Nezer HaKodesh, Midrash Rabbah with commentary by Rabbi Yechiel Michel bar Uziel of Halberstat.
Large, extremely comprehensive composition on the Midrash Rabbah on chumash Bereishit. The text of the midrash is in the center of the page, surrounded by the commentary. With important approbations. The author was a scholar at the study hall of philanthropist Yissachar Berman Segal, about whom Rabbi Meir Lehmann wrote The King's Advisor. The philanthropist supported printing this book, and the top of the title page reads: "Rejoice, Zevulun in your excursions, and Yissachar, in your tents." A second edition was printed only recently.
