Collection of Books by the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch – 1831-1860 – Shaar HaBechirah / Ner Mitzvah VeTorah Or / Shaarei Orah / Ateret Rosh
Four books by Rebbe Dov Ber, the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch:
• "Small booklet on free will" by Rebbe Dov Ber of Lubavitch, called Shaar HaBechirah on the page headers. [Königsberg (Kaliningrad), 1831.] [1], 2-18, [2] pages. Date given incorrectly as 1726 (!) on title page; here given based on Maamarei Admor HaEmtza'i – Kuntresim (Brooklyn, 2008), p. 189, footnote 5.
• Ner Mitzvah VeTorah Or, Part II, "called Shaar HaYichud". [Czernowitz (Chernivtsi): Johann Eckhardt and son, 1858.] [1], 2-40 leaves. Part II, Shaar HaYichud, contains a brief explanation of Hishtalshelut HaOlamot and Sefirot. The Rebbe Maharash said that every one of the Mitteler Rebbe's books was meant for a specific type of Chassid, but Shaar HaYichud is "the key to Chassidic teachings" which the Mitteler Rebbe wrote for all Chassidim (Limud HaChassidut by the Rayatz, p. 30).
• Shaarei Orah, Shaar Chanukah and Shaar Purim. [Johannesburg: A. Goncharovsky, ca. 1860]. Printing details on last page (printing details of first edition on title page). [1], 2-100 leaves. The Rebbe Rayatz cites his grandfather the Rebbe Maharash that each of the Mitteler Rebbe's books was meant for a specific type of Chassid, but Shaarei Orah is meant for all Chassidim and is "the alphabet of Chassidic teachings" (Limud HaChassidut, p. 30).
• Ateret Rosh, Chassidic homilies for the high holidays – Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Shabbat Shuvah. [Johannesburg: A. Goncharovsky, ca. 1860.] Printing details on last page (printing details of first edition on title page).
[2], 3-7, [1], 8-31, 33-69, [1] leaves. Four volumes. Approx. 17.5-19.5 cm. Good to good-fair condition. Stains, creases and wear. Light worming to Shaar HaBechirah. New bindings.
