Important Chassidic Content: Letter from the Admo”r Rabbi Moshe Leib of Kuzmir. Warsaw, 1933 - Rare letter with important Chassidic content entirely handwritten, signed and stamped by the Admo”r Rabbi Moshe Yehudah Leib of Kuzmir, author of the Divrei Moshe  [son of the Admo”r Rabbi Yerachmiel of Kuzmir, son of the Rebbe Rabbi Ephraim son of the dynasty's patriarch, Rabbi Yechezkel of Kuzmir]. The letter was sent to the renowned Chassid and close associate of the generation's Admo”rim, Rabbi David Perkowitz of Jerusalem. Warsaw, 1933. The letter is divided into two parts, and each is important in its own right. The first part of the letter is bibliographic, discussing the sefarim by three of the  tzaddikim of the Kuzmir dynasty. The first is  Nechmad MiZahav , by the progenitor of the dynasty, Rabbi Yechezkeleh of Kuzmir, whose grandson writes about him in this letter: ”Nothing can be critiqued anywhere in this sefer .” The letter also mentions Imrei Tzvi  by the Admo”r Rabbi Yerachmiel Tzvi of Kuzmir, the Rebbe's father; and Divrei Moshe  (refer to the photocopy), the subject of this letter. Regarding these sefarim , the Rebbe attests, ”G-d willing, you will enjoy them very much”! The second part of the letter is no less interesting and important, bearing rebuke for the addressee for not sending funds to his father, who is starving together with his family. The Rebbe, expressing both love and rebuke, reminds him that the mitzvah of honoring parents is like the mitzvah of tefillin and the rest of the mitzvahs. It is interesting to note that the letter's addressee, the renowned Chassid Rabbi David Perkowitz, was known in his generation as a supporter of leading Admo”rim. Period literature bears letters attesting to this, alongside letters from important Admo”rim. The letter begins and ends with blessings for livelihood, which are also a tremendous segulah coming from the pen of the Kuzmir Rebbe: ”G-d willing, from the parashah ' V'Natnah HaAretz Yevulah' an abundance of life, blessing and success ... Your friend, who seeks your welfare, the small one, Moshe Yehudah [son of] the Rebbe of Kuzmir, ztzukllh”h.” Ten years later, the Rebbe was one of the first Jews in Poland to be martyred in the Treblinka crematoria.
