Why do MPC and 2C4U seem to be the same character?
I think it would be fair to say that if the coin had been reversed, and the OP had been complaining about a vindictive ex-husband, rather than a vindictive ex-wife, that many of the same people beating up on the OP for “not knowing the ex-wife’s side of the story” would NOT have had the same reaction and cried about “not knowing the ex-husband’s side of the story”.
BTW, the majority of Americans living in Israel are New Yorkers. So I would have to say Abe is correct in that NYers are quicker to move to EY, while OOTers are too comfortable where they are.
What are the Gedolim of the past 2000 years and the Gedolim of today’s “excuse”?
Next excuse.
One doesn’t need any excuses.
Of course shidduchim are more numerous in NY.
old man: You need some respect for the Poskim of Klal Yisroel, the Bach and those since. You aren’t anyone to challange the Bach. Nor do you have subsequent Ashkenazic poskim who dispute it. So you have no grounds, and your “opinions” are without meaning.
Obviously a witch. What more is there to say unfortunately?
Jews always wore a hat or other head covering. (Aside/addition to a yarmulka.) The only thing that changed over time was what type of hat or other head covering it was.
Having “read books on the history of psak” is absolutely meaningless. Show us teshuvos, not history lessons.
anon: The Jews always dressed differently than the goyim. Only the details of how they dressed differently have changed over time.
Of course if the house is in the mother-in-laws name, the son may decide he doesn’t want to pay the monthly mortgage for a house he doesn’t own — and rather his mother-in-law, who doesn’t trust him, owns. Why should he pay for his mother-in-laws house?
If someone makes geders, fences, to keep him away from where he shouldn’t be, that is very praiseworthy.
Sephardim and Ashkenazim have different customs regarding Chodosh.
The Bach didn’t premise his psak on the availability of Yoshon. And speculating whether it was or wasn’t available in his (or the Rema’s) is entirely pointless.
The Bach’s ruling stands. (Especially considering few or none of the contemporary Gedolei Poskim in Ashkenaz challenge it today.)
Many of the things being mentioned closed only in the last few years.
anon1m0us: In Egypt the Jews dressed differently than the goyim, and today with their hats and jackets dress differently than the goyim. We should always dress differently than the goyim.
Yoshon wasn’t available in the Bach or Rema’s time?
How could anyone consider someone who wears a yarmulka while parading in the toeiva parade while proudly waving the toeiva rainbow flag??
The most “tactful way” to tell your son-in-law that you don’t trust him, don’t trust his marriage to your daughter, but want him to pay the monthly mortgage payments on a house that you refuse to allow be his (i.e. he should pay someone else’s monthly mortgage payments) and you want to enforce that he forever live in your neighborhood?
Just be honest with him. You truly give mother-in-laws the good name they are known for.
I’m not sure why aries is bringing pre-nups into the discussion, especially considering that the OP is discussing an existing marriage not a pending one, nevertheless since the point was raised it is incumbant that it be pointed out that Rav Elyashev paskened that if there is a rca-type prenup involved, then any subsequent get may halachicly be considered a “get me’usa” and thus potentially a halachicly invalid get, and any subsequent children of hers (if she remarries based on it) mamzeirim.
The larger issue is this woman’s mistrust of her own son-in-law, to the point of pre-anticipating a divorce. The second issue is her controlling nature in attempting for force them to live in her neighborhood, by provisioning a recall of the money if they G-d forbid decide to live elsewhere, without Mrs. Mother-in-laws pre-approval.
She is supposed to follow her husband’s minhag on candle lighting and hair covering, just like everything else.
There is no reason the son-in-law should be paying the mortgage, with his income, for a house that is being made clear is not his. Perhaps Mrs. Mother-in-Law has the income to be making the monthly mortgage payments.
The Internet has a filter at the ISP level that prevents any sites that are not on the approved list. No TV has that. You C”V bring a TV into your home, you can be absolutely certain of the negative consequences both you and your family will inevitably suffer. Same with movies. Other — perhaps — than cartoons, no movie running in the theatures in the last 20 years have been kosher. Full of all the things I mentioned.
cinderella: At least you are on the level to admit that movies are a “big yeitzer hara”. Some people bury their head in the sand so deep they can’t even yet see that. Now you need just working on eliminating that yeitzer hara.
I second flyer’s comment. I am appalled at the OP’s attitude.
If you try to pull off this stunt, I hope your son-in-law makes clear he will not be paying the monthly mortgage for the house you refuse to allow to be in his name.
There is no “correct” or “incorrect” way to transliterate Hebrew to English. There are no formal rules.
Can a Kohein be a Hatzalah member, considering that will place him in hospitals with the deceased often?
Rav Moshe’s word is generally the final word in Chutz L’Aretz, and generally in Eretz Yisroel as well. On this matter, as well as most others. Rav Waldenberg’s position on this matter is not generally accepted as a rule, in deference to Rav Moshe’s whose is.
Movies and TV are full of pritzus, violence, shmutz, immorality, promotion of bad behavior, toeiva, and much much worse.
Personally, I believe Jewish men should wear their hat anytime they are in public. Aside it being the traditional dress of Jewish men to always wear a hat, it makes a distinction between Jew and Gentile, as our clothes always have throughout our history from Egypt on.
Why should anyone go away for Shabbos Nachamu? Is something wrong with home sweet home?
Isn’t the CR more fun anyways? Plus, it’s real time, not just weekly.
So what’s the point? The equipment the CY milk goes through isn’t Cholov Yisroel anyways.
No. Just like you shouldn’t daven to win the lottery or be able to afford a Lexus or to have Strawberry ice cream for dessert.
apy: The stores do not report to anyone which brands they sold with WIC. So neither the government nor the manufacturers know how much was sold under WIC.
p.s. the next time i went to that store, the owner told me that tropicana was not a choice anymore.
Actually Tropicana IS a choice. The “juice” food on the check allows ANY BRAND. (Unlike cereal, formula, and some other food items.) The problem with Tropicana is they reduced their juice bottles from 64 oz. to 59 oz. and the checks specify 64 oz. juice bottle.
I don’t understand the Raavad’s kasha. By an unintentional murder we permit his blood to the goel hadam even if there is NO witnesses (and he admits he killed someone unintentionally), no? So why should an intentional murderer need a higher standard than an unintentional killer?
Col sheKain an intentional killer is a “marked man”.
IOW, an intentional killer who beis din can’t execute (i.e. no hasra or only one witness) can be killed by the goel hadam.
I find almost all of the Jewish entertainment industry performers to be lacking in their activities.
ef: They restrict it to certain brands because those manafacturers pay the State to do that. i.e. Kellog’s only but no General Mills.
So the Rambam is saying that the Goel Hadam can kill a murderer who didn’t receive hasra or only had one witness. Does the Beis Din, when acquitting the perpetrator from the death penalty (due to a lack of warning), still issue a determination of guilt on the defendent that, even though he is not executed, he is not acquitted? And then the Goel Hadam can kill the murderer who didn’t receive hasra (or only had one witness).
Welcome to the summer.
Is the consensus that the Goel Hadam can exact revenge on an intentional murderer who doesn’t have the protection of the Ir Miklat? (As ajewfrommonsey maintains.)
