Nezer HaKodesh – Midrash Rabbah with a commentary by Rabbi Yechiel Michel b”r Uziel of Halberstadt.
Large and extremely comprehensive work on the Midrash Rabbah – Sefer Bereishit. The text of the midrash is in the center of the page and the commentary surrounds it. With important approbations.
The author was a scholar at the study hall of philanthropist Yissachar Berman Segal, about whom Rabbi Meir Lehmann wrote The King’s Advisor . The philanthropist supported printing this book, and the top of the title page reads: “Rejoice, Zevulun, in your excursions, and Yissachar, in your tents.” A second edition was printed only recently.
