LETTER THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-EIGHT
Tuesday, Parshas Vayeitzei — Uman  ·  Year 5602 (1841)
ToAlso he extends peace to his dear friend — the rabbinical scholar — and so forth — our Teacher the Rabbi Avraham Ber — may he live — and to his dear friend — the rabbinical scholar — and so forth — our Teacher the Rabbi Abeli — may he live — with all his household and his children who go forth from his loins — may they live. And to all our anshei sh'lomaynu with great love.

They have already been informed that he is now here — in the congregation of Uman. And he arrived here on the past Tuesday — Parshas Toldos. And apparently he will remain here still some days or weeks. And it is likely that he will remain here or in these surroundings for Shabbas Chanukah coming upon them for good. And just now he has no word in his tongue to inform them of anything — for he is waiting to receive their letter — which in his view was already sent to Tultchin to reply to him on all that he requested. And already his dear friend Rabbi Avraham Ber — may he live — wrote in a letter to his mother — some three weeks ago — that shortly he would reply to him properly. Therefore there is no need just now to extend. And he requested — if the letter has not yet been sent from them to Tultchin as above — that they hasten to send to Tultchin as above. And praised be G-d — he already sent Rabbi Nachman of Tultchin in their work. And may Hashem make his way successful. And still he has no information from him — for he only just now left Breslov — on Sunday of Parshas Chayei Sara. May Hashem complete for them — to complete their holy desires as befitting — and we do not know what to do — and so forth.

The words of one who loves them in truth — who holds fast in the bonds and cords of your love — and intercedes for you.

Nussun of Breslov.

And he has already informed them — that if they travel here — they should travel via Tirahowitz — for it may be that they will find him there. And he does not know just now at all how Hashem Yisborach will conduct Himself with him. And he throws himself upon Him Yisborach — and upon the merit of our awesome Rebbe — the memory of the righteous and holy one for a blessing. Nafshi y'shoveiv yancheni b'magelei tzedek l'ma'an sh'mo — "He will restore my soul — He will lead me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake."
