Especially Rare: Letter by Kabbalist Rabbi Chaim Sinwani on the Sefer Heichal HaBerachah by the Admor of Komárno


"The sacred author is not human; he is divine, having descended here from Heaven"


Lengthy letter covering an entire page (approximately 130 words) handwritten by the G-dly Kabbalist Rabbi Chaim Sinwani, av beit din of Shar'ab and Sinwan, one of the gedolei Teiman, teacher and rabbi of Kabbalist Rabbi Mordechai Sharabi. [Israel, c. 1950s-70s]


The letter contains an enthusiastic approbation in his beautiful language for the renowned commentary Heichal HaBerachah and Otzar HaChayim by the sacred Admo"r Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac Yehudah Yechiel Safrin, av beit din of Zhidichov and Komárno.


Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of Rabbi Chaim Sinwani-Tzaddik.


Manuscripts by tzaddikim are considered tried-and-true amulets for protection and success and all salvations [such as manuscripts by the Ben Ish Chai; even a few lines from them are considered amulets]. This is a manuscript by the leading Kabbalist of Yemen and one of the leading Kabbalists of recent generations [approximately 250 words!], and not just any manuscript, but an approbation from him for one of the most well-known Chassidic-Kabbalistic works of all, such that this approbation naturally contains lofty Kabbalistic concepts. It ends with the most important blessing, written with the pen of the gadol hador b'Kabbalah "May the merit of the author [that is, the Admo"r, the author of Heichal HaBerechah] protect us, amen!"
