A letter with halachic response, from Rabbi Yitzchak Eizik Rosenbaum to Rabbi Yehoshua Deutsch, Rabbi of Katamon. B"nei Brak, 1987.
A response concerning the laws of "developing and destroying utensils". In conclusion he uncompromisingly summarizes his words: "and his eminence, like other rabbis who permit it, has submitted proofs without substance for a license that blatantly negates an explicit ruling of the Shulchan Aruch, it is a tremendous liability since it concerns an issue of Sabbath desecration, G-d forbid, and could easily be resolved by opening before the Sabbath, thereby dispelling all reason for concern…"
The letter is typewritten, corrected by hand and signed with his signature: "a very close friend who cares for your wellbeing. Yitzchak Eizik Rosenbaum , wishing you a happy Holiday and all the best".
Rabbi Yitzchak Eizik Rosenbaum (1906-2000, Encyclopedia of Chassidut Vol II p. 392-393), son of Rabbi Itamar of Nadvorna. His lifelong diligence for Torah study from early childhood until ripe old age was legendary. He served as Rebbe in Zutchke and Vashkowitz. After surviving the Holocaust, he served as Rebbe in America and in Israel. Many flocked to his doors to receive a blessing or advice, consolation and encouragement. Until the last days of his life, he actively waged the battle for Torah, publicizing notices, essays and many pamphlets.
