Manuscript - Chassidic Essays by a Primary Disciple of the Chozeh of Lublin
Chassidic and Kabbalistic essays on the weekly Torah portions, for the Passover festival and on the Haggadah service, by Rabbi Aryeh Yehudah Leib of Lantzhut and Kishinev, one of the leading disciples of the Seer of Lublin, the author of Arba'a Charashim, Chomat Ariel, Gevurot Aryeh and more.
Most of the essays were printed in the author's books, with differences. The author's novellae were only printed several decades after his passing, from writings that were dispersed among his disciples and they were printed in no particular order. Superficial examination shows that there are passages in the manuscript that have not been printed in the books. It may be that the copyist wanted to create an orderly book, and gathered material from the author's books, and he may have had additional writings.
Page 20b bears words heard by the author from the maggid of Kozhnitz.
Complete and orderly manuscript, with highlighted beginnings of the paragraphs, with a page protector and nice margins.
Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of Rabbi Aryeh Yehudah Leib of Kishinev.
53 leaves, written on both sides of the leaf. 23 cm.
Very fine condition.
