Torah Or (Chabad) 1862
Torah Or, Chassidic essays on Bereshit, Shemot, Chanukah and Purim, including Hosafot L'Sefer Torah Or (Supplements to Torah Or), by Rebbe Shneur Zalman of Liadi – the Baal HaTanya. Zhitomir: R. Chanina Lipa and R. Yehoshua Heshel Shapira, grandsons of the Rabbi of Slavita, 1862. First edition of the supplements.
Printed on the second title page: "Reprinted most elegantly and corrected…".
The supplements include 15 new essays of the Baal HaTanya. While most of the book follows the writings of the author's brother, R. Yehuda Leib of Janowiec, the essays printed in the supplements were written by the author's son, R. Dov Ber, the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch, as attested to on the title page of this section.
A tradition is cited in the book Beit Rebbi by R. Chaim Meir Heilman (Berdychiv 1902, II, p. 34), that the essays printed in the supplements were edited and abridged by the Tzemach Tzedek, son-in-law of the Mitteler Rebbe.
102; 24 leaves. Two title pages. First title page printed in red and black. Another title page for supplements. Approx. 27 cm. Excellent condition. Stains and wear. Worming. New binding.
Stefansky Chassidut, no. 612.
