Reply To: Question of an ignorant, closed-minded Lubavitcher

Avira,

>>>It’s all over rishonim and achronim that we have no nevuah now. If the only way you can prove something is with kabalah

Where does the Rebbe prove this with kabbala? He explains it clearly al pi nigleh! Yet, you are too cowardly to open up the pilpulim where the Rebbe discusses this. Again, we will go in circles all day if we discuss pilpulim which you refuse to learn, but quote anyway.

>>>not studying it until the age of 40 after mastering shas and poskim, as proscribed by the poskim. His errors are largely due to premature exposure to kabalah

Would you say the same of the Vilna Gaon who was a master of kabbala before his bar mitzva?

>>>Quoting a gemara is not lime quoting one line of a sefer out of context; it’s a naamar chazal.
>>>nomesorah said that there is no such gemara. I said that there is and cited it – why do you take that as “quoting a random line”?

You completely misunderstood me. Read what I wrote again. The “random line” wasn’t referring to the Gemara, it was referring to the quote from the Rebbe.

The Rebbe said 2 pilpulim (which I referenced) where he discusses the idea of nevuah in our times, and you have the chutzpa to take one line from those sichos and say “This line goes against a Gemara” when the entire sicha is discussing how to understand that very Gemara according to mefarshim and Rambam!!!

And then, instead of admitting your wrong and opening up the source to see how the Rebbe supports his position, you continue to attack how the Rebbe “uses kabbala” to argue with the Gemara about nevuah, which is completely untrue.

Again, I repeat my taana on you: How dare you attack someone’s pilpul without even thinking of opening it up to see how he explains himself?

You make as if you “found a Gemara” that doesn’t fit with the Rebbe’s statement, when that is actually what his pilpul is about.
