Likutei Halachot of Moharana”t (Rabbi Natan of Breslav) – First edition. Complete set. Iasi-Zulkawa-Lemberg, 1843-1861
Deep sermons based on the Torah of the Ar”i and Rabbi Nachman of Breslav, designed to show a path and a way of observance; how to attain moral ways of conduct from the Shulchan Aruch, to get close to the Al-mighty from each and every study of Rabbi Natan of Breslav. Rabbi Natan was instructed to write the book by Rabbi Nachman of Breslav.
The book’s publishing took almost twenty years; therefore, a complete set of the first edition is extremely rare. Even the Breslav chassidim in Oman a hundred years ago did not have a complete set and had to borrow volumes from one another. All the volumes have never been offered for sale together in a public auction.
