What major are you going for? and What do you mean by events? I went and taught at Brooklyn College.
The Essenes did live in the Dead Sea area so a lot of Dead Sea scholars and professors of Jewish history attribute the scrolls to the Esseness. The Esseness were a Jewish sect, they followed the oral law but felt that all men should be celibate, always tahor, lived in isolation from the rest of the world and live their life as builders (carried an ax everywhere they went) waiting for the day when they can rebuild the third temple. They believed they were going to be builders of temple and only people who were pure to the best of their ability from birth could build the temple.
The scrolls do not as far as I know mention anything to do with christianity.
As a public school teacher let me answer this there are three types of regents diplomas currently.
Regents Diploma: 5 regents (English, Global History and Geography, U.S. History and Government, 1 Science and 1 Math (Preferably Integrated Algebra).
Advanced Regents Diploma (English,Global History and Geography, U.S. History and Government, and Foreign Language Exam (not a regents). Also you need either 2 science and 3 maths or three sciences and two maths.
Advanced Regents Diploma with Honors get above a 85 or 90 on all regents based on what the honors score for that regents (for math it usually is an 85 and other subjects a 90 but it changes from Mayra to year in some cases on some subject for different reasons.)
Now every high school in NY is required to give enough courses assuming every student will get an advanced regents diploma and can require it as an requirement to graduate from that school. They also have the option of forcing you take 3 or even 4 years of math and science if they like.
As someone that worked as a assistant masgiach on a several pesach trips in different hotels thorough out the country. Firstly, sometimes certain brands of quinoa are stored with questionable grain kernels for preservation purposes that is the concern of the star K so it that case it may needed to be checked like Spheradim do rice. Secondly, if it a brand of pure quinoa some people consider to be kitniyos for various different reasons. Finally, their are shetios that claimed potatoes were kitniyos for two different reasons also, however the universal opinion with potatoes is otherwise. However I do not believe that making potato bread which I love is aloud on Pesach and I never heard of anyone that ate potato bread. However, I do not every kelluah , minhag or chumarh when it comes to Pesach their are many more then most people are aware of.
It is not mitzvah to cover your hair its part of being orthdox jewish women. According to any of the great lists of mitzvos of the rishnoim does it list covering your hair as one of them. I’m not questioning if it a mitzvah or not I just do not think it is a prerequisite to convert in order for a wman to cover their hair
please just learn Daf 68a in Shabbos with Tosfos and learn about the case about a convert who converted in a city of non-jews and somehow never learned about shabbos and it is still a kosher conversion.
Besides that fact I know many modern orthodox jews hat never covered their hair in the first place and that is the way these people were raised in their communities. Leave Brooklyn and go to modern orthodox communities in south or west and even some communities in New jersey and Queens a majority of the Jewish women do not cover their and they may even wear pants. I’m not saying I agree with what they do but this is a fact and these people in all other respects are orthdox jews and they believe that they are orthdox jews.
So please stop this idea of assuming if a women doesn’t cover her hair it makes her a questionable convert because it doesn’t. Also it is not one of the 613 mitzvos to cover her hair and it is only a das yehudis and has a lot more to do with then just tziyus. Because if a girl covered her hair only for tziyus reasons unmarried women would have cover their hair and shetels would be a problem.
This a Term 4(3m^3)^2 which you want to simplify
You need to two different ideas to simplify this term
1. The Order of Operations (PEMDAS)
2. Laws of Exponents
So first lets use the order of operations. So lets first use the outside exponent which after the paratheses. Since the exponent is outside the parentheses it applies both to the 3 and to m^3. 3^2 = 9 and (m^3)^2 = m^6. Because one of the rules of exponents says if you have power raised to another power you multiply the powers. Then the final step is multiplication. So now multiply 4 * 9 * m^6 and you get 36m^6.
If you want an explanation of the laws of exponents or PEMDAS in more depth just ask.
Or any other math help any level I would love to help.
clamping your chest may be a minhag, however it most probably is a minhag yisreal since almost every jew does it. It is based on a gemarah. The gemarah is in berachos 7a
Yes you do clap your chest just eventually you notice your mistake and start saying atah kedastah. However hopefully you notice your mistake before shema koleniu because you should really not say shema koleniu on shabbos
If they were lit already for a half hour you do not need to re light them. However for hiddur mitzvah you can re light the candle as long one of the candles is still lit just make sure to use the fire from the shamesh to re light it.
in my opinion a boy should start going to shul on shabbos when he is 8 years old for at least part of the davening.
If someone can bring him to shul for the last half hour in the beginning and eventually by the time he is 11 and half you work him up to staying the whole 2 hours for shabbos davening.
If their is a shabbos drasha never except him to stay in for that until he is over 13 and even then it may be best let him go outside.
According to many rabbionim now days smoking is a major issur may even be a issur desorsah to start. Quiting once you started is another issue I went to whole shiur on problem of smoking today.
Many boys I know do not smoke and the ones that do a lot of them try very hard to hide from there wives or tell their wives they are going to quit. I personally believe smoking in a way is issur desorsah because you cannot purposely cause yourself harm.
In my opinion you should not tell the girl that he smokes but he should be willing to admit it if she does ask. Because I know many guys would deny it. It beginning trust matters a lot.
The Channukah in the white house has been for almost 10 years on the first or second Sunday of December regardless of when Channukah has fallen out this all nonsense this has nothing to do with President Obama this is when the White House their Channukah party.
I bet people will make a big deal then the white house their mock passover seder usually a a week after Pesach and ask why it was not on Pesach itself.
You guys are arguing about nonsense.
Now his jokes may have been an issue but that is a completely different problem.
The min shir I have heard from my rav is at the bone. There is a bone right by your ear canal the peyios have go a little beyond that. Also a 3 or 2 is the thickness of the hair by the payios I agree they should be a 3 maybe even a 4, but I have never asked my rav how tick they should be by the bone, but he did tell me that is the point where they must grow.
In flatbush their are a few barber shops that have a sign explaining the halachos of peyios that you can look that if you do not have a local orthodox rabbi to ask this question to.
something based on sakana is never batal. Does this sakana apply today that is a very complicated issue i seems but i never heard otherwise that it stopped applying
I’m not pasking halcah in this case im just telling you what I have learned to be true.
batel b’shishim only works for accidents not if you want to do it on purpose
