Welcome back to Tanya is a ברייתא! This week, we take a dive into the phrase “chatas neurim”, and we discuss its meaning, usage, and connotation, as well as what the Alter Rebbe intended to convey by using it in chapter 29 of the first part of Tanya.

(The intention of this series is to attempt to bring out the Alter Rebbe’s intention by doing a deep dive into his (oftentimes niglah’dike) sources. Enjoy the shiur!)
