Rosh HaShanah 5659
One who contributes from his wealth for the purpose of writing or publishing a sefer of a Tzaddik –
Behold, at any given time, and in any corner of the world, that a person studies from this sefer, the Tzaddik [on high] evokes merit on behalf of the donor through whom the sefer was disseminated.
—The Rebbe, Igrot Kodesh, vol 2
Rosh Hashanah 5659
by Rabbi Shalom DovBer Schneersohn of Lubavitch
On the second day of Rosh Hashanah in the year 5659 (1898), Rabbi Shalom Dovber Schneersohn, the fifth Rebbe of Chabad-Lubavitch, delivered a Chasidic discourse that marked the beginning of a series of teachings. During the High Holidays, Rabbi Shalom DovBer delivered two additional discourses, each expanding on themes introduced in the first. He continued this series throughout Sukkot and in the weeks that followed, ultimately delivering a total of eight discourses.
