Working in a Jewish grocery store might have influenced him and may be on his way to becoming a Yid.
I’m 100% serious.
artchill – How about declaring a Day of Honor for me too.
AZ – “cherrybim: The ribbono shel oilam expects us to do our best. The rest is up to him. Quitting on Klal yisroel isn’t an option.”
This is doing our best? This is fantasy.
For desperate times, you need desperate action and large shoulders. My suggestion is that we use the sort of Reverand Moon method of pairing single couples:
With the blessings of the g’dolim, all Jewish singles who agree will sign up to the program and frum experts will pair them up and we will have a massive chupa for tens of thousands. It will be the biggest simcha ever. If chas v’sholem some marriages don’t work out, these ex-couples will again go into the pool for the next choosing.
But we need to be prepared for the massive population explosion. Halavai.
The one man ,one wife thingy?
Daniel Breslauer – If you can read Yiddish, why can’t you write it also? Try to get a hold of “Briefen Shteller”, a Yiddish primer of long ago.
Starwolf – Try reading any of the Apikorsim’s Yiddish stories or poetry; in addition to knowing the language, unless you are fluent in Tanach and minhagim and halacha of Shuchan Aruch that were practiced by everyone amalege tzeiten, you’re not going to understand anything.
Point is: You can’t speak this language without incorporating holy idioms and words connoting all aspects of Yiddishkeit.
AZ – You are not going to change human psychology and physiology; so think of something else.
“I’ve never heard that R’ Cohen said the eruv is ok. AFAIK, he actually said it’a assur to use it.”
I think he said that it’s at least a safek eruv.
cherrybim: “There is mucho hostility toward the holy Yiddish language out in the CR world. We’ve been through this before, and it was ugly.”

Nothing has changed.
So why do you think HaRav Menashe Klein is the Rav Hamachsher?
Do you think there’s room to l’chatchila hold l’chumra and not use the Eruv, but to go l’kula and use the Eruv b’shas hadchak?
Jothar “It was proven it WASN’T, which is why the thread died after I posted the Igros Moshes. “
Oh yeah, Was too!
Both ways.
Why is everyone wasting their time here with the back and forth; it was already proven in the previous CR thread that Yiddish is indeed a holy language.
Do all you paskin like Rav Moshe only l’chumra, or l’kula too?
Joseph – “The purpose of the white shirt, hat, jacket is “lo shinu es malbushayhen” – we want to dress differently than the seculars.”
You mean the manufacturers only make white shirts, hats and jackets for frum Yidden? Of course not.
Thanks. If anyone remembers; in the early 70’s, Dovid Cohen was an accountant and then bought the Miller Cheese Store in the Lower East Side and then opened another in Borough Park on 13 Ave. He also produced a Pesach cheese pie. All this was before cheese stores and Pesach baking became popular. He sold out, retired, and devoted his life to tzedaka in Eretz Yisroel.
Chochim: you missed the point.
To complete the pitch; please check out this warm story about ICF:
Such as: The Israel Chesed Fund. Dovid L. Cohen has raised many $millions over the last 30 years and every penny has gone to the very poor of Eretz Yisroel. No salaries, no rent, no expenses charged to the fund.
I prefer tzedaka with zero overhead.
What about yeshivish english?
Anyway, his advice to them is to leave it alone because if you take away this outlet, the child will always seek another outlet that’s worse than the original outlet.
Feif Un- Everything else being equal, would you at least agree that Yiddish and Hebrew are on a higher level than other languages?
“frumpy”, as in wrinkled and stained and one end coming up over the waste and the other end sticker out of the zipper?
Rather than rehashing the gantze zach here, how about reprinting the main points of the debate un datzol.

“The Shulchan Aruch states that one does not need to listen to their parents when mum or dad say not to marry someone…this is not a violation of kibud av v’em”
I basically heard these words directly from Rav Moshe Feinstein TZ’L. It helps to have a Rav vouch for the girl/boy.
I have a nice photo of Rav Moshe TZ’L wearing a striped shirt. And Rav Ruderman wore a grey kapata and hat in warmer weather.
tamazaball – Cancel the party. No party, no problem. Kibud Av V’em in a chiyuv d’oreisa, a party isn’t.
Ktzoys: There is mucho hostility toward the holy Yiddish language out in the CR world. We’ve been through this before, and it was ugly. It was one of those rare times when Joseph and I were on the same side.
And I’m b’emes the Pope.
Yes esmith92000, it is maple syrup and all your info is absolutely correct.
But aren’t the five color advertisement spreads wonderful?
Ames, I don’t mind taking the rap and being banned. But why punish Joseph?
And Negativity? And Complaints? I am really hurt.
I have neither complaints nor negativity about women’s tznius. I think they are making a pretty good effort under the circumstances. America is not the shtetle and the nisyonos are far greater here and now than ever before. So again, I think women are to be complimented, not criticized for the way they cover up. Halavai Veiter!
That’s “reformulated” group.
Good eye Joseph.
A groise yasher koach to you Joseph.
dmg – ” Many but by no means all chashuva poskim are not comfortable being somech on this because it’s not so geshmak to drink something deliberately made using nonkosher processing.”
There is a kosher product used by everyone and with top hashgacha that has bacon dropped into it as part of the process. Anyone know what this product is?
chochomatik – “R’Moshe and the Minchas Yitzchok, among others, have long ago paskened that scotch aged in wine barrels is OK.”
Not good enough for the trouble makers. Got anyone better?
LeiderLeider”…I am persoanlly not aware of such a food item. Generally after an hour all foods are cooked at least nominally.”
A raw cold cholent on a low flame will not be anywhere near cooked in 72 minutes and longer; it will still be totally raw and inedible.
Let’s also congratulate the Brooklyn frum community for its accomplishments in terms of sinas chinam and mentchlichkeit.
When the Flatbush eruv was first erected, it wasn’t usable because the eruv would be torn down every week by the detractors who sincerely believed it was a mitzva to do so.
In addition, there was a civil war in effect in the community: families were split apart; friends became enemies; people who used the eruv were not allowed to eat in the same home as those who didn’t; shidduchim were broken; Rabbonim were abused; mothers with babies were harrassed. Boruch Hashem this is all past us.
Anybody a Novi here?
haifagirl – “… I recall that cholent needs to be EITHER ki’machal ben drusoi, OR totally raw.”
rabbiofberlin – “with raw food (or cholent) technically the “oven’ must be sealed so as to avoid the temptation of stir it or to adjust the fire. I am not sure whether our ‘blech’s’ are considered “sealed”.”
I heard a Posek say the amount should be enough so that the matchmaker would be happy with it. The shachanis should be given before the chasana.
London Bais Din: All Scotch is ok.
Here’s the real world:
Good Shabbos Mrs. Goldberg. Wasn’t that a wonderful drasha!
Please explain when long loose fitting skirts/dresses became untzniusdik and the same for denim; who made up these fake regulations? Our women are not sluts and if it was tzniusdik for many years; what changed in the halacha?
Also, let’s suggest that women show some m’siras nefesh and add a few inches to their waists and a chin or two so they will be less attracting to the our men who want to sometimes take a walk outside. Their husbands can be moser nefesh for the cause too.
And women, I know it’s great that you have all your hair covered, but that shaitel, you know the one that we tried to get you to wear for many years; well it’s just too good. Get rid of it!
From the sound of some of these posts, I want to institute a new g’zeira: Women should not be looking at other women: at how they dress, what kind of sheitel they have on, what kind of make up they wear, their shoes, their bodies.
IT’S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!
And it is also the cause of lots of sinas chinam and loshon hara.
So women and men, if it bothers you, no peeking.
You can’t benefit ON Shabbos from food that was cooked for a Jew, by a Jew on Shabbos. So you’re saying that the timer should give the coffee a halacha of being cooked by a goy?
NY Mom – From what you say, it doesn’t sound like these people are that desperate to get married; same thing applies to the so called Age Gap theory.
Josh31- Thanks for the update and correction. Baruch Hashem that Jewish women are the most beautiful in the world; both in midos and in appearance.
