Index of All the Rebbe’s Talks Published
Ever wanted to look up what the Rebbe said about a particular topic? A new index of all the Rebbe’s Sichos, called Sefer Hamaftechos L’Sichos Kodesh compiled by Rabbi Michoel Seligson, went on sale this Hei Teves at Kehos bookstore on Eastern Parkway.
This book is an index to every known Farbrengen and spoken Sicha of the Rebbe from 5695 – 5752 (1935-1992). It is a must have in order to know what the Rebbe said on any topic, and where it can be found.
The Mafteach was compiled by Rabbi Michoel Seligson, who began the twenty- year project to index all of the Rebbe’s publicly spoken words, excluding Maamorim, when the Rebbe became ill in 1992.
Essentially a three-volume set, it has been condensed into one book for ease of use. A particularly thin and strong paper was chosen in order to do so.
Divided into hundreds of alphabetized subjects, each entry in the 1,600 page volume has a short description in accessible Hebrew. A casual reader can roam through fifty-seven years of the Rebbe’s talks, and get a sense of the Rebbe’s opinion on a myriad of topics.
Scholars will appreciate the inclusion of the Rebbe’s commentaries on Tanach, Gemoro and Rambam. Those who will really benefit from this publication are Rabbis, authors, researchers, teachers, students, and parents – in short, anyone who would like to know what the Rebbe has to say on any subject at all.
The sefer is available at Kehos, or online here.
