Imrei Binah – Kopust, 1821 – First Edition, Printed in the Lifetime of the Author, the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch

Imrei Binah, two parts, explanations on the topics of Achdus HaShem, Kriyat Shema, Tzitzit and Tefillin, based on Kabbalah and Chassidic teachings, by Rabbi Dov Ber the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch. Kopust (Kopys): R. Yisrael Yoffe, prominent disciple of the Baal HaTanya, [1821].
First edition, printed in the lifetime of the author the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch.
Imrei Binah is considered the most profound of the books composed and published by the Mitteler Rebbe. The main part of the book is dedicated to clarifying the kabbalistic concepts of Yichuda Ilaa and Yichuda Tataa, based on the teachings of the author's father – the Baal HaTanya.
The Mitteler Rebbe published ten works during the course of his life, which he stated were each intended for a different kind of Chassid. His book Imrei Binah was directed at the most profound scholars, and he once even stated that he had written it for his disciple R. Yekutiel Liepler. Rebbe Maharash of Lubavitch related that he was once experiencing difficulty in grasping chapters 32 and 37 of the book, and he approached his father the Tzemach Tzedek for help in understanding them. However, his father instructed him to go ask R. Yekutiel (Rebbe Rayatz, Limud HaChassidut, p. 30).
Reputedly, the Divrei Chaim of Sanz would study the book Imrei Binah every night before going to sleep (Sheloshet HaRo'im, Brooklyn 2004, p. 320). The Divrei Chaim even quotes it in his book Divrei Chaim on the Torah, Parashat Vayakhel (p. 28b).
