Letter from the Admor of Ozharov Rabbi Moshe Yechiel HaLevi Epstein
Letter handwritten and signed by the Admor of Ozharov Rabbi Moshe Yechiel HaLevi Epstein.
The letter is addressed to Rabbi Weinstock, who dealt with printing the Admor's books, and details the manner in which his Torah novellae were written. "Understandably, I am not certain, only hoping for Heavenly mercy in the merit of the holy Torah ... they were written in a great rush and the matters are very fragmented ... I only filled in important notes and they are attached ...." Among other things, the Admor writes the manner in which his Torah novellae were written - detailing in one place a certain issue, and adding a tweak in the ommissions, and the reason for doubling a certain issue in his writing, is that each time he writes, the words are renewed, and he instructs that matters be viewed patiently and in depth once and twice and then the importance of the matters will be seen. "And work with this for the benefit of the book, that it should be for the benefit of the house of Israel for the sake of G-d's name."
