First Edition Likutim Yekarim by the Founders of Chassidus, Lemberg 1792


Compilation of Torah thoughts from the Baal Shem Tov, Rabbi Dov Ber (the Maggid of Mezritch), Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Premishlan, and Rabbi Yechiel Michel (the Maggid of Zlotchov).
The compiler and editor’s name is not noted. Some ascertain that it was Rabbi Meshula Feivush of Zbarizh, a disciple of the aforementioned sages.
The book was published in Lemberg, 1792, in the renowned press of Rabbi Shlomo Yarish Rappaport. It is rumored that the printers employed in this press were of the thirty-six hidden tzaddikim. (The Noam Elimelech was published in this very press as well.)
Stefansky, Chassidus 301
