KABBALAH – Zohar Chai (Komarno) – Premishla, 1878 – First Edition
Zohar Chai, on Shmos part 1, commentary to the Zohar based on Kabbalah and Chassidut, by the kabbalist Rebbe Yitzchak Eizik Yehuda Yechiel Safrin, Rabbi of Komarno, author of Heichal HaBerachah. Premishla (Przemyśl), 1878. First edition.
Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac of Kamarna (1806-1874) was a revered Kabbalist and the first Rebbe of the Kamarna dynasty. His teachings harmonized the Holy Ari with the Baal Shem Tov’s Torah.
The commentary, initially paused due to illness, resumed after a dream visitation by the Baal Shem Tov. Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac insisted his son publish it, promising its healing potential.
