Sefer Shnei Luchot HaBrit. Pure sayings more precious than pearls ... composition on the Oral and Written Torah, arranged and organized ... by ... the complete G-dly sage ... Rabbeinu Yeshaya HaLevi Horowitz. Amsterdam, Immanuel Benveniste Press, [1648-1649]. First edition.

First edition of this famous book, renowned in the entire Jewish diaspora throughout the generations. Per the name of this work, its author, Rabbi Yeshaya HaLevi Horowitz, became known as the "Shelah HaKadosh." This is the first edition, printed with much toil by his son, Rabbi Sheftel, rabbi of Posen.

This is one of the most fundamental works of mussar and kabbalah, and includes novellae in both revealed and hidden Torah and proper conduct.

This is one of the few books esteemed and studied by all the various Torah factions. This edition includes the Vavei HaAmudim by Rabbi Sheftel. Out of his great respect for his father, he referred to his own work as an "introduction."
