Noam Elimelch. Extremely Rare Edition. Segulah! Polonyia 1804.
Rare early edition of the Noam Elimelech, one of the most fundamental Sifrei Chassidus, by Rebbe R. Elimelech of Lizhensk. Includes Chassidic commentary on the Torah, Talmud and Midrashim, as well as Likutei Shoshana and Igeres HaKodesh, which is a response to his opponents written by his talmidim upon R. Elimelech’s request.
Following the Petriah PETIRAH of Rebbe R. Elimelech in 1787, his sons R. Elozor and R. Eliezer Lipman prepared his Torah for publication. In the introduction they write, that it was on the instruction of their great father that his sefer only be published after his passing. It was received with unprecedented acclaim by all factions of Chassidim, and is perhaps the most well-known and most widely learned sefer Chasidus. For generations many have the practice to learn the Noam Elimelech every Shabbos. One of the central themes of the sefer is the explanation of the role of the Tzaddik, hence the sefer is often referred to as “Sifron Shel Tzadikim”.
In his sefer Shulchan Melachim (page 35b), R. Moshe Tzvi Landau writes that it is customary to place the Sefer Noam Elimelech, beneath the head of a mother during labor. This segulah has been practiced for hundreds of years and there are countless stories of miracles involving the Rebbe R. Elimelech and the Sefer Noam Elimelech.
With the Tzava’h of the Noam Elimelech (Hanhogas Ha’Odom) and the Ta’amei HaMitzvos Kabbalistic commentary by R. Yosef Giktilya.
