Seder Olam Rava with Hagahot and Biurim of the Gra. Sklow, [1801]. First edition.

Seder Olam Rava - Seder HaDorot from Adam HaRishon until the days of the Tanaim by Tana Rabbi Yossi ben Chalafta. "Printed in a few places, but all are filled with mistakes and errors, until the true Gaon …Eliyahu of Vilna, removed the obstacles and took away the stones…and wrote an elucidation and commentary on it."
One of the first seforim printed after the death of the Gra. The sefer was published by his close talmid, Rav Menachem Mendel of Sklow, who wrote in the introduction, "He left behind thousands of written pages."
