Shanah Tovah Letter of Rebbe Shlomo Halberstam of Bobov –Brooklyn, Tishrei 1958

Letter of Rebbe Shlomo Halberstam of Bobov. Brooklyn, Erev Shabbat Shuvah [Tishrei], 1958.


Typewritten, with signature of the Rebbe.
Sent to R. Yechiel Reinhold. The Rebbe thanks him for his "important gift…", and blesses him and his family profusely: "May my blessings be granted to him and his family, and may G-d send His holy assistance with complete bountiful life, peace and health, and may they have much satisfaction from all their offspring, and may he enjoy much good always".
He further blesses him and his family with a "good and happy year" and a blessing "for our prayers to be accepted".


Rebbe Shlomo Halberstam (the second) of Bobov
(1907-2000), the Divrei Shlomo, prominent rebbe in recent times. Son of Rebbe Bentzion Halberstam, the Kedushat Tzion (son of the first Rebbe of Bobov, Rebbe Shlomo Halberstam, grandson of the Divrei Chaim of Sanz). In 1931, his father moved from Bobov to Trzebinia, and appointed him as rabbi in his place in Bobov.

Rebbe Shlomo assisted his father in directing the dozens of branches of the large network of yeshivas "Etz Chaim – Bobov" in Galicia. After the Holocaust, he reached the United States where he re-established the Bobov Chassidut, founding communities, yeshivas and Torah institutions in the United States and worldwide.
