Description
This text was prepared by William Gross:
Kabbalic commentaries on the five books of Moses, by Rabbi Yissachar Dov Ber of Zlotchov, disciple of the Mezhirich Maggid, Rabbi Yechiel Michal of Zlachov and Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berdichev. In his later years he moved to Jerusalem and died in Safed (1795). His book Mevasser Tzedek is one of the most known and important Chasidut books.
In 1794, Jonathan Jacob of Wielowies, Silesia established the first Hebrew printing press in Dubno. Jonathan's partner was M. Piotrowsky, a non-Jew, and the business was under the patronage of Prince Lubomirski, the ruler of the town, whose escutcheon and initials appeared on the title pages. The press was active for nine years and produced 22 books.
