1000s of Alter Rebbe’s Shulchan Aruchs Distributed

As the 200th yahrzeit of the Alter Rebbe approaches (24 Teves), the program to distribute his Shulchan Aruch HaRav continues. Thousands of sets of the Shulchan Aruch have been handed out in recent weeks in yeshivos and kollelim around Eretz Yisrael as well as to organized study groups of his works.

The impetus behind the operation is the ‘שערי הוראה’ organization, as it realized too many shuls and batei medrashim are missing the Shulchan Aruch.

Ladaat.info reports a number of philanthropists have undertaken to fund the operation towards spreading the Torah of the Bal HaTanya.

    That is wonderful! It is great that they are making these available.

    Now in America, for those who are more fluent in English, is there any thought to reprint the Hebrew/English volumes? Most of the are out of print right now and I am sure many people would be interested in buying the ones that have been out of print.

    Volumes 1, 3 and 4 of the English translation of part of O”Ch are so rare that they are offered for 100s of dollars online if you can find them at all. I managed to find a copy of volume 1 at a reasonable price but all the way from Argentina–and it was the only copy of volume 1 I have seen.
