"May it be His Will that these Days of Chanukah ... Increase Success" - Letter with the Admo"r of Lubavitch's Handwritten Additions and Signature, 25 Kislev 1955

Letter from the Admo"r of Lubavitch to Tze'irei Agudat Chaba"d, Jerusalem branch. 25 Kislev - first night of Chanukah, Brooklyn, NY.

The Rebbe arouses the Chassidim with respect to peace between them, and encourages them to act without delay to spread the doctrine of the Chassidut to wider circles, because "each moment that passes is a terrible loss." The Rebbe also expands upon the essence of the Chanukah holiday, when matters of this world decrease and spiritual matters increase. In the margins of the letter, the Rebbe mentions 19 Kislev - Rosh HaShanah L'Chassidut - "Our redemption and the deliverance of our souls."

The Rebbe adds the words "[With blessings for] success and good tidings as above" in his handwriting.

The Admo"r Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson [1902-1994], seventh in the dynasty of the Admo"rs of Lubavitch, started serving as Admo"r in 1951 and continued until his passing. He was a tremendous gaon in all aspects of the Torah. His net was - and still is - cast across the entire world. 

[1] official stationery leaf, 28 cm. The letter is typewritten, with the addition of [5] words and many letters and punctuation marks, in the Rebbe's handwriting, with his signature at the end; fine condition. Filing perforations. Fold marks with tiny tears in the folds without damage to text.
