Geulat Yisrael, glosses and explanations on Gevurot Hashem by the Maharal of Prague. Rabbi Yisrael Hofstein – the Maggid of Koznitz. Warsaw, 1865. First edition.
It is a known fact that the Maggid of Koznitz held the Maharal's books in great esteem and he was responsible for their penetrating Chassidic circles. Printed in this book, are glosses written by the Maggid of Koznitz on the sheets of his copy of “Gevurot Hashem” of the Maharal. The commentary of the Maggid on the Pesach Haggadah “Gevurot Yisrael” printed one year previously in Lvov is based on these glosses as his son-in-law writes in the introduction to this commentary, but not all were printed there. Inside the book his glosses to “Ner Mitzvah” and to “Be'er HaGolah” of the Maharal were printed as well. The glosses to “Be'er HaGolah” were printed in the book's 1804 edition. See previous item.
