Or Olam - Responsa Meir Netivim, two parts, halachic responsa, and pilpul on the weekly Torah portions, by R. Meir Margolies Rabbi of the Lviv region and Ostroh. Polonne, [1791-1792]. First edition.
Many approbations by prominent Chassidic leaders, including R. Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev, R. Zusha of Anipoli and others.
The author, R. Meir Margolies (ca. 1707?-1790), a prominent rabbi in his times, was a leading disciple of the Baal Shem Tov, and one of the first to cleave to him, even before the Baal Shem Tov became famous. R. Meir is considered a "colleague-disciple" of the Baal Shem Tov and mentions him in several places as "my teacher" and "my friend".
Various stamps and signatures. Early stamps: "Aharon Yosef Yuspa son of R. Moshe of Polonne". The heading of leaf 60 bears an early signature: "Yosef Aharon Kahana". A handwritten correction and a gloss appear on p. 21b.
