By the grace of G-d

A well-lit and accessible gateway to Tanya, and the most authoritative guide to its riches.

A linear exposition and commentary on Tanya based on a popular weekly radio series in Yiddish. Rabbi Wineberg’s commentary draws upon the teachings he received from Chasidic scholars at the renowned academies of Lubavitch in Europe and on the writings of seven generations of Chabad Rebbes. Each of the lectures was examined and amended by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, so that much of the material includes the Rebbe’s insights and explanatory comments.

Lessons In Tanya leads the reader through every paragraph and page, illuminating the mystical, often allusive Talmudic, Kabalistic and Scriptural verses and concepts. It fills many gaps in what the terse Tanya text assumes to be the reader’s background knowledge.

This series is also available complete in five-volumes.

About the Author:

Tanya, the magnum opus of the founder of Chabad-Lubavitch Chasidism, is indispensable to understanding the philosophy of the Chasidic movement and the essence of the Jewish soul. It unifies Kabbalah and Talmud to explain the "mechanics" of Creation, the infinitude of G-d, and the structure of the human personality. For a period of more than twenty years, the author, Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi (1745-1812), refined its style and form so punctiliously that meaning can be found in every word and letter.

This appealing bi-lingual edition also features an in-depth line by line commentary, serving as an indispensable tool for the average reader.
