of the organization, statistics on the Rabbis and where they came from, letters, information on housing, and information on a publication edited by refugee Rabbis titles "Oytzer Ha-Poskim".
