Arvei Nachal. Sudilkov, 1835
Arvei Nachal Part II. Sermons on the Torah per Chassidic foundations, by the Admo"r Rabbi David Shlomo Eibeschutz, known by the name of his book, as the author of Arvei Nacha"l. Sudilkov, 1835. Rare second edition.
Before us is the rare second edition of one of the fundamental and most important books from the second generation of Chassidism. The book is founded on the Ba'al Shem Tov's words, whose words, along with those of his disciples, are often cited in this book. The book is built on lengthy sermons on the weekly Torah portions and the festivals.
Rabbi David Shlomo Eibeshutz [1855-1914] was one of the leading Admo"rs of his generation. He belonged to the group of disciples of Rabbi Yechiel Michel, "the maggid of Zlotchov," and even brought something heard in his name in this book (in the Torah portion "Ki Tisa"). He was a friend of many of the rabbinic leaders of his generation: Rabbi Ya'akov Shimshon of Shepetovka, Rabbi Baruch of Medzhibuzh, and more. In 1808, he ascended to the Land of Israel and settled in Safed, where he passed away. His grave in the cave of tzaddikim in Safed, beside that of the "Bat Ayin," became a pilgrimage site, known primarily as a tried-and-true segulah for salvation in finding one's match. The author chose the name Arvei Nachal in his lifetime, but the intent in his choice of this name is unclear. He merited that Levushei Sarad in halachah and Arvei Nachal on Chassidut became very famous.
