Written with a raging heart and unhidden admiration by the loyal Gabai, the well-known Chassid Rabbi Yitzchak Ogenstein, the loyal secretary of the Holy Rabbi Nachum Mordechai of Chortkov.

Later, the letter describes the establishment of Chassidism by Or Shivat HaYamim Moron the Holy Baal Shem Tov and after him the Great Maggid of Mezeritch and after him, generation after generation, exalted definitions of our Holy Rabbis , Rabbi Avraham HaMalach, Rabbi Shalom Shachne and after him the Sabba Kaddisha of Ruzhin. The letter continues, reaching his son the Holy Rabbi David Moshe of Chortkov and after him, Rabbi Yisrael and includes extremely rare expressions pertaining to Rabbi Nachum Mordechai – an extremely rare thing among Chassidim towards their Rebbe, and especially the Holy Ruzhin dynasty.
