Letter signed by the Rachmistrivka rebbes - R. Avraham Dov and R. David Twersky. Jerusalem, 1941.
Receipt upon receiving funds and a blessing: "We pray for all the Jewish people for salvation and complete Redemption soon".
The dynasty of the Rachmistrivka Rebbes had an interesting tradition of two rebbes simultaneously leading a mutual court; together they received those who came for blessings and both read kvittlach and jointly led the tisch (Chassidic gatherings). This custom began after the death of Rebbe Yochanan of Rachmistrivka in 1895. His son Rebbe Ze'ev Twersky of Rachmistrivka (died in 1937) led the followers together with his brother Rebbe Menachem Nachum of Rachmistrivka (1840-1936). In 1926, Rabbi Menachem Nachum immigrated to Jerusalem and in 1935 Rebbe Ze'ev settled in Jerusalem as well. After Rebbe Menachem Nachum died in 1936, both his sons were appointed as rebbes together - Rebbe Avraham Dov Twersky (1865-1945) and his brother Rebbe David (1872-1951). Rabbi David is the father of Rebbe Yochanan of Rachmistrivka-Jerusalem, and grandfather of Rebbe Yisrael Mordechai, the father of Rebbe David of Rachmistrivka-Jerusalem.
This is a letter written on the official stationery of both rebbes, Rabbi "Avraham Dov and David sons of R. Menachem Nachum of Rachmistrivka" with the full signatures of both holy brothers. A rare letter from the short time the two served together as rebbes.
Official stationery, 26 cm. Good condition. Torn filing holes.
