Divrei Moshiach is the name of a series of books that includes all the unedited talks and discourses given by the Rebbe during the years. The series is edited and published by the Institute for Spreading the Teachings of Moshiach (managed by Rabbi Yisroel Grenoveter) and is called by this name based on the acronym the Rebbe gave to the year 5744 [1984-1985]. The books in the series are printed in reverse chronological order, with the first volumes that were printed being from the year 5752 [1991-1992] and continuing to 5751 [1990-1991], with plans to reach the year 5710 [1949-1950].

With the beginning of publication in the month of Tishrei 5777 [October 2016], the Institute announced that it intends to publish an additional book at least every three months.

Background

Beginning in the month of Tishrei 5777 [October 2016], the Institute for Spreading the Teachings of Moshiach began to publish a series of books called 'Divrei Moshiach,' which includes all of the Rebbe's unedited teachings, including talks, discourses, written notes, words spoken during dollar distribution [2], private audiences [3] (and the like), as well as a detailed diary of what happened in "Beis Chayeinu" [770 Eastern Parkway] on a daily basis [4], organized by year.

Each volume in this series contains extensive material that was never published before, or was only accessible to a few collectors and is now being exposed to the wider public through this series.

The Divrei Moshiach series is printed in the Holy Tongue [Hebrew], and as an addition, at the end of the book are included transcripts of the talks in Yiddish - verbatim transcripts from the recording of talks given on weekdays. These transcripts have not undergone significant editing apart from punctuation and division into sections, usually based on comparison with the edited version in the Holy Tongue [5].

Publication

About a year after beginning the series, from 5778 [2017-2018], the Institute began to publish weekly booklets with excerpts from the book that would be published later. The booklet includes a discourse, talk, diary and/or notes from "dollars" from the same week in which the booklet is published.

Since the farbrengens from the years 5747-5752 [1987-1992] were later edited by the Rebbe, the series took on a unique aspect of containing content that had not been previously printed in books. When the Institute completed the preparation of these farbrengens, it began in 5782 [2021-2022] to publish the farbrengens from 5738 [1977-1978], which also had not been printed and correspond to the same calendar configuration [6].

As of Adar II 5784 [March 2024], the Institute has published twenty-five volumes in this series, including talks from the years 5748-5752 [1987-1992] and two volumes from 5738 [1977-1978], as well as two volumes in the 'Yemei Moshiach' series, which include diaries from the years 5753-5754 [1992-1994].

  • 5752 [1991-1992] (3 volumes)
  • 5751 [1990-1991] (5 volumes)
  • 5750 [1989-1990] (5 volumes)
  • 5749 [1988-1989] (5 volumes)
  • 5748 [1987-1988] (5 volumes)
  • 5738 [1977-1978] (2 volumes)

Yemei Moshiach

As a complement to the series, the "Yemei Moshiach" series was published, which includes two volumes containing a full and detailed diary of events from the years 5753-5754 [1992-1994] with the Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach Shlita.

The first part includes diaries from the beginning of 5753 [1992] until the 29th of Adar, and the second part includes diaries from the 1st of Nissan 5753 [1993] until the 22nd of Adar 5754 [1994] [7].
