Important Letter from the Admo"r Rabbi Yisrael Yitzchak of Skiernivitz to his Chassidim in the Land of Israel

Rare and important sacred historic letter, [2 pp] entirely handwritten and signed in full by the Admo"r Rabbi Yisrael Yitzchak Kalish of Skiernivitz - one of the most prominent leading Admo"rim of Poland from the Pre-Holocaust era. Sent before the Holocaust to the Rebbe's followers in the Land of Israel. Skiernivitz, 1936.

The letter was sent when heavy clouds were already darkening the skies over Europe, just a few years before the outbreak of the Holocaust. The Rebbe pleads with his Chassidim: "Mention me in your prayers at the sacred sites during the days preceding the upcoming Hoshana Rabba." The Rebbe begins his letter by expressing his appreciation for the beautiful etrog sent to him from the Land of Israel, but also conveys his distress that it was not wrapped properly, and the pitom became detached along the way ...

The entire length of the second page of the letter, from beginning to end, is filled with rare and important sacred blessings handwritten by the Rebbe himself, who blesses his Chassidim in the Land of Israel:

"I hereby bless you with a good, sweet new year, that Hashem accept our prayers with mercy and seal us in the book of good life, redemption and salvation. May Hashem soon gather our scattered people from the four corners of the Earth to the Holy Land ... Warmly, With best wishes for your welfare, May you have a joyous holiday, Yisrael Yitzchak son of the Rebbe zllh"h ... "
