The name of the recipient of this letter was not released.B"H, 10 Nissan, 5710Greetings and blessings,
You are certainly aware of the concept stated in Likkutei Torah, the conclusion of Parshas Naso (Bamidbar, p. 29b), that [it is customary to] give a present in honor of the groom and bride.
For understandable reasons,[343] I did not attend the wedding and for the same reason I was delayed in [sending the present] as well. Surely you will not be offended by this.
Enclosed with this letter you will receive a [copy of] Likkutei Torah as "a derashah gift."[344] May it be G-d's will that the blessings of my revered father-in-law, the Rebbe, hk"m, be fulfilled for you and your wife in their fullness, with abundant good in both a physical and spiritual sense.
With greetings and with wishes for a kosher and happy Pesach holiday,
Rabbi Menachem SchneersonNotes:
- (Back to text) [The proximity of the wedding to the passing of the Rebbe Rayatz.]
- (Back to text) [It was customary for a groom to deliver a Torah address before his wedding and he would be given gifts in recognition of his erudition.]
