Thanks, Yira. I always thought you weren’t a Ben Bris.

To Yira:
Moshe Rabbeinu was almost EATEN ALIVE BY A SNAKE for not doing bris milah until Tzippora went ahead and did it.

The gemarra in Yevamos is clear – in the desert they were
נזופים הם לפני המקומ
…Hashem was angry at them. They couldn’t do bris milah because the northern wind (רוח צפונית) didn’t blow.
They did it in the beginning of the 40 years because of the Korban Pesach.

And only “one” posuk? WHO CARES HOW MANY PESUKIM?! They are all equally important. There are 613 mitzvos, not 612. Besides, what about the pesukim by Avraham Avinu? We learn about the 8th day even on a C-section from those pesukim. See the Brisker Rav on the sugya.

Shema Yisroel is also only one pasuk and that’s the pasuk that says Hashem is One. So is bircas hamazon. So is Kibud Av is one, and YIRA is only one.

Your Torah knowledge is astounding…

“set the record straight”????

The “record” is they don’t like Jews and Muslims, and are showing it. No bigot admits to mindless hatred. All bigots claim their hatred is rational and based on logic and scientific consideration. They are bigots, and that is all there is to it.

It says that Moshe Rabeinu did not want to Maleh his son Eliezer, and did not institude Bris Milah for the Yidden in all the years in the Midbor.
When Yehoshua took over the leadership, they finally did Milah.
Moshe Rabbeinu referred to the lips and verbal capability, when he used the term ARAL Sefosayim.
The only time Bris Milah is mentioned in Toras Moshe, is in the Parshe of Tazria, only one Posuk.
