יוֹם הוּלֶדֶת אֶת אַדְמוּ"ר הָאֶמְצָעִי — תקל"ד
The birthday of the Mitteler Rebbe in 5534 (1773)
וְיוֹם הִסְתַּלְקוּתוֹ — תקפ"ח
and the anniversary of his passing in 5588 (1827).
וּמְנוּחָתוֹ כָּבוֹד בְּניעֶזשִׁין
His resting place is in Niezhin.
ט' בְּכִסְלֵו תקנ"ד אָמַר רַבֵּנוּ הַזָּקֵן מַאֲמָר
On 9 Kislev, 5554 (1793), the Alter Rebbe delivered a maamar
וְהוּא חֵלֶק פֶּרֶק נ"ג מִסֵּפֶר שֶׁל בֵּינוּנִים (תַּנְיָא) הַמְדַבֵּר עַל דְּבַר בַּיִת רִאשׁוֹן
that was [later to appear as] part of chapter 53 of Tanya, which discusses the First Beis HaMikdash.
לְמָחֳרָתוֹ אָמַר חֲסִידוּת עוֹד הַפַּעַם — סִיּוּם פֶּרֶק הַנִּזְכָּר לְעֵיל עַד גְּמִירָא
On the following day he taught Chassidus again, concluding [what later constituted] the end of that chapter [and the entire book].
כִּי הַמַּאֲמָרִים מֵרֹאשׁ הַשָׁנָה תק"ן עַד י' כִּסְלֵו תקנ"ד
For from the maamarim he delivered from Rosh HaShanah, 5550 (1789) until 10 Kislev, 5554 (1793),
(אֲשֶׁר בָּהֶם נִכְלְלוּ לִקּוּטֵי עֵצוֹת מִשָּׁנִים הַקוֹדְמוֹת)
which include selected words of counsel from earlier years.
מֵהֶם נִסְדְרוּ נ"ג פִּרְקֵי סֵפֶר שֶׁל בֵּינוּנִים
the 53 chapters of Sefer shel Beinonim (the first part of Tanya) were constructed
