Letter by the Gaon Rabbi Shlomo Yehuda Rappaport Av Beit Din of Tarnopol, the Son-in-Law of the Author of 'Ketzot HaChoshen'
The letter was sent to Dr. Meir Keiserling, a Rabbi and Av Beit Din in Switzerland.
In the letter, he praises the addressee and recommends him for the position of rabbi.
This historical letter is actually an authentic declaration of intent of Rabbi Rappaport himself, revealing the position of that group of intellectuals, pious and religious, which turned to the Enlightenment Movement.
The date appears on the margins of the letter.
