Chabad - or any Russian chassidusin - were into Chok (I think a number of Rebbe's in the early doros of chassidus argued its merits - I seem to rememeber R' Nachman Breslover wasnt pro-chok either). But in any case, with the addition of Chitas in Lubavitch, or daf_HaYomi in teh velt, Chok was naturally going to be left somewhat by the wayside.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-1160677053134330592006-10-12T14:17:00.000-04:002006-10-12T14:17:00.000-04:00PricelineI could've sworn that I did post it.

It's the idea that's lost, (maybe replaced by the Daf Yomi?)<BR/><BR/>Why should reprinting help? It's a tedious task every day to learn all that material, believe me when I tell you. This is obviously a take-off on the Chok. It remains to be seen if it'll be successful, I doubt it.<BR/><BR/>As far as blaming Rabbi Scherman: who else do I "blame"? he puts his name on as editir every book that comes out, so if he'll take the credit let him take some flack too.Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציגhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08911009966581004937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-1160637335957168032006-10-12T03:15:00.000-04:002006-10-12T03:15:00.000-04:00Wait a sec Hirshel....There will be many vertlach ...Wait a sec Hirshel....<BR/>There will be many vertlach from Lubavitch in the next edition................when Lubavitch inc. by way of one of its publishing arms prints any non Lubavitch vort, EVEN a generic SFAS EMES VORT!<BR/>Actually, Artscroll has published Sfas Emes seforim,remind me what non Lubavitch seforim Lubavitch has published lately (or ever).<BR/><BR/>Just curious, why do you bother?It's a free country stop buying Artscroll, if you hate them so much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13084425.post-1160624461833737542006-10-11T23:41:00.000-04:002006-10-11T23:41:00.000-04:00Tzig,why don't you team up with with R.
