His answer says that it’s better to “deceive” people by behaving like a gentlemen rather than showing your true character by behaving in an ungentlemanly manner.

March 2, 2018 4:59 pm at 4:59 pm #1480010JosephParticipantLiked acting politely to someone who you feel like cursing out?
March 2, 2018 5:11 pm at 5:11 pm #1480017馃憫RebYidd23ParticipantYes, and being very nice to your wife. But you have to keep the ruse going for a lifetime.
March 2, 2018 6:12 pm at 6:12 pm #1480020JosephParticipantThat sounds like a wonderful idea!
Come to think of it, I’ll bet if someone tried that approach that eventually he’ll actually come to like the person he didn’t like but always acted friendly to.

You mean to ask what’s your opinion on having an opinion on Rav Miller’s ZTL opinions… 馃檪March 3, 2018 10:52 pm at 10:52 pm #1480081馃憫RebYidd23ParticipantNo, GAON, that’s your question.

Exactly. That’s what Seforim write. 讛专讙诇 谞注砖讛 讟讘注.
I’m still trying his trick…

专砖”讬 讜讬砖讘 诇讝 讚This would seem to contradict the way R Avigdor Miller is quoted, Rashi says once they hated Yosef which was admittedly a Gnus, it was then a Shvach that they at least didn’t act falsely.
Rashi’s mekor is a medrash there (BR 84:9) which contrasts the Shvotim to Avsholom who was capable of acting differently to how he really felt (Maharzav). The Matnos Kehuna calls this geneivas daas; the Yefei Toar calls it chanufa.
Do you have a source/further information about this quote
