Our people reside in countries with merciful monarchs who support people in each keeping their own faith. No longer is there the coercion of previous generations when, as our parents recounted, we were forbidden to circumcise our sons, observe the Sabbath, and the like. Furthermore, those who stand fast by their faith are appreciated, and their deeds on our behalf are true and honest.
See how the monarch of Kushta, may God bless it, our glorious lord the King, created schools for the study of wisdom and medicine. Note that he imposed a special tax to warn that our holy Torah be observed, on Sabbaths and Festivals, concerning prayers and the like, and also ordered that there be a shochet to slaughter fowl and beef so that they not err and eat unclean meats.
