Shaarei Teshuvah, by the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch – Both Parts - Zhitomir, 1864
Shaarei Teshuva, Part I - Gate of Repentance, Gate of Free Will and Gate of Prayer; Part II - Gate of Repentance and Education, by Rebbe Dov Ber, the Mitteler Rebbe of Lubavitch. Zhitomir: R. Chanina Lipa and R. Yehoshua Heshel Shapira, grandsons of the rabbi of Slavita, 1864.
Sefer Shaarei Teshuvah was first printed in Shklov, in 1817-1818, in the lifetime of the Mitteler Rebbe, in two separate parts ("gates"), which were titled "Shaar Hateshuva VeHatefilah". The present edition, printed in Zhitomir, was the first to publish the two parts of the book in a single volume, which from then on was titled "Shaarei Teshuvah" . A third part, titled "Derech Chaim", was printed separately in Kopust (1819).
