Letter from the heads of the Safed and Tiberias communities to the great minister, Rabbi Rephael Farhi - minister of finance in Damascus, about the earthquake in Safed and Tiberias.
An earthquake struck Safed and Tiberias and desperately hurt the local Jewish communities. It took the Jewish settlement there many years to recover from the ruin of that earthquake and the damage it caused.
