Lot 213:
“Seder HaYom” with practices for all hours of the day, Shabbat and weekday, with details about what to do during every hour, sent to students of the Toldot Aharon yeshiva in 1986. By Rabbi Avraham Yitzhak Rata, when he was resting in Switzerland. Because of his great weakness, he dictated the letter to the manager of the Rav Aharon Steinberger institute. At the end he signed his name. The letter sheds light on one of the most extreme Chassidic groups. Rabbi Avraham Yitzhak Kahan (1914-1996), an important Admor and founder of Toldot Aharon: after his father-in-law died, most of his students crowned Rav Avraham and followed him, and the movement flowered, with centers in Beit Shemesh and New York. Considered one of the great opponents of Zionism. 1 lined paper, 15x21cm, written on both sides. Given in the envelope it was sent in. Signs of folding, stains.
