Rebbe Chaim ben Solomon Tyrer was an early Chasidic leader, author, and disciple of Yechiel of Zlotshow. Reb Chaim served as rabbi of Czernowitz, Ukraine, for 23 years and other communities for shorter periods. He emigrated to Israel in 1813 and settled in Safed, where he is buried. His magnum opus is Be'er Mayim Chaim, a work of Chasidic insights on the Torah. His other works include Sha'ar HaTefillah on prayer; Sidduro Shel Shabbat on the holiness of Shabbat, a number of halakhic essays; and Eretz HaChaim on Prophets and aggadah.
