Famed Letter of Blessing from the Legendary Rabbi Shaya'le Kerestirer
Letter of blessing for health, livelihood and abundance, signed by the holy miracle-worker, Rabbi Shaya'le Kerestirer.
השם יתברך ישמור אתכם וכל אשר לכם
ושיהיה לכם בריאות פרנסה שפע ברכה והצלחה וכל מיני ישועות בכלל כל ישראל
This letter is postmarked Bodrogkeresztúr, 1923.
Rabbi Yeshaya Steiner of Kerestir (1851 – 1925), known by all as Rabbi Shaya'le Kerestrirer, was renowned as a pillar of charity and kindness. His home was open to all, he hosted many guests by his meals and distributed large sums to charity. He was a close disciple of Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch of Liska and was ordained by the admorim of Sanz and Nadvorna. Following the passing of his rabbi, his name spread far and wide as a holy miracle-worker, bringing thousands to his door for help and salvation.
