Ateret Tiferet Yisrael of Rabbi Yisrael Harif. Rare edition. Warsaw [1871].
Ateret Tiferet Yisrael of the student of the Baal Shem Tov, Rabbi Yisrael Harif of Stanov, with the addition of a rare leaf about the Besh”t, the author and the Shabbtaim. Warsaw. 1871. [1], C, [1], 88, [2] leaf. (2 last leaves list of signatures) without an additional title page. At the beginning of the book there is an extremely rare leaf by Rabbi Aryeh Leibush, which was attached only to single copies, about the special connection that the Baal Shem Tov had with the author. In addition, it is related how the Shabbtaim would write their letters in code and they were unable to understand their words, only Rabbi Yisrael was successful in revealing the code and thereby revealed their actions. The writer, Binyamin Mintz wrote that this leaf is very valuable to reality and brings unknown material about the Besh”t. Due to its importance, Mintz copied it in its entirety in his book (see B. Mintz, Selection of Writings, Part A, page 92). The beginning of the book has listed the approbations of all the tzaddikim of the generation, including and the Tzaddik of the House of Rozin. All of them emphasize that since this book is full of the names of the holy ones and the names of the angels, it is able to heal and guard and to provide an abundance of blessing and success.
