AVROM-DOVID
VAHRMAN (ABRAHAM DAVID WAHRMAN) (1771-October 27, 1840)
He was born in Nadvorne (Nadworna),
Poland, into a family of scholars and businessmen. He was well-known as a great Talmudic
scholar. From 1813 until his death, he
was rabbi in Buczacz and there wrote a number of religious works,
among them Amarot tehorot (Pure
speech), which was written in Hebrew and archaic Yiddish and published in
numerous editions—the first in Buczacz in 1925, the last
in Satmar in 1930. He died in Buczacz.
