Shulchan Aruch HaRav, by Rebbe Shneur Zalman of Liadi – the Baal HaTanya. [Sudylkiv, 1826]. Six parts in six volumes. Only edition with the approbation by R. Mordechai of Chernobyl.
This edition was printed almost leaf by leaf, line by line, after the first edition (1814-1816). This is the first edition of sections 175-176, laws of blessings.
There are several differences in this edition compared to the first edition.
The first edition was printed in 1814-1816 in Shklow and Kopust (Belarus), and not all its volumes reached Ukraine. The present edition was long-awaited by the people of Ukraine and by R. Mordechai of Chernobyl, as he attests in his enthusiastic approbation.
