Description
   Letter by R. Mordecai b. Gedaliah Moshe Goldman (1906-1979), Admor of Zevil. After being Admor in Zevil he emigrated to Erez Israel in 1926. He became rebbe in 1950 and established a yeshiva Bet Mordecai in Jerusalem. His views and opinions were voiced with rigor and forthrightness. He never used electricity, not even on weekdays, as it was produced with Sabbath desecration. He was buried on the Mount of Olives and succeeded by his son, R. Abraham.
