Shem Mishmuel

This article is about the Torah book. For rebbe, see Shmuel Bornsztain (second Sochatchover rebbe).

Shem Mishmuel (Hebrew: שם משמואל) is a nine-volume collection of homiletical teachings on the Torah and Jewish holidays delivered by Rabbi Shmuel Bornsztain, the second Sochatchover Rebbe, between the years 1910–1926.[1] A major work in Hasidic thought, it synthesizes the Hasidism of Pshischa and Kotzk in the style of Sochatchov,[1] and is frequently cited in Torah shiurim (lectures) and articles.

Bornsztain became known as the Shem Mishmuel after the title of this work, which was published posthumously.
