Overview: Thursday, Parshas Balak — Nemirov. Brief. Prepared a letter to Lemberg to send now via the post — near midnight — the post is pressed. Heard that Yitzchok intends to be here soon — therefore no need to extend at all. What passes over them every day is impossible to express — great are the acts of Hashem and His wonders seen from afar every day. And we bless three times every day *"matzmia' keren y'shu'ah"* — therefore one must believe that everything that is happening in the world — in general and in particular — is all the sprouting of the horn of salvation. And according to the strengthening of one's faith in this — so one merits to salvation — truly — even in the open. There is much in his heart about this — but impossible to express even by mouth — certainly not in writing. But each person must believe in this. May Hashem reveal His salvation to us soon — *nagila v'nismecha bo.*

[Hebrew: בְּנִי חֲבִיבִי....]

I received your letter — and it was a comfort to me — seeing the immensity of the yearning of your good will.

My beloved son — my dear one. Behold — I have prepared a letter to Lemberg to send it now via the post — and the post is pressed — for it is now near midnight. And behold — I heard that you intend to be here soon — therefore there is no need to extend at all. And behold — what passes over us every day — it is impossible to express — great are the acts of Hashem and His wonders which we see from afar every day. And we bless three times every day *"matzmia' keren y'shu'ah"* — He Who causes the horn of salvation to sprout [מַצְמִיחַ קֶרֶן יְשׁוּעָה — from the *Shmoneh Esrei* — the blessing of the *tzaddik* — *"matzmia' keren yeshu'ah"* — He Who causes the horn of salvation to sprout. We recite this blessing three times every day. Reb Nussun draws a profound teaching from this: the *sprouting* (*tzmichah*) is precisely the nature of salvation — it grows from hidden roots — imperceptibly at first — until it emerges. Every event in the world — even the difficult ones — is part of this hidden sprouting] . Therefore one must believe that everything that is happening in the world — in general and in particular — is all the sprouting of the horn of salvation. And according to the strengthening of one's faith in this — so one merits to salvation — truly — even in the open. And there is much in my heart about this — but it is impossible to express all of this — even by mouth — certainly not in writing. But even so — each person must believe in this. And may Hashem Yisborach reveal His salvation to us soon — *nagila v'nismecha bo.* And peace to all our *anshei sh'lomaynu* with love. The words of your father. Nussun of Breslov.
