Chesed LeAvraham – Slavuta, 1794 – One of the First Books Printed by Rabbi Moshe Shapiro, Rabbi of Slavuta
Chesed LeAvraham, by the kabbalist R. Avraham Azulai. Slavuta, [1794]. One of the first books printed by R. Moshe Shapiro, Rabbi of Slavuta (son of R. Pinchas of Korets).
This kabbalistic book was held in high esteem by great Chassidic leaders and is often cited in early Chassidic literature.
The author, R. Avraham Azulai (1570-1644) was born in Fez, Morocco. He immigrated to Eretz Israel and settled in Hebron. When an epidemic broke out in 1619, he fled to Gaza, where he composed this book within five weeks. Most of the book is a collection and arrangement of the teachings of R. Moshe Cordovero, which at that time were still in manuscript form. A small part is from the writings of the Arizal.
