Class One. This class deals with Perek 11 of the Previous Rebbe’s Ma’amar באתי לגני. The discussion centers around the עבודה of יראה, קבלת עול and מסירת נפש of the צבאות השם. When the King faces a מלחמת נצחון his מדת הנצח is aroused and he pulls out all the stops: Engaging in the war…

Class One. These two Ma’amarim (the previous one and this one) are very similar, but there are minor differences. We obviously learned both Ma’amarim.

Second (Motzoei Shabbos) version of Basi Ligani 5733, is almost identical to the first one (of Shabbos day). This time we did the whole Maamar in one class.
