Letter and Special Prayer for the Coronation of "Our King His Majesty Alexander III" Moscow 1882
Letter to Moses Montefiore and a special prayer upon the coronation of His Majesty Emperor Alexander III. Handwritten by Rabbi Chaim Berlin. Moscow, 1882.
Specifications: [2] leaves, paper. 22x28 cm. The letter and prayer were handwritten by Rabbi Chaim Berlin.
Content: On May 15, 1882, King Alexander III and Empress Maria Feodorovna were crowned. Sir Montefiore asked Rabbi Chaim Berlin to gather the students of the Talmud Torah in Moscow and hold a special prayer session in honor of the coronation. He even sent a donation to distribute among the participants. Rabbi Chaim Berlin fulfilled this request and, as described in his letter, gathered everyone in the Great Synagogue. "They prayed the prayer that I arranged, before the Holy Ark, according to the copy included here."
Unique features: This lot includes a letter from Rabbi Chaim Berlin with the order of prayer he authored. It is written in pleasant, flowery language and is full of praise for the emperor. It also notes the number of students who participated and the amount of money that they each received from Sir Montefiore's donation.
All the text is written in the pleasant, organized hand of Rabbi Chaim Berlin who was then serving as rabbi in Moscow.
Condition: Fine condition, fold marks, tiny hole in the letter and the leaf with the prayer text.
