Or Yisrael, Single Edition. Frankfurt an der Oder, 1702


Sacred copy! Or Yisrael. Kabbalistic book by Rabbi Yisroel of Shklov, Russia. Frankfurt an der Oder, [1702].

Single and rare edition with the rare approbation by the holy Gaon the Semichat Chachamim, which is missing from most copies.

Or Yisrael. Kabbalistic book by Rabbi Yisroel Yoffe, the Rav of Shklov. Frankfurt an der Oder, [1702]. Single edition.

 approbation by Rabbi Naftali Katz, author of the Semichat Chachamim, which was given a fortnight after the printing of the book ended, dated 27th of Tishrei 1702.

The first section is on Aggadot and Tehillim; the second, on the entire Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim. With many approbations. Title page with an elegant wood engraving signed by the artist. The author was accused that his book contained Sabbatean inclinations leading some to shelve it; therefore, it is extremely rare. In most copies of the book, leaf 7 [following the author's introduction] is missing. Printed on this leaf was an approbation by Rabbi Naftali Katz, author of the Semichat Chachamim, which was given a fortnight after the printing of the book ended, dated 27th of Tishrei 1702. In this copy, the leaf appears and was bound before the leaves, after the title page.

Measurement: 30 cm
