Aruch HaKinuyim, with an endorsement by Rebbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev. Dyhernfurth, 1806. First edition.
The Aruch HaKinuyim is a lexicon explaining the roots and meanings of terms in Biblical Hebrew, authored by Rabbi Yechiel Heilprin, the author of Seder HaDorot.
The first edition was printed in Dyhernfurth, 1806, by Yosef May.
It includes endorsements from various leading scholars of the era, including the holy Rebbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev, who signed in a unique form, “the young Tzvi Levi, son of the Gaon Rabbi Shmuel, in hope for good.” This endorsement was written in Selichavi on Lag B’Omer, 1775 (see: Kiryat Sefer, Vol. 23, 1945–1946, pp. 192–193).
