Editing The Reshimos (section)

== Publication of Reshimot (Notes) ==

==== Before 5754 (1994) ====
From the beginning of summer 5752 (1992), several Reshimot were published in the Tzaddik L'Melech collections, and in the book Torat Menachem Hitva'aduyot Volume 1 at its beginning.

These Reshimot were not part of the "Reshimot" booklets found in the Rebbe's drawer - rather, when the Igrot Kodesh series was being edited, they asked the Rebbe to provide letters from the early years, and the Rebbe gave a package of letters. In that package were several pages of "Reshimot" as well as "Hayom Yom Part Two." When the Rebbe was asked about this, the Rebbe answered that the editors would find what to do with it. In practice, the Reshimot remained in the hands of the Igrot editors. In 5750 (1990), they gave "Hayom Yom Part Two" to Rabbi Peretz Blau (who published it as an addition to the Hebrew translated edition of "Hayom Yom"), but after this book came to the Rebbe's attention, the Rebbe responded (in essence) "Part Two - who gave permission to publish it?" The Reshimot were published in the Tzaddik L'Melech collections and in Volume 1 of Torat Menachem Hitva'aduyot, as mentioned above. Later, when the Reshimot series was published, the editors also republished these "Reshimot" within the series, and they were omitted from the new edition of Torat Menachem Volume 1.

In 5769 (2009), "Merkaz HaChesed - Matte Moshiach Netanya" prepared a comprehensive compilation of all the Reshimot that the Rebbe published himself, and printed them in a booklet under the name 'Likutei Reshimot'.

==== After 5754 (1994) ====
After 3 Tammuz 5754 (1994), some members of Agudas Chassidei Chabad committee took the Reshimot from their location and began to publish them in an organized manner in weekly booklets. The booklets were published from Kislev 5755 (1994) until the beginning of 5760 (1999). Due to the Rebbe's concise style in his notes (which were written for himself, not for publication), the publishers prepared decoding and explanations for the Rebbe's words. Afterward, these booklets were published as a series, with topics discussed at length being published as separate books (Reshimat HaMenorah, Shnayim Ochazin, References and Brief Notes to the Book of Beinonim, Reshimat HaYoman).

In 5778 (2018), the World Committee of Temimim Students printed several sections from the Reshimot with renewed decoding, as part of the "Katabtit Yehavit" campaign.
