LETTER THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FIVE

With the help of Hashem Yisborach · Wednesday, 15th of Sh'vat — Breslov · Year 5602 (1842)

ToPeace and life and all good — to my beloved son — my dear one — the rabbinical scholar — and so forth — our Teacher the Rabbi Yitzchok — may he live — with all his children who go forth from his loins — may they live. And in particular to his son — his beloved grandson — the exceptional one — the nursling — and so forth — Dovid Tzvi — may he live. May Hashem be with him — and may he rise and flourish in Torah and prayer and good deeds — for length of days and years. And may it be fulfilled in him: "ben chacham y'samach av" — "a wise son gladdens his father" — "ateres z'keinim b'nei vanim" — "the crown of elders is their grandchildren." Not for our sake — only in the power of the holy Elder — and so forth — in whom we shelter — Amen so may it be His will.

He received his letter just now — while they are reclining at the table before Hashem — on this day — the fifteenth of Sh'vat. And praised be G-d — there are some guests with them just now — and some have remained from the past Shabbas. And they rejoiced at his letter — and in particular at the Sefer Likutai Eitzos that they merited to see. Baruch she'hecheyanu v'kiyemanu v'higianu la'z'man hazeh. And now he will receive enclosed here a letter to Tshehrin — and he hopes to Hashem that it will give life to his soul. Even if you already have several hundred letters — even so — they are all good and correct and all needed — and more. For the commerce and trade of a person in this world is great and long and broad — and very very deep — going to very very far places — from above to below and from below to above and to all the corners of the earth. And one must strengthen and wrap the poultice of the holy Torah with countless stratagems and counsels — for "l'chol tichla ra'isi keitz" — "to all end I have seen a limit" — and so forth. And it is impossible to extend just now on this — for he is writing all this in the middle of the above-mentioned meal.

The words of your father — who gives thanks for the past — and requests for the future — to merit and to see His salvation quickly.

Nussun of Breslov.

Overview: Wednesday, 15th of Sh'vat — Breslov — 5602. To Yitzchok and all his household — and in particular to his grandson Dovid Tzvi. He received his letter just now — while they are reclining at the table before Hashem on this day of the 15th of Sh'vat. Praised be G-d there are some guests — and some have remained from the past Shabbas. And they rejoiced at his letter — and in particular at the Sefer Likutai Eitzos which they merited to see. Baruch she'hecheyanu v'kiyemanu v'higianu la'z'man hazeh. He will receive enclosed here a letter to Tshehrin. Even if you already have several hundred letters — they are all good and correct and all needed. For the commerce and trade of a person in this world is great and long and broad — and very very deep — going to very very far places — from above to below and from below to above. And one must strengthen and wrap the poultice of the holy Torah with countless stratagems and counsels — for "l'chol tichla ra'isi keitz." And it is impossible to extend just now — for he is writing all this in the middle of the above-mentioned meal.
