Important Kabbalistic Letter Loaded with Blessings Handwritten by the "Yessod HaAvodah" of Slonim


"Peace unto you and your whole family, peace for all" (from the Yessod HaAvodah's blessings)


Important Kabbalistic letter regarding Chassidic Divine service on the Sukkot festival. Entirely [approximately 100 words] handwritten and signed by the first Admo"r and founder of Slonim Chassidut, the Rebbe Rabbi Avraham Weinberg, author of Yessod HaAvodah, one of the leading Admo"rim over the generations.


The Rebbe, in his sacred way of devotion and his unification with the infinite light, refers to the forthcoming Sukkot holiday as if it was his own wedding: "Now is the time for our beloved relatives to come, when our joy is in us and upon us." In his festive letter, the Rebbe uplifts the reader to spiritual heights with elevated descriptions about the exaltedness of these sacred days in such a tangible way that the reader almost feels that he is levitating several inches above the ground!


Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of the gaon Rabbi Avraham Weinberg and the text of this letter.


[1] leaf. 21 cm. Entirely penned by the Yessod HaAvodah and with his initialed signature.


Fine condition.
