In many places he integrated into his writings things he heard from others. Rabbi Ze'ev Wolf HaLevi Tirneuer (1882-1959) was a beloved disciple of Rabbi Yehuda Greenwald, Av Beit Din of Satmar. He served as Dayan in the city of Samloi and after World War I, in the rabbinates of Lespezi (Moldovia), Shotz (Bucovina) and others. After the Holocaust, he immigrated to Safed in 1950 together with his son-in-law Rebbe Aharon Leifer of Nadvirna-Banie, and served as Rabbi of the Agudat Yisrael Beit Midrash. He was an exceptional prodigy and holy man and often adopted Kabbalistic ways. At the end of his days, he printed his book Tal Orot on the melachot of Shabbat but very little of the rest of his writings were printed. 292 leaves; 20 leaves; 22 leaves. 46 cm.
