"For Health, Joy and a Good Heart" - Threefold Blessing for Chag HaGeulah and Chanukah Handwritten by the Admo"r of Lubavitch, 14 Kislev, 1959

Letter from the Admo"r of Lubavitch to his only cousin, Zelda Schneurson-Mishkovsky (known as the poetess Zelda). Brooklyn, NY.

The Rebbe blesses abundantly, with twofold blessings on the occasion of the two imminent holidays: 19 Kislev - Chag HaGeulah, followed by Chanukah "on which each day another candle and more light are added ... to illuminate externality within oneself and also externality in and of itself." The Rebbe then blesses: "May it be His will ... that He grant good tidings in all matters ... with good tidings that are good and blessed in all their details." And he adds in his handwriting: "For health, joy and good-heartedness."

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 [4] words, several letters and corrections in the Rebbe's handwriting, and his signature at the end; very fine condition. Fold marks. Aging stains.
