== His Seforim == The Maggid did not write seforim himself; his teachings were recorded and printed in seforim written by his talmidim: * "Maggid Devarav L'Yaakov" - This sefer was edited during his lifetime and at his request. Printed in Koritz in 5541 by the Maggid of Lutsk. * "Ohr Torah" - Printed in Koritz in 5562. From a manuscript that was in the possession of Rabbi Yeshaya of Dinowitz. * "Ohr HaEmes" - Printed in Hushatin in 5659. From a manuscript owned by R' Tzvi Chassid, a talmid of Rabbi Yechiel Michel of Zlotchov. The title page states that the work includes the Maggid's teachings written down by Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev. * "Darchei Yesharim" - Zhitomir, 5565, attributed to the Baal Shem Tov, Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Premishlan, and the Maggid of Mezritch. * "Kisvei Kodesh" - Warsaw, 5644, from a manuscript held by Rabbi Yisrael of Kozhnitz. The publisher attributed it to the Baal Shem Tov, the Maggid, Rabbi Levi Yitzchak, and Rabbi Yisrael of Kozhnitz. * "Shmuah Tovah" - According to the first printing, these are divrei Torah written by his talmid Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev. Warsaw, 5698. * "Likkutim Yekarim" - A text of hanhagos (customs) of the Baal Shem Tov's talmidim. Published in Lemberg in 5552 from a manuscript owned by Rabbi Meshulam Feivish Heller. The publisher attributes the content to the Baal Shem Tov, the Maggid, Rabbi Mendel of Premishlan, and Rabbi Yechiel Michel of Zlotchov. * "Dibros HaMaggid" - Most were recorded at the time by his great talmid Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev. (Almost none of the seforim from his library remain in our possession. One of the rare exceptions is the sefer "Tiferes HaKodesh" which uniquely bears the Maggid's signature.
