20. Lima'an Da'as (למען דעת כל עמי הארץ) 5713 (Achdus Hashem)

20. Lima’an Da’as 5713 This classic Ma’amar (that apparently has some history) is presented here.It is considered the “Rebbe’s version” of the classic “Veyada’at 5757” of the Rebbe RaShaB; but this is so different with so much more, it can hardly be seen as anything other than an original Ma’amar with loose similarities to the...

עשרה שיושבים ה'תשמ"ב 1

Based on the Previous Rebbe’s Ma’amar from 5688. Just as ten Jews are needed for a Minyan and the effect reveals the 13 attributes of Mercy, Similarly, when one learns with ten Jews it reveals the 13 attributes of the interpretations of Torah (Torah SheBa’al Peh)
