Unique: Segula book. The kedusha of these chumashim was highly regarded among the Chassidim, thanks to the promise by the rabbi of Komarno in his famous letter to the people of Hungary:
“I promise that anyone who has our chumash in his home will be saved from all evil and all ills and lack, and his home will be full of Hashem’s blessing and all good things and success and wealth and long life for himself and his children… healthy children and sustenance and kindness and mercy and the tipping of the scales to this side of merit, and for long life.”
This Komarno Chumashim were highly favored among the revered Chassidic rabbis and was highly regarded among the great tzaddikim, and especially in the home of the Ziditchov-Komarna-Spinka Admorim, the Divrei Chaim of Sanz and the Tzemach Tzedek of Lubavitch.
Nice set. Original bindings. Two title pages in each volume. Additional title page before Shir HaShirim. Ownership stamps.
