Old boards, worn. Sm. 4to. Yudlov 398. Nowy Dwor: Johann Anton Krieger, 1796. R. Shmuel Heller (c. 1803-1883) was a leading Chassidic presence in Safed and central to communal affairs both in the Land of Israel and Europe. He authored a number of works, including Divrei Mishpat and Taharath HaKodesh. The endpapers contain other signatures, some with the writer’s mother’s name, likely so that the Rabbi would have them in mind for a blessing.
