"The Maharzach, R. Meshulam Zalman HaKohen (1739-1820), rabbi and yeshiva dean of Fürth, a leading Torah scholar of his times and a renowned Tzaddik. He was a foremost disciple of R. Yehonatan Eybeschutz. He authored Responsa and Novellae Maharzach - Bigdei Kehuna, Mish'an HaMayim, and others. The leading Torah scholars of his times held him in extremely high esteem. The Baal HaHaflaa addresses him with effusive praise. His disciple R. Wolf Hamburg writes about him: "Almost all the Torah scholars in our area are his disciples… until his old age he enlightened his disciples with halachic rulings". Following his passing, his position as rabbi of Fürth and dean of the yeshiva was offered to the Chatam Sofer (see Chut HaMeshulash, pp. 81-84, where a letter from the Chatam Sofer on this topic is brought)."
