Two Seforim by the holy Gaon the Tzaddik Rabbi Yosef Yoska of Rubno, one of the first disciples of the great Maggid of Mezeritch. Yessod Yosef and Likutei Yosef, both first editions, Minkovich, 1803. 

Chassidic Tzaddikim praised the Sefer and its author. 

The holy Sefer Yessod Yosef and the Sefer Likutei Yosef edited by the Chassid rav Rabbi Yosef Yoska Halevi, one of the greatest disciples of the holy Maggid of Mezeritch and the holy Rav Rabbi Michel of Zlotchov. He followed in the footsteps of the holy Maggid of Mezeritch as the Maggid of Rubno. 

In his approbation to this first edition of the Sefer, the holy Rav Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev wrote: "The piety and Torah greatness of the gaon Rav the sharp Chassid … Yosef is common knowledge: his residence was in Rubno and he was Oved Hashem since his youth and did not depart from the tent of the Torah ויהי ה’ את יוסף ויהי איש מצליח כי חפץ ה’ בידו …’

All the other Chassidic Tzaddikim who approbated the Sefer also praise it and its author as well as the holy Rav of Valtshisk Rabbi Aryeh Leib. 

The holy Rav Rabbi Yosef Yoska Halevi of Rubno [passed away in 1800] a leading and early disciple of the holy Maggid of Mezeritch, a disciple of the holy Rav Rabbi Michl of Zlotchov and a disciple and friend of the holy Rav Rabbi Yaakov Shimshon of Shpitveka.
