Pamphlet “Maamar Baruch She’Asa Nissim 1904”, given by the Rebbe, in its original case.
Pamphlet “Maamar Baruch She’Asa Nissim 1904”, published by Kehat, Shvat 1991. Received from the Rebbe himself.

Bright binding, light green, very good condition. With a certificate from the recipient. Given inside a clear plastic case.

Content: a maamar from the Admor Rashab on the blessing “Baruch She’Asa Nissim” (blessed is the one who does miracles), given in 1904. The binding has the date printed: “10th Shvat 1991”. The content is a comprehensive exegesis on the internal significance of the subject of miracles, with a lengthy exposition on the difference between the revelation of Divinity in miracles that are supernatural versus those that use nature. Along the way additional foundational matters in chassidus and maamarim of chazal are given exegesis.

On Thursday night, the eve of 10th of Shvat, 1991, the Admor returned from the Ohel. The synagogue was packed, especially near the “amud” of the shaliach tzibur, since the Admor who pass in front of the teiva before Maariv. The entire place was packed since there had been a rumour that the maamar would be given out and had spread through the whole community. After the tefilah, the Admor said mishnayot and kadish as was his minhag, and then the gabbay officially declared that a chaluka would take place in a few minutes upstairs net to the Rebbe’s room, where the chaluka of bills took place every Sunday.

It was impossible not to find in the distribution of the article also the contemporary connection in light of the miracles and wonders of the 'Year of Miracles' and the 'Year of Ar’ainu Niflaos’ throughout the world and especially in the Land of Israel. The last words of the article are - "And this is what he did miracles for our ancestors and the request is that he be 'also at this time etc.'"

For hours on end, the Rebbe stood on his feet and gave the audience the article containing the bills of charity. In Shabbat Parashat Beshalach, the Rebbe mentioned the chaluka of the pamphlet, explaining that the division would arouse the study of the article in particular, and the Torah in general, and would also constitute an acceleration of true and complete redemption.
