About R' Tzvi Hirsch HaKohen of Rymanow

Called Reb Tzvi Hersh Meshares, author of Be'eros Hamayim.

From the age of fifteen, Tzvi Hersh began traveling to the court of Rav Menachem Mendel of Rimanov. He became one of the Rebbe's closest chassisdim and his personal attendant; he thus became know as Rav Tzvi Hersh Meshares. After the petira of Rav Naftali of Ropshitz (another of the closest chassidim of Rav Menachem Mendel), Rav Tzvi Hersh returned to Rimanov to accept the mantle of leadership of the chassidim. His divrei Torah were compiled and published by his son, Rav Yosef, under the name Be'eiros Hamayim. It is comprised of several sefarim, all beginning with the word Be'er. For example, the sefer Be'er Lechai Roi, contains his drushim on Chumash and the Yomim Tovim. Other teachings of his can be found in the sefer Mevasser Tov. His yahrtzeit falls on the thirtieth of Cheshvan, but since Cheshvan more often has only 29 days, it is generally commemorated on the 29th.
