The manuscript's editing and printing lasted 15 years, but already received approbations in 1817 from Rabbi Avraham Danzig, author of Chayei Adam, and from the Vilna Gaon's father-in-law. The work was brought to print by Rabbi Mordechai son of Rabbi Yissachar Ber, who wrote about the book's editing at its close.
