Ahavat Shalom, Chassidic essays on the Torah by Rebbe Menachem Mendel Hager of Kosov (founder of the Vizhnitz Chassidic dynasty). Lemberg (Lviv), "1802" [1833]. First edition.
R. Menachem Mendel Hager (1768-1825, Encyclopedia L'Chassidut, Vol. 2, p. 98), was the founder of the Kosov-Viznitz dynasty. He was the son of R. Ya'akov Koppel Chassid, who was among the close followers of the Ba'al Shem Tov and leader of prayers in his Beit Midrash. He was a disciple of Rebbe Elimelech of Lizhensk and of Rebbe Meshulam Feivish Heller, author of Yosher Divrei Emet. After the passing of R. Zvi Hirsh of Nadvirna, R. Hager became the leader of his Chassidim. His teachings were printed in the book Ahavat Shalom after his passing.
