Kabbalistic leaf handwritten by Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Shklow, one of the greatest disciples of the Vilna Gaon. 

"וסוד ניסן תיקן משה רבינו עליו השלום ביציאת מצרים, ושלמה המלך עליו השלום תיקן תשרי בבנין בית המקדש… ועדין נשאר בעוונותינו הרבים טבת אשר סמך מלך בבל ותמוז אשר הובקע העיר וזה יתקן משיח צדקנו במהרה בימינו". Kabbalistic leaf by the Gaon Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Shklow.

[1] leaf with [2] handwritten columns, 31 cm. The innovations on this leaf were printed in "Drushim al Seder HaHishtalshelus", in the Sefer "Kitvei Hagramm", 1, pp. 326-327.

The Gaon Rabbi Menachem Mendel ben Rabbi Baruch Bendit Ashkenazi of Shklow (passed away in Shevat 1827) – Rav, Kabbalist and author of many Seforim. Since 1796 was a loyal, beloved and close disciple of the Vilna Gaon, who taught him the depths of the Torah. Was one of the editions of the Seforim of the Vilna Gaon and documented the customs of his great Rav. In 1808, led the immigration of the disciples of the Vilna Gaon to Eretz Yisroel, headed the community of disciples in Safed and renewed the Jewish Ashkenazi Yishuv in Jerusalem. Was laid to rest in the cemetery on the Mount of Olives, close to the resting place of Rabbeinu the holy "Or HaChaim" and was eulogized by the Chassam Sofer. 

Stains, wear to the edges of the leaf, a short cut along the fold line.
