The Last Word He Wrote
TeshuvahTorah learning
Rav Yeshaya Mordechai was niftar in the middle of writing the final teshuvah in Lachmei Todah. The question before him concerned a Sefer Torah written in strangely shaped letters.
The last word he wrote was kosher when he collapsed.
His son and successor, Rav Yisroel Binyomin, who published his father's sefer, completed the teshuvah. He ruled that the Sefer Torah was kosher to use, because such letters have a genuine tradition.
