On the title page, a handwritten pencil notation: שייך להחתן אברהם יעקב פרידמאן שליט"א ולהחתן יצחק פרידמאן שליט"א ולהחתן שלמה חיים פרידמאן שליט"א, referring to the holy brothers, the sons of the holy Rav the Or Yisroel of Sadigura – the Abir Yaakov, who got engaged in 1895 and got married in 1902, his brother the holy Rav Tabbi Yitzchak of Rimnov and their brother the holy Rav Rabbi Shlomo Chaim who was also known as Rabbi Shloiminyu.

The book was considered a book of Segulah, mainly because of what the holy Rav Rabbi Shlomo of Munkatch wrote in his approbation: ובכן אחיי שמעוני שמעו ותחי נפשכם שמעו אלי וישמע אליכם ה’, קחו הספרים הקדושים האלה להביא ברכה אל תוך בתיכם וזכות המחבר הקדוש זצ"ל יעמוד לכם ולרעיכם להרבות אתכם ולהיטיב לכם בכל עניניכם – כאות נפשכם.

Extremely rare are also the words of blessing of the holy Rav the Divrei Yechezkel of Shinova: תביאו האורה אל בתיכם ומים חיים תשאבו מהמעין גנים וזכות המחבר יגן עלינו להצילנו מכל רע ולהוציאנו מאפלה לאורה.
