Manuscript of Rabbi Pinchas Englander, to his community, in which due to pressure from higher authorities, he withdraws his verdict prohibiting a Kohen to ‘dichen’ after publicly shaming a Rav.
[1] page, 10×9 cm. Hebrew and Yiddish.
Letter’s contents: The Rav informs his community about the verdict prohibiting for Shimshon Kohen to ‘dichen’ which he nullifies: לכבוד השר הגדול האדון , וויציג שפאהן שיחי’, והאדון הנכבד הער פאהן שאנקאיי". Though he stresses his level of principle remains for punishing one who shames a Rav in public, "דמין הדין אינו ראוי לא להיות כהן עד זמן שקבע לו רבינו שיחי’, מחמת מעשה שעשה כידוע מן העדים… וכן לא יעשה בישראל".
