author however erred in his note that Reb Avraham Pollak
was Rabbi in Luboml in the year 5318 (1558). According to
this, Reb Avrom was Rabbi in Luboml before Reb Hirschin
contradiction to all the sources.

called "Moyshe ben Hakadosh Reb Avraham." True, he lived
a good deal later (died in 1681); nevertheless, the Daat
Kedoshim (Petersburg, 1897-1898) does well to prove this
and provide a distinction between them. That scholar, who
was avbet din in Horodno and the author of Tiferet Lishlomo,
signs himself "migeza Zevi," and in that way we may distinguish
him from Reb Moyshe Mess.

calculates the rabbinic positions held by the Bach in his
Be'Oholei Shem (Jerusalem, 5703, p. 57), left out the Bach's
time in the Libivner rabbinate. Incidentally, not all books
which record the wording of the Bach's headstone (matzevah)
have the same wording.
