The author Rabbi Nahum Weissblat (1865-1925), native of Narodychi of the Volhynian Governorate, Ukraine, was affiliated with the Hasidic sect of Chernobyl, and was the grandson of the kabbalist, Rabbi Jacob Kopel Lipschutz and great-grandson of Rabbi Jacob Kahana. While still in his twenties, Rabbi Nahum published his first halakhic works, \"Pardes HaRimonim\" (regarding the 613 mitzvot [precepts] of the Torah. These writings earned him rabbinic approbations from leading Torah scholars of the generation, including Rabbi Isaac Elhanan Spektor of Kovno. He was also famous for a number of other books, including a Hebrew calendar that extended as far as the end of the sixth millennium since the Creation (published in 1890), and was generally renowned for his extraordinary memory and his commanding mathematical skills. In 1902, he was appointed Rabbi of Kiev, and remained deeply involved in public affairs until his death.
