The books of R. Chaim Tyrer (1770-1816), known as “R. Chaim of Czernowitz,” remain to this day favorites of Hungarian Chassidim, particularly his commentary on the Pentateuch, “Be’er Mayim Chaim.” R. Chaim was a disciple of R. Yechiel Michel of Zloczov. See Tz. M. Rabinowicz, The Encyclopedia of Hasidism (1996), p. 78. Interestingly enough, the second part of the book was printed a year before the first part. See Sh. Ch. Porush, Encyclopedia of Hasidism (1980), p. 613
