Chumash Vayikra. Zhitomir. Printed with a Chassidic Siddur for Shabbat.
Chumash Vayikra printed in sanctity and purity at the press of the Admo"rim Shapira on Zhitomir. Printed by the partners, grandsons of th rabbi of Slavuta, Rabbi Chanina and Rabbi Lipa and Yehoshua Heschel Shapira. Two title pages. The first is a half-title, printed partially in red. Zhitomir, 1858.
Megillat Esther and Shir HaShirim are printed at the end of the chumash. Shacharit and Mussaf for Shabbat are printed in the chumash in the Sephard, per the Chassidic minhag. All the Yotzrot for the four parshiyot.
The chumash is accompanied, as is customary, by Targum Onkelos, commentaries by Rash"i , Ba'al HaTurim and Siftei Chachamim. "And we have now added the book Kitzur Torat Moshe al HaTorah by R' Moshe Alshich..."
It is well-known that sefarim printed in Zhitomir are considered by Chassidic communities to have special sanctity. There were those who were particular to have chumashim from the Zhitomir press in their homes as protection from fire and other misfortunes. Chassidic leaders would pray specifically from a Zhitomir siddur as a segulah for their prayers to be received well.
