Author Description

Introducing Daily Studies in Chitas - The Schottenstein Edition, a revolutionary single-volume book that features the entire Chumash and Rashi (with Onkelos), Haftarot, Tehillim, Tanya and Hayom Yom-all accompanied by a modern English translation. This volume also includes a Siddur with English annotations and instructions. About this book: The Chumash and Haftarah feature an interpolated English translation based on the Torah Chumash published by Chabad House Publications and Kehot Publication Society. The Rashi of this volume is a new translation produced exclusively for this work, incorporating the teachings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe. The Tehillim (Psalms) features an easy-to-read interpolated English translation for additional understanding and meaning, from the Tehillim Book of Psalms (Kehot, 2016). The Tanya is presented in portions to make for easy daily learning. The English translation is a simple, straightforward adaptation of the acclaimed Lessons in Tanya (Kehot ed.). The classic Tehillat Hashem - Annotated Edition Siddur (Kehot, 2002), which made the prayers so accessible, has been redesigned to match the layout of this work. The Hayom Yom, which was originally compiled by the Lubavitcher Rebbe in 1943, is filled with Chasidic aphorisms and customs to inspire a purposeful life. This edition includes the English translation from the Hayom Yom Bilingual Edition (Kehot, 1988). Additionally, this volume features a comprehensive foreword that serves as a profound exploration of Chitas study-both its history and background, and the profound merits associated with this study. This foreword is a meticulous and source-based journey that serves to inspire the reader to adopt the study of Chitas and promote its learning wherever Jews are found, showing that Chitas is for everyone.
