In the first years of the war, when Hungary was under Hungarian rule under the auspices of the Nazis, the genius from Shimluya continued to study and publish his innovations. In response to the claim against him that he publishes books while Jews in distress replied: "On the contrary, to show our brethren Israel that we are confident in G-d that will not leave us or forsake us ... and despite the troubles we study our sacred teachings and help new books of wisdom and knowledge to be published. In this we show the greatness of the love of the Torah among us and the right to love the Holy Torah will protect us. " A few months after the German government invaded Hungary on March 19, 1944, he was transferred with his family to the Shimluya Ghetto, where he continued to write his Torah novels. In his last pamphlet, he wrote: "I finished this pamphlet on Thursday for the order of Metzora, the year 1944, which is a time of trouble for Yaakov and from which he will be saved ...". The pamphlet survived with a non-Jew in Shimluya, and was published in 1966. The genius from Shimluya, who managed to compose about 40 essays, was murdered in the Holocaust about 4 years after this edition was published.
