Rabbi Yosef Yoske is the author of two works - "Yesod Yosef" and "Ne'ima Kedosha" - and is often referred to by those titles:[1]
Yesod Yosef[5] is an ethical work, infused with the Kabbalistic teachings of the Ari.[6] It was first printed in Shklov in 1785.[7]
Ne'ima Kedosha[8] is a Shabbatzemer (poem) - with commentary and teachings - composed by Yosef Yoske; the work also lists recommended behaviors and customs.
