 A year after this exchange began Rosenzweig met and fell in love with Rosenstock-Huessy’s wife, Margrit or Gritli. Rosenstock-Huessy accepted, though not without suffering (Stahmer, 2006), the love that had developed between his best friend and his wife, and years later he would confide to his friend and devotee Georg Müller that Margrit had been Rosenzweig’s muse throughout the writing of The Star of Redemption, and, more precisely, that Rosenzweig’s understanding of revelation, which plays such a decisive role in that same work, came directly out of his experience of his love for Gritli. This has been borne out in the relatively recent publication of Rosenzweig’s letters to Gritli (Briefe an Gritli) which has been the biggest event in Rosenzweig scholarship since Edith Rosenzweig’s edition of his Briefe in  1935.[8]
