Chassidim and bochurim across the world are in the midst of preparing for Yud-Alef Nissan, which will mark the Rebbe’s 116th birthday.
To assist in these preparations, Vaad Hanachos Belahak (Lahak) has released a new booklet containing four maamorim beginning with the possuk “Halelu es Hashem kol goyim,” the opening possuk of kapitel 117, which we will begin saying this Yud-Alef Nissan.
These maamorim, appearing here in a revised edition, were printed in the set of Sefer Hamaamorim published by Lahak, and have now been made available as a single booklet in honor of Yud-Alef Nissan.
These four maamorim were said on (or near) the Yom Tov of Sukkos, when seventy oxen were sacrificed in the Beis Hamikdash, corresponding to the seventy nations. This is reflected in the theme of kapitel 117, which discusses how “all the nations of the world will praise Hashem.”
The maamorim were said on the second day of Sukkos, 5726 (1965); Simchas Torah, 5726 (1965); Shabbos Chol Hamo’ed Sukkos, 5728 (1967); and the second day of Sukkos, 5731 (1970). The maamar of 5731 was edited by the Rebbe.
As an aid in learning the maamorim, the booklet also features a summary of each maamar.
