He was highly revered by the great Hasidic masters. The Baal Shem Tov greatly cherished him, and it is told that he once said of him: ”He is a liar – for he says daily in prayer 'We have sinned, we have transgressed, ' when in truth he has never sinned in his life.” [3], 40 [i.e. 50] Leaves. 24 cm.
