Rabbi of Frankfurt am Main. One of the disciples of the Maggid of Mezeritch, brother of Rabbi Shmuel Shmelke of Nikolsburg and the primary teacher of Rabbi Moshe Sofer – the Chatam Sofer.

This book was printed by Rabbi Chanina Lipa in Sudylkow over a decade before he established his printing press in Zhitomir. Pretty and decorated title page, part of it in red ink. 1833. 5 (faulty pagination), 169 leaves. 37 cm. Pastings, stains and worming damage in several places with slight damage to text, otherwise most of the book is in good overall good condition.

Shidlovitz. Verso side of the cover: “Rabbi David Mastricher.”
