Interesting Letter by the Third Slonim Rebbe, Author of Beit Avraham - Regarding his Daughter's Wedding
Letter handwritten and signed by R. Avraham Weinberg, the third Slonim Rebbe, with his full signature "Avraham son of the Rebbe of Slonim". [Białystok, ca. 1920s].
Sent to Slonim Chassidim in the holy city of Tiberias. In this letter, flowing with friendship and love, the Rebbe tells his Chassidim of his wedding preparations upon the marriage of his daughter Yuta with the groom Moshe Yaakov HaCohen [Rappaport, who was the Rebbe's nephew], in the upcoming month of Adar. The Rebbe requests that his Chassidim in Eretz Israel pray for him and for the groom and bride and for the entire Jewish People.
R. Avraham Weinberg (the second) of Baranovichi, author of Beit Avraham (1884-1933), was a prominent Chassidic leader in Poland, son of the author of Divrei Shmuel. From 1916, he joined his eldest brother R. Yissachar Leib in leading the Slonim Chassidim, however most of the Chassidim leaned towards his court. He settled in Baranovichi where he established the Torat Chesed Yeshiva. He maintained close contact with his Chassidim in Eretz Israel, and visited there twice. His books, Beit Avraham, are well-known for their great depth in Chassidic philosophy.
His son-in-law R. Moshe Yaakov HaCohen Rappaport of Białystok was the son of R. Avraham Abish Rappaport Rabbi of Kielce, and grandson of the Rebbe, author of Divrei Shmuel. He perished with his entire family in the Holocaust.
