Kol Menachem Devarim Now Available in Hebrew!

Thanks to a collaboration between Chabad philanthropists Levi Leviev and Meyer Gutnick, the second Chumash with “Toras Menachem” in Hebrew rolled off the press this week, in time for Devorim.

The Hebrew “Leviev Edition” was adapted from the much loved “Gutnick Chumash,” bringing the Rebbe's Torah “outwards” to many communities beyond Chabad.

The current volume, Sefer Devorim, contains literally hundreds of Sichos, both in Nigleh and Chassidus, in a flowing, contemporary Hebrew, something that has long been awaited by Shluchim around the world.
