Reply To: Are yissurim from negligence a kappara chet

syag: no can ever blame anything on the rinbono shel olam has veshalom. Gd is perfect- tzur tamim.

The question is can your suffering for being ten min late and all the frustration that goes along with it be a kpara for a sin that you did and needed to atone for. And is this different if you 1) were “lazy” and left 10 min late 2) left 10 min late beyond your control (i.e. you child needed you) 3) you were intentionally 10 min in order to afflict yourself.

I think everyone is maskim when its an ohnes as in case #2 that it counts as kapara. The question is if 1 and 3 also count. For #1, “lazy” and “negligent” are very subjective- and we can never know when one truly exercises their bechira to be lazy- perkey avos aside.
