A copy of a special and unknown letter to his followers and friends in Hungary from Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac Yehuda Yechiel of Kamarna, author of the Heichal HaBracha asking for help to print the Chumashim.
To my dear honored brethren, … and my beloved supreme friends who are close and are bound by true love in an inseparable way forever and ever in the soul of the plane folks and religious who live in the state of Hungary, and who have supported and helped us for more than thirty years …."
The letter concludes with abundant blessings for those who support the printing of the Chumash and to those that will purchase it. The Chumashim will stand by and will act a keepsake……
”I’m sure that all those that will have these Chumashim in their house will have full of blessings, he will be spared from anything bad ….and all visitors will be blessed like at the house of Avraham Avinu.”
The Rav of Karmarna started printing the Heichal Habracha Chumish in 1864.
There is one other famous letter to his Chassidim in Hungary letter printed in the chumash. Indeed this was bound in a volume of the first edition Chumash Heical Habracha belonging to the Chasid R’ Naftali Reisman in Nyirbator, Hungary.
