Warsaw: R. Nathan Schriftgiesser, 1866-1867. Two parts in two volumes.

The text of the Siddur, the rulings and the two Chassidic essays (HaKol Kol Yaakov and He'ara LeTikkun Chatzot) were compiled and composed by the Baal HaTanya. The other Chassidic discourses (commentaries to the prayers) were delivered by the Baal HaTanya and recorded by his son R. Dov Ber, the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch. This siddur is known amongst Chabad Chassidim as Siddur im Dach (Divrei Elokim Chaim – words of the Living G-d).


Signature and inked stamps of the collector R. Pinchas Berzaze of Maków Mazowiecki (Poland), in the second volume.
