The October Riots - Historic-Chassidic Letter Handwritten by the Birkat Avraham of Slonim
Family-historic-Chassidic letter, entirely handwritten and signed by the Admo"r Rabbi Avraham Weinberg (III) of Slonim, author of Birkat Avraham. Sent to his wife and children in Tiberias during the Rebbe's stay abroad, during the October riots of 1933. Cheshvan/Kislev 1933.
This letter was written at the beginning of the winter of 1933, in the second half of the month of Cheshvan or the beginning of Kislev 1933, during the Birkat Avraham's long stay in Baranowitz from Iyar 1933 to Adar 1934. The letter was written against the backdrop of the October riots of 1933, when the British began to deport illegal Jewish immigrants from the Land of Israel; the rebbe expresses his concern and fears for his wife and children.
The Admo"r writes as follows: "... I am very agitated by the news in the press about the situation in the Land of Israel, especially about Imma's health and that of the children on days like these. On the one hand, I see the hashgachah that I did not travel, as per the news that they would not allow the boat with the immigrants to come to the Land of Israel, and that they are in Port Said. I can just imagine my condition and yours if I had been on that boat. Yet you can certainly imagine my general mood with respect to you, especially the mood of Imma and the children. I wanted to send a telegram today, but I realized it would not accomplish anything. I beg you to write to me twice a week ... Decide among yourselves if it is necessary to send a telegram to me so that I come back, and I will look no further and travel home immediately. Although from now until Chanukah I am supposed to remain here due to the reasons I wrote ... It is hard for me to write about anything else with this news that is in the papers. Your father, who seeks your well-being, awaiting good news, Avraham."
