== Hemshech VeKacha - 1877 ==
The Hemshech "VeKacha - 1877" is a series of Chassidic maamarim from the Rebbe Maharash considered one of the well-known 'hemshechim' in Chassidic teaching and is called "VeKacha HaGadol."

The hemshech includes 46 Chassidic maamarim containing 135 chapters. It begins with the maamar "VeKacha Tochlu Oso" from Pesach 1877 and concludes on Shabbos Parshas Shemos 1878.

The hemshech was first published in 1945 by the Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, who was in charge of Kehot publications at that time, from a photocopy of R' Shmuel Sofer's manuscript.

Many years later, on Yud Shvat 2013, it was reprinted by Otzar HaChassidim in square letters according to the Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach's directive, with additional collected sichos kodesh and notes about the hemshech, as well as the maamar "VeKacha" and its continuation "Kimei Tzeischa" from 1977, which were delivered in connection with the hemshech's centennial and are based upon it.
