Sefer Yalkut Chadash / Sifri with the Zera Avraham Commentary - Radyvyliv, 1814-1820 / Sefer Nisyonot Avraham - Vilna, 1821
Three volumes printed in Russia-Poland, early 19th century.
1-2. Sefer Yalkut Chadash, a compilation of medrashic interpretations, Zohar and Kabbalistic works [alphabetically organized], by R. Yisrael ben Binyamin of Belzec. Radyvyliv, [1814-1818].
Brought to print by R. Yosef Yoska of Voltchisk, with the approbation of his father, R. Mordechai of Kremnitz (1746-1820, son of R. Yechiel Michel, the Maggid of Zlotchov). The final page contains an interesting essay regarding the serious errors found in the Jewish calendars commonly printed in prayerbooks and bibles. It is interesting to note that two years later, in 1820, the siddur "Tefilla Yeshara" was printed in Radyvyliv. It was among the first Chassidic prayerbooks, and became known as "the Radvill siddur". The siddur was meticulously edited, proofread and brought to print by R. Mordechai of Kremnitz, under the supervision of Rebbe Avraham Yehoshua Heschel of Apta (Opatow), author of "Ohev Yisrael".
Bound with: Sefer Nisyonot Avraham, a commentary on the grammatical aspects of Rashi's commentary on the Prophets and the Talmud, by R. Avraham Luria of Shad (Seda, Lithuania). Vilna, [1821].
