'If we could put religion on its place we would surely have had to protest vigorously and torment the sins that stumble the many' - an important letter from Rabbi Ovadia Yosef ztl.

A letter in the handwriting and signature of Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, was sent to Rabbi Elazar Yehuda Waldinberg, the owner of 'Tzitz Eliezer', on the matter he discussed in his book - to remove kosher certificates from hotels that do not insist on a six-hour separation between meat and milk. Rabbi Ovadia Yosef rules not to do so, for the reason that hotel owners will come to ease additional prohibitions, if kosher certificates are removed for that reason. Throughout the letter, Rabbi Ovadia often praises and praises the genius the 'Tzitz Eliezer', Although in the body of things he disagrees with him. For more details, see a description in Hebrew.

[2] p. Official stationery of Rabbi Ovadia Yosef as 'Rishon LeZion Chief Rabbi of Israel'. Very good condition.
