Lot 204:
Extremely rare! Divrei Torah by the Admor Rabbi Avraham Yaakov (the second) of Sadigura – several leaves that were mimeographed during the first year of his leadership – 1906!!!
Chassidic Divrei Torah that were said by the Abir Yaakov during his first year of leadership, in 1906. These Divrei Torah are almost the only ones that survived from his Torah, which was said during the fifty years of his leadership. Some of the Divrei Torah were printed only in the second edition of the Abir Yaakov which was publsihed by Siftei Tzaddikim. The style of the Torot is unique, "Torah min Hashamayim", beginning with the words "אומר אני" and ending with the special blessing: "יעזור השי"ת שיושפע עלינו ועל כל ישראל רק חסדים ושנוכל לקיים את התורה בהרחבה אכי"ר" as the Admor of Kopshnitz wrote in his foreword to the book Abir Yaakov: "עדיין חקוק בלבנו ובלב שרידי אנ"ש שיחי’ אופן אמירתו את דברי תורותיו בשלחנותיו הק’, והי’ ממש בחי’ אמירתו לגבוה כמסירתו להדיוט, וראו ממש בחי’ אמרת ה’ צרופה ומזוקקת בהתלהבות נוראה ואור התורה מזהיר על פניו הק’ כלהבי אש, ויציאת צדיק עושה רושם הק’ לדורות".
The Kuntresim were handwritten close to the time they were said and then mimeographed.
