HaZohar HaKadosh of the Holy Rav of Poritzk, Grandson of the Chozeh of Lublin: Zohar Vayikra-Devarim, Jozefow 1873.
Sefer HaZohar, Vayikra/Bamidbar/Devarim. Jozefow, 1873. Appearing of the flyleaf, a signature in ancient script: "א' אחרי קדושים תר"מ, לה' הארץ ומלואה קלונימוס קלמן הלוי הורוויץ שטערין פעלד".
This is the handwritten signature of the holy Rav Rabbi Klonymus Kalman the son of Rabbi Yisrael the son of the holy Rav Rabbi Yaakov Yitzchak HaLevi Horowitz, the Chozeh of Lublin. Our tests indicated that this signature matches that of Rabbeinu. It should be noted that many of the Chozeh's grandsons signed their names as Horowitz-Sternfeld after the Rebbetzin Shprintza Sterfeld, the Chozeh's wife.
The holy Rav Rabbi Klonymus Kalman Sternfeld of Poritzk - Jerusalem (passed away in 1885), the son of the Admor Rabbi Yisrael of Lublin, about whom was said by the Chiddushei HaRim: “He is a Masechet by himself and does not require Yichus Avot”, son of the holy Rav Rabbi Yaakov Yitzhak HaLevi, the Chozeh of Lublin. The son-in-law of Rabbi Noach of Poritzk. He immigrated to Israel in his old age and settled in Jerusalem, where he is also buried (Mt of Olives). Among his descendants is the Admor of Bobov.
