[ה'תשל"ג]

שלום וברכה!

נישואי תערובות – זהו:

1) אסון בפועל –

לשניהם

. ובאם יש

איזה

יחס הוגן מזו לזה (ולא רק חשק

זמני

שבודאי יחלוף

) לא יַמשיך את השני לחיי

אסון

תמיד כל הימים (אפילו באם השני רוצה לאבד עצמו לדעת).

2) זהו סיוע

ישיר

למטרת היטלער ימ"ש – לחסל את עם בנ"י (אלא שנעשה "בכפיפת משי").

ע"פ הנ"ל מובנת דעתי – שעליהם (בתור הורים ובתור בנ"י בכלל) לעשות

כל התלוי בהם

שלא להניח בתם תי'

להרוס, ר"ל, את חיי'

,

ולהזיק את כל עם בנ"י ג"כ

.

אולי כדי שתסע לאהקת"ו.

לדבר אתי פא"פ – אין כל צורך כלל.

[5733]

Shalom u'Vrachah!

Intermarriage is: 1) an actual disaster—for both parties. And if there is any genuine relationship between them (and not just a temporary desire—which will certainly pass), one should not lead the other into a life of constant disaster (even if the other wants to destroy themselves).

2) It is direct assistance to Hitler's goal—may his name be erased—to eliminate the Jewish people (except that now it is done with silk gloves). According to the above, my opinion is clear—that they (as parents and as Jews in general) must do everything in their power not to allow their daughter, G‑d forbid, to destroy her life and harm the entire Jewish people as well.

Perhaps she should travel to Ahakat V. To speak with me face-to-face—there is absolutely no need at all.


Summary

The Rebbe strongly warns against intermarriage, describing it as a personal tragedy and a threat to the Jewish people. He urges parents to act decisively to prevent such outcomes and stresses that direct intervention with him is unnecessary.
