Letter to Dr. Philip Birnbaum about R. Lamm's Speech at Meal (1966)

Dear Dr. Birnbaum: Please forgive my answering your Hebrew note in English, but this is being dictated slightly before my leaving for the South. Permit me to express to you my deep thanks for reacting to my Seudah talk with the kind of care for detail and accuracy that is so characteristic of you and your scholarship. Of course, your comments are completely correct in pointing to Rashi as the source of the observation of the author of "Hidushei-Hi-Rim."Warmest regards,Cordially yours,RABBI NORMAN LAMMNL/le

Letter to R. Joseph Lookstein about His Homiletical Essays (1968)

Dear Rabbi Lookstein: Many, many thanks for sending me your splendid new volume of homiletical essays. Reading through them evoked a good deal of nostalgia from me for the "good old days" when you trained me – a nostalgia mingled with the same admiration which has not diminished, but rather increased through the years. I do hope that "Faith and Destiny of Man" is but the first of a series of similar volumes. Once again, therefore, my thanks and congratulations, together with my wishes to you and Mrs. Lookstein, and all your family, for a happy and kosher Passover. Cordially yours, Rabbi Norman Lamm
