To the honor of the President of Israel — the delight of my heart — Mr.

S.Z. Shazar To the honor of the President of Israel — the delight of my heart — Mr. S.Z. Shazar — great of understanding and deep of thought — who strives and seeks to find the waters from which the holy faith in these our generations will grow, for all who come into the world — a strong and correct faith, a complete, pure, clear and lucid faith.

And may they all become one band, to know Hashem and to serve Him in unison. Abundant peace. Today I received his heartfelt blessing together with the bank draft in the amount of one hundred Israeli liras from the 7th of Nissan 5727. I exult and rejoice with all my heart — that I have found grace and exceptional favor in your good and pleasant heart, and your goodness and your kindness have grown toward me so greatly. From the very depths of my heart I express to the honor of the loftiness of your exalted soul — gratitude upon gratitude and many thanks and blessings for the wonders of your love toward me.

My eyes and my heart are spread before Hashem in prayer and supplication — that He grace you with grace and kindness and hasten and quicken your salvation, and heal you with a complete healing speedily. And may He guard and save you from all kinds of illness and pain, Heaven forbid. And may He magnify your peace and the peace of your household — for a long, good, healthy and fresh life, through the merit of the Nachal Noavaya Mekor Chuchma of Uman, Amen, so may it be His will.

Through my many sins, Hashem has sent upon me for my own benefit harsh sufferings and immense pains in my legs and in my innards — may it not befall you. I lie in bed and weep before Hashem over the nullification of Torah and prayer. I also do not merit to go to the synagogue and to the mikveh as is my custom — to immerse every day in the mikveh. I ask you greatly — to strengthen yourself to pray that Hashem have mercy upon me and send me speedily a complete healing from Heaven. And may all the judgments be sweetened upon us and upon Israel. We must believe that we too are inscribed in the heart of the true Tzadik — and he knows our pains and is engaged in our healing and our salvation from generation to generation, forever.

Trust in Hashem and pray to Him — and strengthen yourself greatly in the joy of the festival, in which Hashem performed for us awesome miracles and wonders contrary to nature. For now we must strengthen ourselves even more in joy — which is the healing for all the blows and all the ailments — especially on this holy festival.

For on the Seder night of Pesach, all the ten kinds of melody are aroused to sing — from which come all the healings in body and soul for us and for all Israel. Amen, so may it be His will. With the blessing of a kosher and joyful festival. Yisroel son of Odesser
