Pri To'ar. By the Ohr HaChaim HaKodosh. Zolkiew 1810. Magnificent Copy!
Pri To'ar. By the Ohr HaChaim HaKodosh. Second edition, Zolkiew 1810. Magnificent Copy!
Commentary to Shulchan Aruch Yoreh Deah by R. Chaim Ibn Attar, the famed Ohr HaChaim HaKodosh. With the approbation of R. Avrohom Chaim of Zlotchov and the Yeshuos Yaakov.
The seforim of the Ohr Ha’Chaim Ha’Kodosh were received to almost unprecedented acclaim, particularly among Chassidim and Mekubolim. The CHIDA in Shem HaGedolim writes of the great esteem that the Ba’al Shem Tov had for the Ohr Ha’Chaim Ha’Kodosh. In a famous instance R. Chaim Halberstam (Divrei Chaim) ruled that an individual who does not believe that the Ohr Ha’Chaim Ha’Kodosh was written with Ruach Ha’Kodesh is to be considered a heretic.
R. Chaim Ibn Attar (1696-1743), was born in Morocco and was one of its most prominent Rabbonim. In 1733, he decided to emigrate to Eretz Yisroel. En route, he stopped in Livorno where wealthy members of the community pleaded for him to stay and established a Yeshiva for him. In 1742, he arrived in Yerusholayim where he became Rav of the Knesses Yisroel Shul. His most famous talmid was R. Chaim Dovid Azulai (CHIDA). He is buried on Har HaZesim and there are countless accounts of miraculous divine assistance, after praying at his Kever.
