Interesting letter handwritten and signed by Rabbi "Moshe Ladinski – Rosh Metivta at the Chafetz Chaim Yeshiva in Radin". Radin, summer 1934. Written within the first year following the death of the Chafetz Chaim, regarding the difficult physical state of the yeshiva. He expounds upon several of Chazal sayings related to giving charity and supporting Torah. At the end of the letter, he cites a thought which he told to the Chafetz Chaim explaining the verse in the Book of Yonah: "'And the men rowed to return to the dry land and they could not' – At the end of the Exile, all G-d fearing people will gather strength to support our holy Torah and it will be difficult for them". He brings the rejoinder of the Chafetz Chaim: "So explained the Vilna Gaon, that Yonah's entire vision alludes to Knesset Yisrael". [This saying in the name of the Chafetz Chaim is not well-known and is first published here]. Rabbi Moshe Landinski (1862-1938), head of the Radin Yeshiva, a leading Torah scholar, disciple of the Volozhin Yeshiva. In 1900, the Chafetz Chaim brought him to serve as head of the Radin Yeshiva, a position he held for almost 40 years. A dear and close friend of the Chafetz Chaim, with whom he would consult on all matters pertaining to the yeshiva and to public issues. In 1905, at the time the Chafetz Chaim founded the Kollel Kodshim in Radin, he appointed Rabbi Moshe to head the kollel and he delivered there discourses twice a week. He was renowned for his noble character and for his love for his fellow-beings. His great love for his students is also apparent in this letter, as he writes, "The situation in the yeshiva weighs upon me…It is difficult for me to see their pain…". After a short while, in 1935, Rabbi Moshe Landinski traveled to England to raise funds for the yeshiva. [2] pages, 19.5 cm. 33 handwritten lines. Good condition.
