Ma'amar "Hechaltzu Ranat" which was given by the Rebbe on the 20th of Mar Cheshvan 1987. It is the very first of the Kuntresim the Rebbe handed out.
On Thursday, the 20th of Cheshvan, the Rebbe handed out the Mamor known as Hechaltzu Ranat - an acronym for the year 1898. by the Admor the Rebbe Rashab. During the Chaluka, the Kuntresim ran out and the Chaluka was stopped.
On that same night, thousands of additional Kuntresim were printed and the following day, the 6th of Cheshvan, the Rebbe continued with the Chaluka. This Chaluka was the first Chaluka of Kuntresim.
On the inside of the back cover of the Kuntres it is written by R' Chaim Tzvi Konikov:
"I have received this (Kuntres) From the Holy Hands of his Honor and Holiness the Admo"r Shlit"a, in connection with the 20th of Cheshvan and the eve of the 21st of Cheshvan after his Honor and Holiness the Admo"r Shlit"a came from the Ohel of the Rayatz - may his merit be a protection for us, He distributed to every person, men and women and said " Success In Your Learning" ( this occurred after the Mincha and Maariv prayers)."
