Ohev Yisrael First Print
Classic hasidic commentary on the Torah by R. Abraham Joshua Heschel of Apta (Opatow; d. 1825). This edition of Ohev Yisrael was printed by Hannania Lippa and Joshua Meir, grandsons of the Rav of Slavita. The title page gives the place of printing as Lemberg (Lvov) in Latin letters but Zhitomir in Hebrew. There are several approbations and an introduction by R. Meshullam Zussia ben Isaac Meir, a grandson of the author. The text, on the weekly Torah readings is in two columns in rabbinic letters. The title of the book reflects the instructions that R. Abraham left, that his sole epitaph should be Ohev Yisrael (a lover of Israel), a description by which he is remembered among the Hasidim.
