A Sefer Is Better Than a Photocopy…
Chabadinfo in collaboration with Beis Moshiach Magazine presents: From the Rebbe’s Pen, a series featuring a weekly letter or ma’aneh (response) from the Rebbe MH”M • On 3 Kislev 5732 (1971), The gabaim of the shul in 770 reported to the Rebbe that they intended to distribute photocopies of each week’s “Chassidishe Parsha” to be studied • Full Article
On 3 Kislev 5732 (1971), The gabaim of the shul in 770 reported to the Rebbe that they intended to distribute photocopies of each week’s “Chassidishe Parsha” — the maamarim of Torah Ohr and Likkutei Torah — to be studied. The Rebbe responded with the following:
לכאורה מתאים יותר שיהי’ (ויחלקו) הס’ בשלמותו:
1) אותן ההוצאות ואולי עוד פחות (ובפרט – הטרחא), 2) לפעמים צ”ל עיון לפנ”ז או לאחריו – להבנה יותר, 3) מכובד יותר, 4) בטל החשש שהקונ’ וועט זיך וואַלגערן כו’ לאחר השבת דפ’ הנלמדת.
It would seem to be more appropriate that the sefer in its entirety should be made available (and distributed) for the following reasons:
1) It would amount to the same, if not less, expenses (and especially the hassle involved in weekly printing),
2) Sometimes, one needs to study parts of the book before or after that week’s parsha to gain a better understanding,
3) A book is more dignified,
4) An actual sefer will address the concern that the kuntres will end up roaming around disrespectfully etc. after the Shabbos of the parsha being studied.
