Say Tehilim 83 which is good to say everyday but especially now.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe say it with a segol as it is in Artscrol Sidurim. The Chasam Sofer questions it should have said במאמרו? He answers that it refers to our abilities we can also accomplish with our mouths. To explain what he means, the targum on ויפח באפיו נשמת חיים, Hashem blew in him soul of life, says the ability to speak. Now if someone blews, he blews from himself. If Hashem has the abilities to create things with His mouth, then we should also be able to do that, but we have besmudged our mouths.
Reb EliezerParticipantI think that shema only refers to the first parasha whereas krias shema refers to all three.
The pasuk תהלים פרק מ
אַתָּ֤ה יְדֹוָ֗ד לֹא־תִכְלָ֣א רַחֲמֶ֣יךָ מִמֶּ֑נִּי חַסְדְּךָ֥ וַ֝אֲמִתְּךָ֗ תָּמִ֥יד יִצְּרֽוּנִי:
You, Hashem don’t stop with providing mercy to me, Your favor and Your truth should constantly protect me.
This refers to the Torah. The daf yomi will provide through searching of the truth, mercy and chesed from Hashem., It adds up to 2711 as the number of dapim in shas.Reb EliezerParticipantklugeryid, if the two things are different (looking and mixing) then the Rambam is contradicting himself. In the commentary on the Mishnayos Sukkah (5,2) he says שלא יסתכלו whereas in Hilchas Lulav (8,12) says שלא יתערבו.
Reb EliezerParticipantklugeryid, why does Reb Moshe ztz’l come to the conclusion that Rashi and the Rambam in Sukkah are arguing? Maybe Rashi might hold that if you stare. you will mix, so if you see through is not a kosher mechitza as the Tosfas Yom Tov?
Reb EliezerParticipantxara, never mind, the Sefer Hatanya.
Reb EliezerParticipantxara, printed where?
Reb EliezerParticipantklugeryid, Doesn’t a shul have a responsibility to build it the proper way that the women should not be seen? Are the women right when they say don’t look?
Reb EliezerParticipantklugeryid, Reb Moshe ztz’l uses this logic, don’t look, even though in a shul because of its sanctity the yetzer hara is stronger.
The following are the words:
שו”ת אגרות משה אורח חיים חלק א סימן מ
בכל מקום שהוא דין על האנשים שלא יסתכלו בהן כמו ברחובות ואם יש מי שיעבור ויסתכל בכוונה לראות ליהנות אין אנו אחראין להםReb EliezerParticipantThe Klei Yokor in Parashas Devorim on פנו לכם צפונה saiys that it happens because of jealousy. Aisov is jealous on Yaakov and therefore, hates him, so we should not show off in galus but act it a hidden way.
Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a apparent argument between Rambam, Tosefos Yom Tov one view and Rashi about a mechitza what is its purpose. Rashi says not to mix whereas the Tosfas Yom Tov says not to stare. What happens when it is good for separation but not for looking being not tall enough or with holes in it? Reb Moshe ztz’l says that as long it separates and don’t look. There was a ruling in 1866 by the abour 200 rabonim, in a place callled Mihelowiz, that in a shul not having a proper Mechitza where the men can see the women, one should not daven there even if he must daven on his own Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
Reb EliezerParticipantTrump is an expert in projecton. He is projecting his faults onto the other. כל הפוסל במומו פוסל Whoever degrades the other, degrades him with his own faults.
Reb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantThis rampant anti semitism feeds on itself. If they can get away with it, this will continue. Now, Jews should not go out at night alone especially women.
Reb EliezerParticipantשלך אי אתה רואה אבל אתה רואה של אחרים ושל גבוה – gemora Pesochim – you don’t see your own faults, but see the faults of others and especially the holy.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat you are saying is a Klei Yokor in Parashas Devorim on פנו לכם צפונה turn to the hidden.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe current parsha miketz מקץ stands for קןל, צום, ממון but the poor have no money, so it remains קץ שם לחשך.
Reb EliezerParticipantזאת gematria 3(136)=408 קול, צום, ממון – תשובה, תפילה, צדקה
Reb EliezerParticipantLook how Trump is dismantling the ACA health care. First gets rid of the mandate in his tax law, then he says now you have no mandate, so the rest is no good without a mandate and therefore it should be abolished.
Reb EliezerParticipantPesach above is not a good example as the eight day is because of sefeka deyome.
Reb EliezerParticipantכל הפוסל במומו פוסל – gemora – whoever degrades the other, degrades him with his own faults.
Reb EliezerParticipantTo listen, be silent.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe above is from the Sefer Peninim Yekorim in the lekutim on Maseches Brochos, also explaining a talmid chacham should have an eight of an eight, 8(8) = 64, 6+4 =10, 1+0=1 the smallest integral number. I said to remember the need for the ס’ד 64 סיעתא דשמיא – ר”ת
Reb EliezerParticipant8 is the most powerful number lemaaleh min hatevah, as the mispar katan of Hashem, bris, Chanukah, Pesach, sukkos.
8 (1) =8, 8(2) = 16, 1+6 = 7, 8(3) = 24, 2+4 = 6, 8(4) = 32, 3+2 =5 and so on going down to 1 and starting up with 9 then 8 and so on
26(1)=26, 2+6=8, 26(2)=52, 5+2=7,26(3)=78, 7+8=15, 1+5=6 and so on
This is what Rebbi Yochanan says wherever you find a multiple of HKBH, it will become smaller.Reb EliezerParticipantWe can learn from peoples and animals behavior good, what to do, or bad, what not to do.
Reb EliezerParticipantMaybe, Trump is the traitor whose policies endanger our national security? His experienced advisers quit on him because they can’t take his tunnel vision policies living the Kurds in Syria and Ukrane hanging. We have a Hungarian saying, don’t throw out the dirty water until you have clean. Don’t break treaties until you have replacements. We are more in danger than ever with North Korea, Russia, China and Iran.
December 26, 2019 8:05 pm at 8:05 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814573Reb EliezerParticipantsyag, If someone is a baal gaiva, he will do and justify everything to protect himself. לית דין ולית דיין as Louis XIV said I am the state.
Reb EliezerParticipantGH, I don’t know which Bush you mean 41 or 43 as there is no 47?
Reb EliezerParticipantI wrote something in #1814498 that makes no sense. I meant to answer for 1 that she was not underage but 22.
Reb EliezerParticipantElchonon, I think the Rambam in the Moreh Nevuchim, the Malbim quoted above, the Sefer Habris believe that it is a mitzva to reconcile if we can. The Ramban by orlah says that treifos are not healthy. We have a rule עולם כמנהגו נוהג. The gemora in Shabbos at story of the man nursing, one view is how ugly it is that nature had to change for him because he will lose his zechusim. Something like Darvin’s theory is against modern science as Newton said I am standing on great shoulders indicating that peiple before him were smarter. The Klei Yokor in Parashas Chukas uses the theory of Newton before him, opposites react by explaining the functioning of the parah aduma to a certain extent.
Reb EliezerParticipantTrump was not under age at 22.
December 26, 2019 2:44 pm at 2:44 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814473Reb EliezerParticipantIt makes him anti semitic by supporting anti semites.
December 26, 2019 12:29 pm at 12:29 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814400Reb EliezerParticipantSyag, don’t you remember Trump encouraging people to punch each other and offers to pay their legal bills?
December 26, 2019 12:17 pm at 12:17 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814388Reb EliezerParticipantRechavom split up the Eretz Yisroel because he listened to young inexperienced advisers, similarly Trump fired or encouraged his top experienced advisers to resign. How can you make a good decision?
December 26, 2019 12:17 pm at 12:17 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814387Reb EliezerParticipantI know about the violence in YWN. I said that Trump should be impeached for idiocy making himself look like he is guilty. Similarly, even though he surely is not an anti-semite, but he makes himself look like one.
December 26, 2019 11:39 am at 11:39 am in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814376Reb EliezerParticipantSyag, We have never had so much violence against Jews. By not standing up strongly against them, you make it look that you approve of it and encourage it.
December 26, 2019 10:58 am at 10:58 am in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814367Reb EliezerParticipantObama and Clinton have never shown openly that they support the white nationalist. We don’t have to supporr Israel blindly in everything they do as Trump makes us believe that it is anti-semitism to disagree with them.
December 26, 2019 10:47 am at 10:47 am in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814355Reb EliezerParticipantWe know Trump has a narcisistic personal disorder, but is he also schizophrenic?
December 26, 2019 10:40 am at 10:40 am in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814347Reb EliezerParticipantklugeryid, you tell me, if he is for the Jews, why does he give the impression that he is with the white nationalists, who hate the Jews?
December 26, 2019 10:34 am at 10:34 am in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814344Reb EliezerParticipantTrump only cares about his own interest, caring less for the country.
December 26, 2019 9:12 am at 9:12 am in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814318Reb EliezerParticipantFor the above, I agree with laughing, he is oheiv es atzmo, אוהב את עצמו.
December 25, 2019 8:13 pm at 8:13 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814251Reb EliezerParticipantTrump wants to look good in front of the Jews, He encourages anti-semitism by siding with the white nationalists in Charleston, NC and then he does an executive order to stop it.
December 25, 2019 6:35 pm at 6:35 pm in reply to: Dreidel & Kvitlech – The Official Rules of the Game #1814241Reb EliezerParticipantThe dreidel usually a ג – ganz , whole , you receive everything in the bank, ה – halb , half, you receive half, ש – schtell hinein (arain) , place the designated amount in the bank, נ – nothing, you lose your turn.
Kvitlach – you must get 21 to win, if you stop and the banker deals and catches up (more or equal) he wins. If you have twenty one, you say twenty one and you win before the banker deals . If you or the banker have more than 21 they lose.
December 25, 2019 6:35 pm at 6:35 pm in reply to: Dreidel & Kvitlech – The Official Rules of the Game #1814240Reb EliezerParticipantThe Mechaber C’M 207, 16 says that if you make a proclamation to be mochel from then (meachshov) , it works, so does the SMA in s’k 46.
Reb EliezerParticipantJoseph, so why is he quite and misleading?
December 25, 2019 4:48 pm at 4:48 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814220Reb EliezerParticipantHow does he penalize them?
December 25, 2019 4:46 pm at 4:46 pm in reply to: Dreidel & Kvitlech – The Official Rules of the Game #1814211Reb EliezerParticipantWith these games, we have a problem with asmachte lo kanye. Can the person say ahead of the game, whatever someone wins I am mochel?
Reb EliezerParticipantThis desentisising is also true in rock and roll.
Reb EliezerParticipantCS, Are you speaking from knowledge? The Rambam says at the end of 17th Perek of Hilchas Kiddush Hachodash that when it comes to Math, we can rely on the goyim because a logical proof is impartial towards religion. Look at the sefer Habris from the 18th century encompassing all the knowledge of his time. So, we cannot generalize but everything must be judged on its merit. When it comes to classics, read a summary by google it, and then decide.
Reb EliezerParticipantStopping needs a good explanation whereas not giving is easier to explain fearing war escalation.
