This is a copy of the special edition that was printed in Mezhibuzh in 1817 after being given an approbation by the holy Rav the Ohev Yisroel of Opatow. In some copies of this edition it was written by mistake that it was printed in 1780, possibly as copied from the title page of the Koretz 1780 edition. However, other copies were already corrected and revised. This is a copy with the correct precise year. Stefansky Chassidut 606.
