Query: Scholarly interest in a pre-war Bible commentary

Shalom Berger Discussion

I am currently working on deciphering a manuscript - a Bible commentary - written by Rabbi Bencian Grjnhaus, a maskil who lived in Ilya (near Minsk) before World War II. The manuscript has a number of approbations in one of its opening pages, including one from Joseph Regensburg, director of the Gymnasia HaIvrit in Vilna.

I would be interested in knowing whether anyone has more information about the author and whether Jewish studies scholars might be interested in seeing this work.
