Sefer Raza Mehemana. Kabbalistic secrets on the Hebrew alphabet, by the hidden Kabbalist Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac Halevi of Zorvitz village whom the Baal Shem Tov revered and with whom he studied Kabbalah. First Edition, Lviv 1791.

Sacred Kabbalistic book that was revered by leading Chassidic rabbis.

Important ownership notation on leaf 1 – ‘צבי הירש במו"ה חיים ליב פייגנבוים מטארנא’ – Zvi Hirsch ben Chaim Leib Feigenbaum of Torno, the brother of the Tzaddik Gaon Rabbi Meir Feigenbaum, the son-in-law of the holy Rav author of Sova Smachot, who also lived in Torno.

It is believed that his writings were edited by the holy Rav author of the Yismach Moshe and that the holy Baal Shem Tov revered him, traveling to him to study Kabbalah with him.
