Description
   Hasidic commentary to the Pentateuch.

R. Samuel Zevi b. Jehiel Danziger (1860-1923), Admor of Aleksandrow Hasidim, the third in a line of an influential dynasty of Hasidic rabbis in Poland active from the second half of the 19th century. Their "court" was at Aleksandrow Lodzki, a small town near Lodz. In contrast to the Hasidim of Gura-Kalwaria (Ger), the Aleksandrow Hasidim generally did not take part in Jewish party politics in Poland. He had wide learning and a keen intellect, and was beloved by the Hasidim. A natural leader, R. Samuel Zevi would question his followers about their circumstances and advise them accordingly, consoling, encouraging, and reproving. He had about him a small circle of learned disciples, but also provided moral guidance to all his followers.
