Editing The Maggid of Mezritch (section)

== His Torah ==
Unlike his teacher the Baal Shem Tov's teachings, which were delivered briefly and in points without explanation, his teachings were extensive and delivered with clear explanation.

It is said that when he would deliver his Torah teachings in Chassidus and Kabbalah, all his disciples would be overwhelmed with inspiration to the point of physical reaction, except for the Alter Rebbe.

Only two of his disciples, [[The Alter Rebbe|Rabbi Schneur Zalman]] - The alter Rebbe the Rav of Wolpe (some say also [[Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Vitebsk]]) received his teachings in their entirety.

Some say that in the Maggid's beis medrash they also studied many halachic rulings, not just Chassidus, as can be seen from several instances where the Alter Rebbe writes in a style that implies this.

The Maggid did not write seforim himself, and his Chassidic teachings were written down by his disciples, who published them in books (see section on his seforim). The Rebbe comments on this: "As is known, the Maggid's seforim were written by his disciples (the Maggid's disciples with all the virtue that implies). Additionally, according to Chassidic accounts, the Maggid himself saw the seforim before they were printed (whether all the seforim were complete or only part was complete, in any case he saw them while still in manuscript form, and certainly saw several parts, especially the main sections)."
