Item Overview

Description:

Couple of Copies of the First Edition of the Chumash Tehillim and Tanya (Sefer Chitas) - Kfar Chabad, 1981

"Sefer Chitas - Chumash, Tehillim and Tanya to be studied daily" - as instructed by the Rebbe the Rayatz and encouraged by the Rebbe. Published by the initiative of Rabbi Zeev Dov Slonim, and the Rebbe's encouragement and instructions (see below). Printed by Kehat, Kfar Chabad, Israel, first edition - 1981. 


The Rebbe's response to the publisher Rabbi Zeev Dov Slonim with instructions for the prtinting of this edition, from Menachem Av 1980: 

"ע"ד [=על דבר] חת"ת בספר א' [=אחד] - הרי שיעור החומש משתנה משנה לשנה, ואולי כוונתו לכרכם כולם יחד כמו שהם (ובשערים נפרדים) - וא"כ [=אם כן], נכון הדבר.

ליקוט ע"ד חת"ת וחשיבותם - בסופו ובשער נפרד.

ובכל אופן צ"ל נדפס (ג"כ בסופו דהתניא) - המורה שיעור וכו'. בראש הכרך הקדמה קצרה ע"ד מטרת ההו"ל דכהנ"ל.

החומש צ"ל, כפשוט, בצירוף ת"א ופרש"י והפטרות".

[Regarding Chumash, Tehillim, and Tanya (Chit'as) in one volume - Since the portion of the Chumash changes from year to year, perhaps his intention is to bind them all together as they are (but with separate title pages) - and if so, the idea is proper.

The Likut regarding Chitas and its importance - should be included at the end and with a separate title page.

In any case, the Guide for the daily portions etc., should be printed (also at the end of the Tanya).At the beginning of the volume, there should be a brief foreword concerning the purpose of the publication, as mentioned above.

The Chumash must include, simply, the Targum Onkelos  and Rashi's commentary (Parshiy), along with the Haftarah portions]


Stains and minor blemishes. Good overall condition.
