Sefer Zera Kodesh, on the Torah the Hassidic way, by Rabbi Naftali Tzvi Horowitz of Ropshitz. Przemyśl, 1904. Second edition, unknown bibliographically.
The first edition was printed in Lemberg in 1862 on all parts of the Chumash. After that according to the Bibliography Institute (record 0137485) is the Przemyśl edition, 1906, on Bereshit and Shemot only. In that edition are approbations by Rabbi Yehezkel Shraga Halberstam from Sieniawa and Rabbi Meir Yehuda Shapira from Bikavesk. Apparently, here is an unknown complete edition on the whole Chumash, which preceded the 1906 edition. Separate title page for each section. In the title page of Bereshit the year is given as 1904. The year is not recorded on any of the other title pages. Following the first title page the above approbations do not appear and in place of them the printer states: “Let it be known that I have new approbations from the Rabbis of this generation and especially from the Tzadik of Sieniawa, and the Tzadik of Bikavesk, but because of printing expenses I did not include them now… and I hope on completion of printing they will be printed".
After the table of errors the publisher writes that the author was negative about printing books. For this reason his sons refused to print the book. Because of this the first edition was printed secretly without proofreading, [“the first printers acted surreptitiously … for they feared that the author’s sons would find out …therefore they did not appoint a proofreader"]. This is the reason that the book contains mistakes, "errors and thousands of missing words”. These mistakes were corrected in this second edition according to the manuscript.
On the title page of the section Vayikra there is a handwritten dedication and signature by Rabbi Abraham Abish Horowitz of Kruly , the son of the Admor Rabbi Naftali of Melitz [descendant of the author Rabbi Naftali of Ropschitz] and the son-in-law of the Admor, author of “Hakel Yitzhak” of Spinka, who died in the holocaust. Records, signatures and stamps [“I received this book from as a memorial from Rabbi Abraham Abish son-in-law of the Admor of Spinka Rabbi Shlomo Shtael” “Meir Segal Er…", "Haim Yuda Friedman \ Baye Mare”].

I have sold all my possessions including valuable possessions which I received from inheritance of my holy fathers, in order to sustain my family…”. In both letters he requests assistance for his son, Rabbi Shaul Yitzchak [son-in-law of righteous Rabbi Aryeh Mordechai of Porisov, grandson of the “Yid HaKadosh”], who is in need of monetary assistance after the uncle of his wife who supported him, Rebbe Rabbi Ya’akov Tzvi of Porisov, Poland, who was a famous rabbi passed away in Tevet 1889.
