It was written by the disciples of the author, but it was carefully edited by Rebbe Avraham Dov after Rebbe Mordechai of Chernobyl instructed him to print it. The first edition of the book was printed specifically in Eretz Israel and not in the Diaspora, following the instructions of Rebbe Yisrael of Ruzhin.
In his approbation to the 1869 edition, Rebbe Aharon of Chernobyl blesses anyone who buys the book at full price with success in all their dealings.
Handwritten inscription on title page, dated 1893.
