Letter from Rabbi Aharon Cohen, Rosh Yeshiva of Chevron
Early letter in the handwriting and with the signature of Rabbi Aharon Cohen, rosh yeshiva of Chevron in Jerusalem.
The letter is addressed to the lawyer Mordechai Buxbaum, in which he thanks him for a donation to the 'spiritual fund whose goal is to raise the prestige and honor of the Torah in our yeshiva,' and he blesses him that Hash-m fulfill all his heart's desires for the good. His signature is in the margins of the letter.
Rabbi Aharon Cohen [1904-1961] immigrated to the Land of Israel in 1924 together with the members of the Slobodka yeshiva which settled in Chevron. In 1934, after his father-in-law's passing, he began to give lectures in the Chevron yeshiva, and after a while was appointed to the role of rosh yeshiva.
[1] leaf official stationery of 'Chevron Knesset Yisrael in Jerusalem, Land of Israel' yeshiva. 22x29 cm. Fold marks. Tear in the bottom margins, fine condition.
