Imrei Binah, explanations on the topics of Kriyat Shema, Tzitzit and Tefillin, based on Kabbalah and Chassidic teachings, by R. 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 compositions during the course of his life, which he stated were each intended for a different kind of Chasid. 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).

Rabbi Mordechai Dov Ber Slonim was born in Lubavitch in 1840; son of Rabbi Yaakov Slonim and Rebbetzin Menucha Rachel, daughter of the Mitteler Rebbe, grand-daughter of the Alter Rebbe, the Baal HaTanya. From his father's side, Rabbi Mordechai Dov Ber was 10th generation to the Maharsha. His facial features famously bore a great resemblance to his grandfather's, the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch. In 1844-1845 he immigrated to Eretz Israel, and settled with his family in Hebron, where he became the director of Kollel Chabad in Eretz Israel, and a prominent member of the local Chabad community. Several times he visited Lubavitch, and developed close relations with the Rebbe Maharash, and later with his son, the Rebbe Rashab (who referred to him in his letters as "my son-in-law"). Rabbi Slonim died in 1915, and was buried in Hebron.

According to the Lubavitcher Rebbe, part II of Sefer Derech Mitzvotecha, is not directly related to part I, being, in fact, a different work all together. Presumably, it was published as part II of an existing work in order to avoid having to acquire a new censorship authorization for publication.
