I want to tell you a little bit of the
history of the publication of the safar.
The was not able to publish it in his
lifetime.
The wrote it about in the year 1911,
1912, 1913.
He couldn't publish it.
Why? We don't know exactly. All we know
is that in 1929 in Tel Aviv theim's
son-in-law
the author of
published CPishua
I believe the was still alive but I
don't know if the knew about it he says
that his father-in-law was not able to
publish
because of censorship
but we don't know more than that
says this is the first time sisa Yeshua
appears available for the Jewish people
in 1929.
So I'm trying to put together the safer.
So I wanted to do research is you know
really what was the censorship issue
that's a mighty long time for the safer
not to be available.
So I asked around some of the experts
somebody told me no there's an earlier
edition of cishua available on eBay.
Okay. So I bought it. I don't know it
cost like $200.
It was published in 1921
by by Rabbi Yo Mayor Jacobson, a rabbi
in a suburb in Boston.
He writes he's aim
he learned in Raden. He published it
with a Yiddish translation
and he writes things he heard from the
about awaiting the coming of Msiah. So
it must be that
son-in-law in Tel Aviv, he didn't know
about what was published in Boston.
Okay, why would he know? That was in
1921.
So I'm doing more and more research, you
know, I put in Hebrew books
um
there's something strange. What what
exactly was a censorship issue?
