An important Chassidic work by Admor Rabbi Aharon HaLevi Horwitz of Staroselye, student of the Baal Tanya. This work deals with his rabbi’s doctrine and explains his ways ‘b’tov taam v’daat’. In practice he disagrees with the Admor HaEmtza’i (Mittler Rebbe) in understanding his father’s doctrine but both are divrei elokim chayyim. [16], 12, 17-49, 52, 70, 60, 22 leaves in the original. This copy is missing the title page and 2 leaves from the beginning and an additional page from the end. Stefanski Chassidut 589. Printed on light-blue paper, rebound, light stains, overall very good condition.

The body of the work has handwritten notes, first page has the signature: “Luria”. The body of the work has stamps: “Stamp of the Chabad Beit Midrash, Me’ah She’arim, Jerusalem, called Ohel Yitzhak.”
