Description

Letter from [Hi]llel b. Yeshuʿa to Shela b. Bū l-Khayr ha-Kohen. In Hebrew. Dating: Late, probably no earlier than 14th century. The sender had left the addressee (and someone named Yosef?) in charge of his property in Jerusalem, so that it would be ready for him upon his return, or if he wished to send something there. The purpose of this letter is to chastise the addressee, who has apparently violated the terms of the arrangement. (Information in part from Goitein’s index card.)
