A Letter from the Mother of the Chazon Ish to her Son Who Was Murdered in the Holocaust
A postcard from Rebbetzin Leah Rasha Karelitz, written on Tuesday of the portion of Beshalach 1937, to her youngest son Rabbi Moshe Karelitz, a Dayan in Vilna, editor of the important Torani journal ‘Knesset Yisrael’ and author of the book ‘Or Chadash’, comments and glosses on Sha’arei Teshuva. In the letter she mentions “Avraham Yeshua” – the Chazon Ish? The entire letter is in Yiddish. | Rebbetzin Leah Rasha Karelitz, wife of Rabbi Shemaryahu Yosef Karelitz Rabbi of Kossova and a direct descedent of Rabbi Aryeh Leib HaLevi Epstein, author of the ‘Pardes’, one of the foremost Rabbis and Kabbalists of 18th century Eastern Europe. Mother of a royal family of which all her sons and sons-in-law were great Torah scholars, known throughout Lithuania and in Israel, led by the Chazon Ish. | Overall condition: Very good.
