Later compilation
Sefer Baal Shem Tov (The Book of the Baal Shem Tov)
ספר בעל שם טוב
Two volumes arranged by weekly Torah portions that gather, with indication of provenance, everything Hasidic literature attributed to the Besht. It is the widest collection of his teachings, but does not distinguish early from late layers, so the historian must go back to the sources it cites. It includes the compiler's notes (*Mekor mayim hayim*).
