THE SHELA”H SIDDUR. A SUMPTUOUS COPY - WITH EXTRA-WIDE MARGINS THROUGHOUT. A particularly handsome copy of this celebrated prayer-book with a Kabbalistic commentary by the Holy SHeLa”H. Prepared for publication by the SHeLa”H’s great-grandson, Abraham, it includes his comments as well as those of his grandfather, Shabbetai Sheftel. Rabbi Joel Sirkes (The Ba”CH), one of Poland’s most outstanding Talmudists, famously attests in his lead approbation (f.2v) the certainty that all prayers invoked from the SHeLa”H Prayer-Book will most assuredly be fulfilled.
