"Children, Health and Sustenance!" Renowned Segulah Book, Ben Beiti. First Edition
"Anyone who brings blessing to his home [by buying] this sacred work ... will experience all kinds of salvation in the realms of children, health and sustenance, amen, may it be His will."
Ben Beiti - Kabbalah and Chassidut on Sefer Bereishit according to the Ar"i and according to the Ba'al Shem Tov (not printed for the other chumashim), by the Admo"r, the G-dly Kabbalist Rabbi Eliezer Tzvi Safrin- the second Admo"r in the Komárno dynasty. Premishlan, 1900. Page 16a bears proofreading symbols.
This book was printed just after the sacred author's passing, by his eldest son, the salvation-worker, the Admo"r Rabbi Menachem Manish Safrin, with a lengthy introduction by him about his great father. The renowned salvation-worker expresses his blessing in the margins of the approbation as follows, "From the channels of influence continued by my sacred ancestors ... to influence the entire Jewish people with all goodness, children, life and sustenance, amen, selah, may it be His will, signed by one who speaks from love ... the small one, Menachem Manish Safrin, son of my father, the sacred author, zlh"h, of Komárno."
The sacred Rebbe who was well-versed in Kabbalistic wisdom concludes his segulah foreword with a Kabbalistic gematria of his father's, the author's, name, which works out to "May Hashem be with us as he was with our ancestors, and not abandon us" ["יהי ה' אלקנו עמנו כאשר היה עם אבותינו אל יעזבנו"].
Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of the author, the Admo"r Rabbi Eliezer Tzvi Safrin of Komárno and of his son, the Admo"r Rabbi Menachem Manish Safrin.
