Kuntress Ketz HaYamin from the book Nachala L'Yisrael, by Rabbi Yechiel Michel Hibner Av Beit Din of Nizniow. [Lemberg, 1876].
First publication of an article on the topic of calculations of the Redemption, by the Rebbe Tzemach Tzedek - "Nachala L'Yisrael - Ketz HaYamin, a blessing left and found in the possessions of the holy Rabbi…Menachem Mendel of Lubavitch, disciple of the rabbi and also his grandson. (Some contest that these are the words of the author of the Tanya himself, the truth shall be received from whoever said it".
[4] leaves. 24.5 cm. Fair condition. Wear and worming.
The book Nachala L'Yisrael was printed by the author in separate kuntressim. This kuntress is especially rare. [Evidently, due to the sensitivity of the topic of calculations of the Redemption and because of the well-known rule that such matters should not be publicized]. The renowned Chabad researcher R' Yehoshua Mondshine, printed this article in his book Migdal Oz (Kfar Chabad, 1980, pp. 492-503), and he writes that he did not find even one copy with these rare leaves in any Israeli library. Only in the Lubavitch library in the US, two copies of these leaves exist and they differ one from another. See enclosed material.
