About This Text
Author: Shlomo Hakohen Rabinowicz
Composed: Radomskom, Poland, c.1825 – c.1865 CE
A book of discourses on the parsha and on holidays, it is considered a chassidic classic. It is marked by its particular focus on the righteousness of Joseph and how he embodies the kabbalistic realm of yesod (foundation). The practical teaching that comes out of this is the importance of controlling one's desires.
