Shliach Recaps the Likkutei Sichos

By COLlive reporter

Thirty-nine volumes constitute the largest and most comprehensive publication of the Rebbe‘s teachings and they are all now available online – as a summary.

The renowned Likkutei Sichos series brings together the Rebbe’s sichos as they were proofread by him and published over 40 years of the Rebbe’s leadership.

Each of these “Collected Talks” contains both the scope and the core of the Rebbe’s teachings, and is the most authoritative source text for the Rebbe’s unique, original, and often revolutionary explanation of Judaism.

These teachings include ideas in Jewish philosophy and theology, commentary on biblical, talmudical and kabbalistic texts, perspectives on world events, and moral and practical directives.

Because the publishing team working on the series has varied over the years, the table of contents of Likkutei Sichos volumes were written in different styles and lengths.

A few years ago, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Feldman began working on writing a full, accurate and approachable summary of each sicha.

He has done so from his home in Greenwich, Connecticut, where he serves as the Director of Adult Education at Chabad Lubavitch of Greenwich.

In between classes and lectures, Feldman diligently studied and wrote a Table of Contents and detailed index for each of the lessons from Likkutei Sichos.

His goal was to give the learner an overview and brief introduction on what the Rebbe discusses in the sicha, the question and answer, the order of delivery and the practical lesson in each sicha.

Feldman has finally concluded the years long work and has launched all the information for the public’s free access on the website likuteysichos.com.
