June 13, 2025 1:38 am at 1:38 am #2410917Always_Ask_QuestionsParticipantyankel > What would be lacking if they did ?
hard to say. Here is a case: Ms Sarah Schenirer got the idea of building a school from Rabbi Dr Frisch from Yakkish school. Several yakkish ladies with university degrees helped her build the curriculum. After that, she got first cursory and then more support from some of the chassidisha rebbes – and opposition from others. If some of those rabbis knew what Rabbi Dr Frisch knew – maybe they would have come up with the school system earlier and with yad rama rather than leaving `the mitzvah to Ms Schenirer? How many neshomos ended up in a wrong place in the meanwhile?
I am not advocating for rebbes doctors, just answering your question “What would be lacking “
June 13, 2025 1:38 am at 1:38 am #2410985yankel berelParticipantsechel :
Other Jews talk about bringing nachas to their parents so I guess according to you they are idolizing their parents.—-
Huge difference between giving nahat to parents on one hand and
neo habad giviving nahat to maham shilo , on the other.
Old habad did not endeavor to give nachat to ba’al hatanya , nor to tsemach tsedeq.
Old habad gave nachat to the RBSH’O, and to their parents , exactly like 98 % of orthodox jews do now.
This is a late invention by neo habad .
.
.
On second thought , it is not really such a big invention.After all ,everyone wants to give nachat to HKBH .
You know the niggun – la’asot nachat ruach , la’asot nachat ruach , laboreh yitbarach shemo.
So what do you do, if you are convinced that your rebbi IS [chvsh] …… the RBSH’O himself ?
.
.
Then the answer is simple and logical , like one plus one equals two, ….. you attempt to give nachat to the late rebbi.That is THE point of divergence between neo habad on one side and the rest of the orthodox Jewish world
and also
THE point of divergence between neo habad on one side and historical habad ledoroteihem .

June 13, 2025 1:38 am at 1:38 am #2410998yankel berelParticipantThe gemara in sotah has a whole list of things that were batul like שקדנים, יראי חטא etc. Will you say reb Moshe feinstein did not have יראת חטא? Was not a שקדן???

Think the simple answer to your q is that RMF with his towering greatness , did still not reach the level mentioned in Mes Sotah.
So what do you want to learn from there ?

Hi I’m back. Thanks Yankel Berel for making me aware of this thread. The issue of Chabad’s view of Zionism is interesting but this is more in my wheelhouse. I was told by someone very close to Rabbi Deutsch that he left CH and moved to BP because of the death threats he was receiving.

You should know by now that Shmei selectively answers questions. He’s a propagandist.

Would you care to comment on Rabbi Manis Friedman’s statement that no Jew can be punished today no matter what he does? Also his remark that we keep Mitzvahs, not because we’re commanded to do so, but because G-d has needs and having us keep Mitzvahs fulfills those needs.
June 13, 2025 4:13 pm at 4:13 pm #2411276sechel83ParticipantYankel berel about nachas, all you wrote was that it wasn’t done before. How do you know? What’s the issue?
Read the whole igeres! Don’t make fun as if there is no nevuah if you haven’t learned basics in this sugya. I don’t know which page, where I got it from – sefaria – there I no pages
I get from the gemara sotah that the rebbe can have nevuah just maybe on a lower level just like you say about RMF.June 15, 2025 9:55 am at 9:55 am #2411765Non PoliticalParticipant@ Seychel83
“Don’t make fun as if there is no nevuah if you haven’t learned basics in this sugya”
Learning the basics in a sugya, any sugya starts with Chazal and Rishonim. But that’s probably not what you had in mind, right?
Also, how do you know he hasn’t learned the basics? Wait…I know. Because he disagrees with what Chabbad has to say on the matter, right?
June 15, 2025 9:55 am at 9:55 am #2411867yankel berelParticipantSmag says clearly that there is no nevu’a untill elyahu hanavi.
He talks about nevu’a as chazal call it such.
That hazal type of nevu’a does not exist anymore .
That hazal type of nevu’a [again] has clear and dramatic halachik ramifications.
For example –
1] a navi needs to tested .
if he fails the test , even by a hairsbreath , he is halachically considered a navi sheker .
And hayav be mitat beit din .
2] if he is a navi emet , any jew not listening to him is hayav mitah biyedei shamayim,
not something to be trifled with.
——
Now lets face it – what type of navi did the late leader of habad claim to be , in his sicha of shoftim [5751] ?
The hazal type of navi ?
or the imitation of the hazal type of navi ?
I am under the impression that habad would answer this last question always differently .
Depending on the audience …..
For themselves , for their pnimi chinuch and own adherents they would say – this is the hazal type of nevu’a
But when confronted with ‘outsiders’ posing this very same question , the answer is , no this not the the real hazal type of nevu’a

It’s essential to Chabad theology to believe that the Rebbe was an actual Novi. The fact that it’s nonsense at best and Kefirah at worst means nothing to them.
June 15, 2025 8:01 pm at 8:01 pm #2412076Menachem ShmeiParticipantLearning the basics in a sugya, any sugya starts with Chazal and Rishonim. But that’s probably not what you had in mind, right?
Lol, classic anti-Chabad screeching on YWN. You quoted Sechel but conveniently skipped the first four words: ‘Read the whole igeres!’ – referring to Igeres Teiman, written by the Rambam, a Rishon.
Yankel also seemed confused by Sechel’s mention of בטלה ענוה alongside נסתלקה נבואה – apparently unaware that they appear together at the end of Gemara Sotah.
So yes, the sugya begins with Chazal (Sotah) and Rishonim (Rambam).
I already posted at length (many pages) about nevuah nowadays in a previous thread, so there’s no point rehashing it here.

I don’t think it will shut down so quickly because the posts have been less vitriolic than in the past. One thing hasn’t changed of course. Chabad has been proven to be a false religion led by a false Messiah/god.
June 16, 2025 12:40 am at 12:40 am #2412324Non PoliticalParticipantI don’t accept the Gemara in Sotah and the Rambam’s Igeres Taimon as positive proof texts for the acceptability of the belief that the last Lubavicher Rebbe was a Navi. Sorry.
Have you ever met anyone outside Chabbad that does?

You should know by now that Menachem Shmei only answers questions that suit him. I would suggest that we discuss with our points between ourselves. As an example I brought up Rabbi Manis Friedman’s Kefirah. To be sure, Menachem wouldn’t comment. Friedman stated that no Jew can be punished because of the bitter exile. I have no idea what that means, but I think he’s covering up for his Rebbe who said he’ll save every Jew. Would you care to comment?
June 16, 2025 10:51 pm at 10:51 pm #2413019sechel83Participant@Yankel berel
So you’re taking the smag over the rambam? Are you a posek?
As far as manis Friedman shlita, where does it say that someone who says what he said is kefira? Source?
Don’t say ani maamin, cuz he’s not rejecting onesh , he said that because of the great difficulty of galus, hashem takes that into consideration and because of that, at this point no onesh like there was many yrs ago (He may have been exaggerating by saying no onesh completely anyway)June 16, 2025 10:51 pm at 10:51 pm #2413022sechel83ParticipantOne of the 13 ikrim is that there is nevuah, and it’s in hilchos yesofai hatorah of the rambam
So why saying that there is no nevuah today is not kefira but manis Friedman who says there is no onesh is??!!June 17, 2025 11:00 am at 11:00 am #2413187yankel berelParticipantWhy say that there is a machloket between rambam and smag ?
Afushei plugta lo mafshinan.
Smag says no nevua till eliyahu hanavih
rambam seems to say [as far as i remember] close before mashiach nevuah will return .
[would like a page number of rambam in igeret teiman if possible]
Because of Afushei plugta lo mafshinan , we should say that both agree that before eliyahu there is no nevu’a
and with coming of eliyahu and his nevu’a , rambams prediction will come true.

The hazal type of nevu’a does not exist anymore .
That is a clear gemara.
Hazal type of nevu’a has clear and dramatic halachik ramifications. As opposed to non hazal type nevu’a.
For example –
1] a navi needs to tested .
if he fails the test , even by a hairsbreath , he is halachically considered a navi sheker .

Apparently u saw the video, since u know what he said. I’ll repeat it, “Because of the long exile no Jew can be punished no matter what he does.” So you say he was exaggerating. Maybe the Friedeger was exaggerating when he said that religious Zionism is Kefirah. Maybe Rabbi Cumin was exaggerating when he said the Rebbe runs the world. I understand that you want to defend these people because you’re Chabad but I have to assume that they mean what they say especially because I have heard other Lubavitchers say similar things.
June 17, 2025 11:01 am at 11:01 am #2413249qwerty613ParticipantTo Sechel
You obviously mean that the Rebbe was a Navi. So give us an example of his Nevuah.
June 17, 2025 11:01 am at 11:01 am #2413364qwerty613ParticipantTo Sechel
According to your “logic” the Sages of the Gemara were Kofrim when they said that there won’t be Nevuah until Moshiach arrives. Second point. Let’s say we accept your thesis that Manis Friedman meant that Hashem only gives the mildest punishments today, how would he know that? Are you saying that he’s also a Novi?
June 17, 2025 2:35 pm at 2:35 pm #2413552Non PoliticalParticipant@ Sechel83
Please clarify, are you affirming that BOTH of the following propositions are true?
1) Saying there is no Nevuah today is kfira
2) Saying there is no schar and onesh today is not kfira
June 18, 2025 1:03 am at 1:03 am #2413582qwerty613ParticipantTo non-political
A blessing on your head. Too many of the posters seek to obfuscate the issues. You take the clearheaded approach and ask Sechel to clarify his remarks which, of course, he can’t because he has no Sechel. All Lubavitchers are trapped in a catch 22. They can’t honestly answer any rational question because such questions expose that their religion is a series of lies. On the other hand, they can’t admit that the.Rebbe was a Kofer because he’s the basis of their entire existence. So instead they play word games hoping the pursuers will get tired and move to a different subject.

NO im saying the opposite, just like to say FOR A PERIOD OF TIME there is no nevuah even though its an ikur, so too schar and onesh (im not saying definatly this is the case, but you need to bring a pfoof that someone is a kofer, and whats the difference0

You ask a good question so I’ll give a better answer. You ask, “We see that even though Nevuah is an Ikkar there were times that we didn’t have it, so too for Schar Veonesh.” The difference is that it’s the Gemara which says that Nevuah will be taken away. On the other hand, it’s some Rabbi who’s saying that Schar Veonesh no longer exists. Now I’ll repeat a question I asked you last week, “Since you foolishly believe that the Rebbe was a Novi give us an example of his Nevuah.”
June 18, 2025 10:51 am at 10:51 am #2413874yankel berelParticipanthow do you explain smag that before eliyahu hanavi comes there will be no nevu’a anymore ?

.June 18, 2025 2:40 pm at 2:40 pm #2414078sechel83Participant@qwerty. I have a better answer. None are kofrim, the rambam gives a list of people who are kofrim, he doesn’t mention either!!

The real navis were American special forces and intelligence officers who were “seeing” where the scud launchers were. I don’t think they caught them but at least the launchers were always on a run.
June 18, 2025 5:11 pm at 5:11 pm #2414161ARSoParticipantAnd which poskim signed that he has a din navi. I believe the correct answer is ‘none’, unless you count Lubavichers.

You’re conflating predictions and prophecies. If someone predicted that the stock market would crash and it did he isn’t a prophet. To be a Novi one must state that Hashem told him etc. Since this never happened the Rebbe’s predictions are irrelevant.

If we are going to to go down this path let’s at least do it right.
Anyone can make true predictions some of the time.
It would be more relevant to ask did the Rebbe make predictions that turned out to be unambiguously false?
June 19, 2025 2:40 am at 2:40 am #2414425sechel83ParticipantI admit that there is not only one opinion on how many people were killed and how they were killed. There are different counts by different sources.
Anyway I don’t even know for sure that the rebbe said no one will be killed, definitely the rebbe said it’s the safest place and encouraged people to go and not leave. What exactly was the prophecy maybe about Purim but many rabbamim signed a psak din, they didn’t write what they are referring too so I don’t know for sure.

Lol.
I remember the guy in Petah Tiqva who died from a scud landing right on top of him.
He was known nationally as an anti religious lawyer who donated his services , pro bono, in any secular vs religion court case.
If your rebbi claimed to have fully halachik nevu’ah , then your rebbi is liable to mitat bet din as navi sheker.
Cf Rambam hilchot yesodeh hatorah [end] .
Where he clearly states
If the prospective navi fails even in one small detail of his prediction ,
we know for sure that he is sheker , and therefore hayav mitah .
