The author, R. Meir Derbaremdiker of Berdichev (d. 1805, Encyclopedia L'Chassidut, III, pp. 34-35), was the son of R. Levi Yitzchak of Berdichev and son-in-law of R. Eliezer Rabbi of Karlin (father of R. Moshe of Botoşani). R. Meir was a disciple of R. Nachum of Chernobyl, besides being a disciple of his father, R. Levi Yitzchak of Berdichev, who was his primary teacher as he attests at the beginning of this book: "All is taken from the light of wisdom of my father". He died in his prime in the lifetime of his father. After his passing, R. Shneur Zalman of Liadi, the Baal HaTanya, sent a letter of consolation to his father, R. Levi Yitzchak of Berdichev. R. Levi Yitzchak reputedly escorted his son's coffin with great joy, saying that he is returning a soul to its Maker as pure as it descended to this world. R. Aharon of Chernobyl said that had R. Meir lived a long life, he could have reached loftier heights than his father.
