Shaar HaTeshuvah VehaTefillah, Part I, regarding repentance and prayer, joy and bitterness, by Rebbe Dov Ber Shneuri – the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch. [Shklow, ca. 1830]. Second edition.
Signature on the title page: "Yisrael Nachum Yoffe".
[2], 25; 65 leaves. 18 cm. Good condition. Stains. Minor worming. Margins trimmed, affecting headings of several leaves. Stamps. New binding.
In this copy, the place of printing was omitted from the title page.
The title page text is identical to that of the Shklow 1817 edition, apart from the omission of the blessing for the living after the author's name. Evidently, the book was printed after the passing of R. Dov Ber in 1828. See A.M. Habermann, Shaarei Chabad, Alei Ayin, Jerusalem 1948-1952, p. 357, no. 272. Habermann also casts doubt on the fact that the book was printed in Shklow.
