Or Torah

The Maggid of Mezeritch on Parshas HaShavua

The teachings of R’ Dov Ber, the Maggid of Mezeritch — successor of the Baal Shem Tov and teacher of the Alter Rebbe — on the whole Chumash, opened in English for the first time. The sefer the Rebbe Rashab kept in his desk drawer beside the Tanya: fully vocalized Hebrew, a phrase-by-phrase intralinear translation, and an elucidation that names the sources and traces the Kabbalistic framework of every teaching.
