With approbation of the author's relative, Rebbe Aharon of Chernobyl, who writes of the author's greatness and about his book: "I have known and heard from my father the Rebbe who highly praised him and therefore it is a mitzvah to print his book to strengthen and increase Torah learning". He blesses the publishers that the merit of the Holy Rebbe Magid should protect "them and the printers and those who purchase this book, G-d should bless them in spiritual and material matters with abundance".
