Especially Sought-After Siddur: Kabbalistic Prayer Services. Zolkiew, 1781
Seder HaTefillah al Derech HaSod - kavvanot from Sefer Pri Etz Chayim by Rabbi Chaim Vital, received from his teacher, the Ar"i. Zolkiew, 1781. This is probably the first siddur printed using the text later known as nusach Sephard. Incomplete copy.
Siddur for the entire year, weekdays, Shabbat, festivals and high holidays; with the Passover haggadah. The entire siddur, from beginning to end, is per Kabbalistic tradition with sacred Names and kavvanot.
Very important edition. Most Chassidic tzaddikim of the first generations prayed from this edition, and some even wrote glosses and intentions on this edition, such as the Maggid of Kozhnitz and others.
The editor, Rabbi Aryeh b"r Avraham, writes that this siddur was prepared according to a manuscript in his possession; according to the sefer Mishnat Chassidim, as well as according to the siddur per kavvanot HaAr"i edited by Rabbi Aryeh Leib Epstein [Königsberg 1765-1768]. It was proofread primarily according to Pri Etz Chayim. The siddur also contains content from Rabbi Shabtai of Rashkov. This siddur is, in fact, the first edition of the renowned siddur known as Siddur Rabbi Asher [Lemberg, 1788] in which Rabbi Asher added supplements and revisions. The 1788 siddur also has a permit printed in it by the publishers of this siddur here indicating their permission to reprint it.
