Menachem Zion, Chassidic articles on the Torah, which R. Yechezkel Panet heard from his teacher Rebbe Menachem Mendel of Rymanów. Chernivtsi, [1851]. First edition. The first book by R. Menachem Mendel of Rymanów that was printed.
Stated in the name of R. Yitzchak Horowitz of Szczucin, is that "most of the book Menachem Zion by the Rymanów Rebbe is about Parshat HaMan (the portion of the Torah about the Manna in the desert), because the Rebbe of Rymanów often prayed for the livelihood of the Jewish People". (HaChochmah Me'ayin, Bnei Brak 1996, p. 87). Other sources cite that the Rymanów Rebbe delivered sermons for 22 years on Parshat HaMan to attain plenty of blessings and success for the livelihood of the Jewish People (Otzar Aggadot HaChassidim, Part 10, p. 98; many other sources). This book is also known to be a segulah for livelihood. To this day, people from all over the world visit the gravesite of the Rymanów Rebbe to pray for livelihood.
