"Nefesh HaChaim." Vilna, 1837. Second edition.
Nefesh HaChaim, mussar, kabala and machshava in the profound depths of Judaism by Rabbi Chaim of Volozhin, outstanding talmid of the GRA of Vilna. Second edition, edited by his son, Rabbi Yitzchak. Vilna, 1837.
The format of all future editions of this work was designated by this one. The author added many glosses that were not included in the first edition and changed some words so as not to insult some factions. This is one of the fundamental works that fashion the Torah worldview of the Lithuanian yeshivah world.
126 pages. 22.5 cm. Old cardboard binding. Censor stamp on the title page, minimal stains. Tears in the spine. Fine condition.
