Tehillim with the Drash Moshe Commentary by the Kabbalist Rabbi Moshe Osterer, Maggid in Brod, with Maamadot. Lvov, 1879. First Edition. Rare. With the Admor of Sadigura's Stamp

[6], 9, 345; 30, 33-39 leaves, cm. Dedicated title page for the Maamadot. There are a number of variants, in the copy before us the number of leaves is as indicated.

First edition which was printed according to the manuscript from Rabbi Yehoshua of Belz's treasury. Refer to the introduction for the history of the manuscript. The author, Rabbi Moshe Osterer, was maggid in Brod and one of the great kabblists in the renowned Brod "kloiz," author of Arugat HaBosem on Shir HaShirim. In the introduction, the publisher relates that he heard from the Admor Rabbi Yehoshua of Belz, that his father, the Sar Shalom of Belz, said that when the author composed his commentary on Shir HaShirim, he was adorned with King Solomon's soul.

Rabbi Nachum Dovber Friedman of Sadigura's stamps appear on both title pages, as well as the "kinyan kaspi" stamp. The Admor Rabbi Menachen Nachum Dov of Sadigura [1843-1883] owned a large library, and he stamped the books according to their source. The book before us contains the stamp "kinyan kaspi," meaning that he purchased the book in order to study it.
