Class 12

12. Letter 27-28. Letter 27 and 28 both deal with the issue of histalkus (passing) of a Tzadik. The difference is that Letter 27 deals with the histalkus of a Rebbe (Neshama Klalis) while 28 deals with the histalkus of a Tzadik. The contents of the respective letters reflect this. Letter 27 was written to the community on the histalkus of Rem Mendel Horodoker (he passed away in Tzfas). Letter 28 was written to Reb Levi Yitzchock of Berditchov on the passing of his son Reb Meir.
