The importance of being alive spiritually and conveying that vitality to others; a private note stating, "When there is doubt how to conduct oneself, if you will stand firm in your connection to [the Rebbe Rayatz], the Rebbe will find a way to answer you"

No. 578*

This letter was sent to R. Benyamin Gorodetzky, a chassid who headed the office for the aid of refugees which received financial assistance from the Joint Distribution Committee.

B"H, 3 Nissan, 5710

Greetings and blessings,

I acknowledge receipt of your letter from 24-28 Adar. Your perspective — that with regard to obtaining an entry permit for R. Michael [Lipsker to North Africa], it is appropriate to use secure and speedy means, even if it will increase the expenses — is very correct, and certainly you will continue to follow this approach.

Enclosed is a copy of my letter to R. Michael Lipsker.

Nothing was received for March as of yet.

Please give the committee for the branches[324] 50 [dollars] on the account of Merkos L'Inyonei Chinuch.[325]

With wishes for a kosher Pesach holiday,

M. Schneerson

It is not yet official, but there is discussion about [the possibility of Rabbi] Zhaler receiving the Rabbinic position in the synagogue of Montevideo Street.[326] Please inform me of your opinion on this matter and whether you know any details of this Rabbinic position.

   

Notes:

324. (Back to text) [Referring to the different Lubavitch institutions operating in Europe at that time.]

325. (Back to text) [The Rebbe uses a code term rather than the name of the currency.]

326. (Back to text) [See also Letter No. 585* where this point is mentioned.]
