One of the first published books detailing the customs of Chassidic Tzaddikim.

These practices are mentioned and practiced by one of the disciples of the great man of Elokim who is called holy, the well-known rabbi and Chassid, the holy light Rabbi Elimelech zt”l.”
Rabbi Zecharyah Mendel of Yaroslav was the prime disciple of Rabbi Elimelech of Lizhensk, and it was he who authored the Iggeres Hakodesh printed at the end of Noam Elimelech. As mentioned in the approbation of the Noam Elimelech, Rabbi Zecharyah was responsible for the first printing of the Noam Elimelech together with Rabbi Elimelech’s son Rabbi Elazar.
