Razin DeRazin handwritten by the Kabbalists and hidden Tzaddikim. The Kabbalist the Tzaddik Gaon Rabbi Moshe Yair Weinstock in a letter to the Kabbalist the Tzaddik Gaon Rabbi Yehuda Ze'ev Leibowitz and his implied response, on matters of Teshuva and Emunah after the horrors of the Holocaust. Tamuz, 1973. 


At the beginning of the letter, the Holy Tzaddik Rabbi Moshe writes to his friend the Holy Tzaddik Rabbi Yehuda Ze'ev 'יומא דהילולא דמרן הקדוש בעל האור החיים זיע" תשל"ג'. Rabbi Moshe Yair responds to an previous letter by Rabbi Yehuda Ze'ev, asking him to pray for his sick wife. Later in the letter, Rabbi Moshe Yair refers to a Holocaust survivor who found it difficult to cope with the hardships he had gone through. Rabbi Moshe notes that he had answered him that until he reclaimed him - to bring out the precious from the vile. 

On Rabbi Moshe Yair's lengthy letter, Rabbi Yehuda Ze'ev responds shortly and with hints - as was his holy custom and refers to sources in the words of the Rishonim - about believing in Hashem and the virtue of the Segulah of saying "Amen Yehe Shmei Rabba' which is an indication of adhering to Hashem Yisboroch.  


The Kabbalist the Tzaddik Gaon Rabbi Moshe Yair Weinstock [1899-1982], the grandson and close disciple of the Admor Rabbi David Zvi Shlomo of Lelov - Jerusalem, one of the greatest disicples of Ba'al HaSulam and of the kabbalist Rabbi Chaim Shaul Dweik, the Sadeh, who was also close to Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Hacohen Kook. Authored 83 Seforim, as the years of his life, the style of his compositions is compiling, combining, authoring, and encyclopedic editing between the Talmud, Kabbalah, Chassidism, Halacha and Midrash. In his Seforim he demonstrates his expansive knowledge of the Sifrei Kabbakah that were printed to this day. His goal was to connect Chassidism to Kabbalah. In his comprehensive composition "Siddur HaGeonim VeHaMekubalim VeHaChassidim" he studied the sources of various customs. 

His name was admired among the kabbalists of the recent generation and his varied compositions were published throughout the world of Kabbalah. 

The Kabbalist the Tzaddik Gaon Rabbi  Yehuda Ze'ev Leibowitz [1920-1908] was born in Satmar, Hungary. Studied with his great rabbis of Morgrarten, the Mahari Rosner of Seklehid and the Mahari of Satmar. After the Holocaust, during which he lost his entire family, he immigrated to Tel Aviv, where he lived alone and never remarried. He joined the group of Kabbalists of Rabbi Yehuda Zvi Brandwein of Stretin, Rabbi Moshe Yair Weinstock, Rabbi Yosef Weinstock, Rabbi Yosef Waltuch and others. Gradually he became renowned as a great scholar, who was knowledgeable in Kabbalah as well. In his later years, after he moved to Bnei Brak, he became more famous as a miraculous Mekubal. He was close to the Holy Rabbi Aharon of Belz, Rabbi Yekusiel Yehuda Halberstam of Klausenburg, Rabbi Pinchas Menachem Alter of Gur and all Admorim of Ruzhin. Many go to pray at his grave in Bnei Brak.
