Despite all his troubles, a slight smile always graced his face, and he never for a moment turned away the thousands who sought his doorstep for counsel and salvation. In his letter, Rabbeinu requests assistance from the rabbis of the Committee, detailing his dire financial and physical health situation, describing himself as a Ba'al Yissurim. At the end of the letter, Rabbeinu writes blessings for the Passover: ”ונזכה לאכול מן הזבחים ומן הפסחים ולבנין בית המקדש במהרה בימינו אמן. ואחתום בברכה משולשת ובברכת חג הפסח”. Rabbeinu wrote only few letters and these are almost unattainable! Official stationery.  21X28 cm.  Filing perforations slightly affecting the text. Stains. Fold lines.
