This chapter talks about Zevi Hirsch, the son of Isaac Eisik Segal of Kalisz, a shtadlan and a native of Poland who emigrated to London and became Samuel Falk's factotum for about four years. It looks at the diary that Hirsch kept, which recorded his daily life in Falk's household. It was written in faulty Hebrew interspersed with Yiddish and English words, and occasionally with terms that seem to derive from French and German. It also mentions how Hirsch referred to Falk as hehakham, meaning 'the Sage', and 'Admo', an acronym that means 'my master and teacher'. The chapter recounts Falk's life in London from 1747 to 1751, which was marked by poverty and deprivation as Hirsch wrote in his diary that he repeatedly visited pawnbrokers to pawn various household effects and clothes. It points out how Hirsch became an eyewitness to the curses that Falk rained on his wife for her inferior cooking.

This chapter centers on Dr Samuel Falk, the Ba'al Shem of London, who was born in Podhajce at the beginning of the eighteenth century and named Samuel Jacob di Falk Tradiola Laniado. It explains that 'Falk' is the name of a family of distinguished lineage that included Rabbi Joshua ben Alexander Falk and Rabbi Jacob Joshua ben Zevi Hirsch. It also recounts how Falk made the acquaintance of Moses David of Podhajce, of whom he jointly studied with and engaged in practical kabbalah. The chapter talks about Falk's family move from Podhajce to Fürth in Germany, which had become a major centre of Jewish life after the authorities permitted Jews to reside in the city in 1528. It cites crypto-Sabbatians and hidden Frankists that were known to live in Fürth that influenced Falk's personality and the course of his life.

This chapter discusses the description of Samuel Falk's diary that is in an article by the scholar Adolf Neubauer published in the Jewish Chronicle. It mentions Solomon Schechter, a tutor in rabbinics at the University of Cambridge who published an article, 'The Baalshem — Dr Falk'. It also cites Schechter's details of Falk's will and how he translated what Jacob Emden wrote concerning the ba'al shem, including how Schechter questioned Emden's charges regarding Falk's presumed crypto-Sabbatianism. The chapter talks about Rabbi Dr Herman Adler, chief rabbi of the British Empire, who delivered a lecture on 'The Baal Shem of London', which was published in Berlin and in London, in which he collected details and testimonies about Falk from various sources. It elaborates how Adler disregarded the kabbalistic material in the diary, which opened a window onto Falk's world.
本章讨论了学者阿道夫·纽鲍尔在《犹太纪事报》上发表的一篇文章中对塞缪尔·福尔克日记的描述。它提到了剑桥大学拉比学导师所罗门·谢克特(Solomon Schechter)，他发表了一篇名为《the balshem - Dr Falk》的文章。书中还引用了谢克特关于福尔克遗嘱的细节，以及他如何翻译雅各布·埃姆登(Jacob Emden)所写的关于ba'al shem的内容，包括谢克特如何质疑埃姆登对福尔克假定的秘密安息日主义的指控。这一章讲述了拉比赫尔曼·阿德勒博士，大英帝国的首席拉比，他发表了一个关于“伦敦的巴力·谢姆”的演讲，在柏林和伦敦出版，他从各种来源收集了关于福尔克的细节和证词。它详细说明了阿德勒是如何无视日记中的卡巴拉材料的，这为福尔克的世界打开了一扇窗户。

This chapter mentions Michal Oron's account of Samuel Falk, the Ba'al Shem of London, which complicates the conventional characterization of eighteenth-century Britain as the cradle of toleration, reason, liberty, science, and enlightenment. It discusses rational religion and Enlightenment science that discredited magic, superstition, prophecy, and wonders, along with ghosts, spirits, demons, and the like. It also describes well-born Christians and wealthy Jews who turned to Falk to answer questions and solve problems that resisted conventional approaches. The chapter talks about Falk as a charismatic religious figure, a ba'al shem, whose authority flowed from his virtuosity in employing divine names for magical ends rather than expounding Jewish law. It highlights London as the westernmost outpost of European Jewry in the eighteenth century.
