That contradicts what you said earlier.
Yes, it does, I noticed that too.
I’ve heard speakers refer to “the Rosh Hayeshiva”, and unless you know in which yeshiva he learned (and sometimes, which years), you don’t know to whom he is referring.
“Climate change” if you wish.
Toeiva marriage is terrible for the environment. It causes global flooding.
Shach was Rav Shach’s last name.
ש”ך is ראשי תיבות for שפתי כהן.
1. I was helping translate the word for the benefit of those unfamiliar with Yiddish, and giving it context.
But you pulled a nice switcheroo there when you changed the subject of the “betten”. You claimed it doesn’t mean the same as davening, but when you ask, beseach, demand of a human being something which is in Hashem’s realm, it’s problematic.
This is what the Rebbe is answering.
The answer doesn’t fit the question you claim he’s asking.
There’s a very simple answer to the question why you ask someone to daven on your behalf – perhaps that person has zechuyos you don’t, so his tefilos will be answered. It doesn’t replace your own tefilos, it’s in addition to your own tefilos. Atzmus umahus areingeshtelt in a guf doesn’t enter the equation unless the question was about beseaching, asking, demanding, i.e. davening to the person.
You have no legitimate answers = we’re all haters. Got it.
Someone is critical of Chabad = he’s not a godol, ergo, no gedolim are against Chabad. Got it.
the Rebbe is talking about “betten” in English, “asking, demanding, beseeching”, something Chassidim have done throughout the generations, and across the Chassidish spectrum, it’s not exclusive to Lubavitch. In Yiddish we say about someone who has passed on, “Er zol Zayn ah gutte better”
Nice try, but the “Er zol Zayn ah gutte better” means the neshomo is beseaching Hashem, not that we’re beseaching a neshomo, ch”v.
If all the Rebbe was addressing is how you can ask a Rebbe to daven to Hashem, well, nobody really questions that (you can ask anyone to daven to Hashem for you), and the whole atzmus umahus areingeshtelt in a guf bit is unnecessary.
Since avoda zara isn’t battul, then even one apikoires in Lubavitch means stay away
You could use that faulty logic to say to stay away from klal Yisroel.
“This sect of crazies, which falsify the Torah and our sages’ words, to say the Moshiach is dead but is really alive… these are things against our holy Torah.”
You didn’t object when R’ Menashe Klein called them crazies.
Could someone please post me a source for the atzmus sicha?
Was the OP on this thread ever answered?
I don’t mean an explanation of why it can’t be answered, I mean actually answered.
He has to pay well.
Gam ki eileich big gay tzalmaves
Hey, don’t you call my coffee poison.
Is that good or bad?
Honestly, they shouldn’t certify a company whose name refers to toeivah. Unfortunately, they lack the courage to stand up for the Torah.
surely you know that for obvious reasons no Lubavitcher will pay too much attention to what they think about us.
The “obvious reasons” being that they are critical of Chabad.
You interested in answers or just interested in mocking?
He holds it’s a”z. So mocking is a mitzvah.
If you’re sincere you would go and ask someone in person your concerns
If you’re sincere, go ask R’ Aharon Feldman in person.
You gotta love that the shavers rely on Reb Moshe while they use the eruv in NYC and Flatbush and BoroPark.
Who does that? The Litvaks don’t use the eruv, and chassidim don’t shave. Besides, unless someone is a talmid muvhak, they don’t necessarily follow one posek for everything.
And don’t belittle being mevatel the mitzvah of sukkah, it the issur of eating before davening. They’re both wrong.
you know he didn’t mean Hashem is person
I’m aware that it wasn’t intentional, but still feel it needed to be corrected.
how the only person you should serve is Hashem himself.
Hashem is not ch”v a person.
