Letter to the Rabbis Members of the Kollel in the Ponovezh Yeshiva Regarding Praying with a Minyan by Rabbi Shach. Bnei Brak, 1977
"I turn to you, so that all of you to join together as one to strengthen yourselves in ascending in Torah and fear of G-d and to strengthen prayer with a minyan in the yeshiva." Letter by Rabbi Elazar Menachem Shach. Bnei Brak, 1977.
Specifications: [1] leaf, official paper leaf. In the handwriting and with the stamp and signature of Rabbi Elazar Menachem Mann Shach. 17x25 cm. And along with it [1] leaf, paper, 14x19 cm, with a typewritten copy of the handwritten letter, with the addition of several lines.
Unique Features: In this letter, Rabbi Elazar Menachem Shach turns to the members of the Kollel, and encourages them to pray with a minyan in the yeshiva. He writes about himself ... "I was a young man and have grown old, and I grew up in yeshivas my entire life, and I saw how my rabbis were punctilious about prayer, especially for those in the yeshiva framework, for them to pray in the yeshiva with a minyan, and the prayer is one of the foundations of the yeshiva, and prayer is more desirable when one prays in the place he learns, and the wisdom of the Torah does not have any permanence if there is any disrespect toward the commandment of prayer, and of course prayer together with a large group of Torah students is a completely different prayer ...." He also notes that prayer with fervor will cause a Kiddush Hashem in the entire neighborhood.
Background: Rabbi Elazar Menachem Mann Shach (1898-2002) leader of the Lithuanian (yeshiva) community for almost thirty years, transmitter of the yeshiva tradition from the great rabbis of pre-Holocaust Lithuania to the yeshiva world in the Land of Israel, Rosh Yeshiva of Ponovezh and author of the series of books Avi Ezri.
