Menachem Tzion, Chassidic essays on the Torah Parshiot, by Rebbe Menachem Mendel of Rimanov (Rymanów). Czernowitz (Chernivtsi), [1851]. First edition.
The book was written by the close disciple of R. Menachem Mendel, Rebbe Yechezkel Panet, Chief Rabbi of Transylvania, author of Mareh Yechezkel. This is the first book of R. Menachem Mendel of Rimanov to be published.
R. Yitzchak Horowitz of Szczucin expounds on the importance of this book saying "most of the book Menachem Tzion from the Rebbe of Rymanów relates to Parashat HaMan (the passage in Shemot describing the falling of the manna for the Jews in the desert), since the holy Rebbe of Rymanów prayed extensively for the livelihood of the Jewish people". (HaChoshma MeAyin, Bnei-Brak 1996, p. 87). This book is also reputed as a Segulah for livelihood. To this very day, people from all over the world visit the gravesite of the Rebbe of Rymanów to pray for livelihood.
