Exchange with R. Elkanah Schwartz about Reconvening "Chavrusa" (1967)

Dear Rav Lamm: I hope this note finds you and yours in the best of health. You might recall the wonderful moments of “Chavrusas” of a few years ago. One of the moving spirits was Rabbi Jacobovits. I wish to recommend a reconvening of the group, but not for just another Tzaychem L’Shalom. During his tenure on these shores, Rabbi Jacobovits undoubtedly drew some impressions which he would be interested in sharing with a few yichedey segulah, outside the rigidity of the established organizations. (I base this remark not on knowledge but on assumption.) Should you and he be interested, I would be happy to forward the “Chavrusas” list. I leave this matter to your respected judgement. Looking forward to good news on all fronts, I remain Sincerely yours, Elkanah Schwartz

Letter from Elliot Gertel Enclosing Published Article (1973)

April 26, 1973 Mr. Elliot B. Gertel 209 Ruggles Columbia University New York, N.Y. 10027 Dear Elliot: Many, many thanks to you for sending me your splendid essay, which I found most illuminating. I read it during חו״ל and it added to my enjoyment. I am sending along reprints of three of my articles that have some relevance to your theme. The lack of time to comment on your paper in detail makes this the best way for an exchange of ideas – short of actually meeting. I shall indeed be pleased to meet with you and renew our acquaintance. Meanwhile, my very best wishes to your parents and grandparents. Cordially, Rabbi Norman Lamm NL:cw Enc.
