Letter of Recommendation from Rabbi Aharon Perlow, Son of the "Yenuka of Stolin"
Rare letter handwritten by Rabbi Aharon Perlow, second son of Rabbi Yisrael Perlow, known by all as the "Yenuka" of Stolin.
The letter is a recommendation to a yeshiva student who had plans to immigrate to Eretz Yisrael.
Rabbi Aharon Perlow (1886 – 1942) was a remarkable scholar and a pious, humble leader. He shunned honor and prestige, refusing to succeed his illustrious father’s position following his death. Instead, he relocated to Warsaw where his home served as the address for many men of broken spirits, despite his astute poverty. During the Holocaust he secretly supported the underground and called for a revolt.
