Leaves for Healing
LETTER THREE HUNDRED AND FORTY-FIVE
With the help of Hashem Yisborach  ·  Thursday, 23rd of the Omer — Uman  ·  Year 5601 (1841)
ToPeace and life — to my beloved son — my dear one — the rabbinical scholar — and so forth — our Teacher the Rabbi Yitzchok — may his light shine — with all his household — may they live.

Know my son — that he arrived today to the congregation of Uman in peace. Blessed be Hashem Who has brought him until here. And praised be G-d — his legs did not swell further — G-d forbid — from the wandering of the road — rather on the contrary — it seems to him that they are beginning to heal a little. May the Creator of healings have mercy and complete his healing in completeness quickly — Amen so may it be His will.

Today his eyes are longing all day to receive good news from Lvov quickly — and to Hashem the salvation. And behold — already close to half the days of the Omer have passed. May the Giver of Torah have mercy on them — that they merit from now at any rate to prepare themselves to receive the Torah anew on the holy fiftieth day coming upon them for good — in a way that they merit to guard and to do and to fulfil all the words of the Torah with love. And because of the great urgency — it is impossible to extend.

The words of your father who awaits your true salvation.
