Beis Avraham, Ethical Will of Rabbi Avraham Danzig, Author of Chayei Adam, Vilna, 1821, First Edition.
R. Avraham Danzig (1748-1820) studied under R. Yechezkel Landau (Noda B’Yehuda) in Prague and was then offered the position to be Rav of Vilna. He declined, and instead earned his livelihood as a merchant. Only in his later years did he agree to accept the position of Dayan in Vilna. His most famous works are Chayei Odom on Orach Chaim and Chochmas Odom on Yoreh De’ah. He was a Mechutan of the Vilna Gaon.
