Reb EliezerParticipant
I think the Baal Hatanya says ואהבת לרעך כמוך you should love your fellow man like you, he is just like you, he also has a chelek elokai mimaal, a neshomo.
Reb EliezerParticipantIt says literally והייתם נקיים be clean.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Ben Ish Chai says, עבירה stands for הב ירע when someone says constantly, give me, is and will be bad.
Reb EliezerParticipantIt is the question of the Taz why on Purim the emphasis is on mishteh vesimdha whereas Chanukah lehodos ulehalel? He explains, that on Purim, Haman wanted to destroy their body but Chanukah, the yevonim wanted to destroy their soul. It says in Pirkei Avos, wild animal comes to the world for swearing falsely. Asks the Binah Leitim, why it says comes to the world? He answers that the person not speaking properly, himself, turns into a wild animal, so it is important for us on Chanukah to cleanse ourselves spiritually by cleansing our mouths.

see https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/general/1813010/rav-chaim-kanievsky-shlita-on-chanukah.htmlReb EliezerParticipantsyag, A smart person knows what he does not know and will not argue.
Reb EliezerParticipantSyag – Did you see the WAPO that the Ukranean election interference is a russian Putin talking point which never happened?
Reb EliezerParticipanthuju, see Yechaveh Daas 3,84 discussing this question in detail.
Reb EliezerParticipantsyag, two wrongs don’t make a right. If there is an investigation, we should do it here and not in Ukrane, we don’t spread out our dirty laundry.
Reb EliezerParticipantObama never gave military assistance to Ukrane, so we can argue whether it was good or bad, but Trump, who gave before why dd he stop giving? Was it because Biden became his opponent?
Reb EliezerParticipantAfter Shabsei Tzvi both the GRA and the Noda Beyehudah were afraid that the chassidim will revitalize him.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhen it comes to the economy look at the national debt?
Reb EliezerParticipantklugeryiid, why did he give Ukrane aid before Zelinky to a corrupt president?
Reb EliezerParticipantClinton had a big yetzer hara but he did not curse in public, make fun of handicapped people and speak on the dead.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe reform argument is that the times have changed, but the Torah is above time. It maybe implied in איש עיתי המדברה a person going after the times, belongs in the desert.
Reb EliezerParticipantקבעת עתים לתורה translated to steal time for learning Torah.
Reb EliezerParticipantI think the Ran was an add on with the Rif. Many gemoras don’t have it. The Rosh is earlier in time than the Maharsha. The Maharsha is primarily on Tosfas or Agodas of the gemora complicated to learn because of its conciseness. The other meforshim came later in time. When it comes to halacha, when two of the three, Rif, Rambam and Rosh agree, Rav Yosef Karo, the mechaber of the Shulchan Aruch, paskens like them. The Rosh escaped to Spain, so the sefardim accept him also.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe acronym for the six mishnayos sedorim is זמן נקט to grab on to time and don’t waste it.
Reb EliezerParticipantעת לעשות לה’ הפרו תורתך when we make time for Hashem (meaning I stiil have time to do a mitzva), will eventually not be done. Midrash Shmuel
Reb EliezerParticipantCR Birthday People, To give a brocho surely not affecting bechira, Hashem Yisborach should give you the knowledge and proper understanding to do what is His ratzon and does nachas ruach for Him.
לראש – לעשות רצון אבינו שבשמיםReb EliezerParticipantWhen it comes to bechira will say what Reb Moshe ztz’l said in his teshuva when it comes to raising children, rewording it, it should be half perspiration and half inspiration. Put in your effort and daven that it should bear fruits. So our bracha is that after you put in your effort in your desire, it should bear fruits.
Reb EliezerParticipantGH, the question of the litvak was if he was a mazik? How are you so sure he is responsible?
Reb EliezerParticipantGH, There was a yekke who asked, was it baked well?
December 19, 2019 10:45 pm at 10:45 pm in reply to: Is it assur to use an air fryer during channukah? #1812511Reb EliezerParticipantGoldilocks. it does not say drench it oil which is unhealthy, when the minhag was established, there was no air fryer which happens to use some oil.
Reb EliezerParticipantTrump is not one to learn from how to respect the dead.
Reb EliezerParticipantSomeone tweeted, for once in his life Trump got something he earned.
December 19, 2019 2:16 pm at 2:16 pm in reply to: Applesauce on latkes is better than sour cream: Prove me wrong. #1812332Reb EliezerParticipantTastes differ. I don’t like sour cream and like apple sauce.
December 19, 2019 2:16 pm at 2:16 pm in reply to: Is it assur to use an air fryer during channukah? #1812325Reb EliezerParticipantWhy woud it be assur? The mitzva of eating healthy should override any issur.
Reb EliezerParticipantAnother suggestion for english translated seforim new Daroshes Horan from Artscroll.
Reb EliezerParticipantTo have a happy marriage, think of the mezuza. Some say to place it vertically and others say to place it horizantilly, so we make a compromise and place it slented. Similarly, marriage will need much compromise. It is called nisuyin meaning elevate. To have a happy marriage, you must place each other on a pedestal.
Reb EliezerParticipantworldwatcher, everything is not so simple. It matters why you are unhappy. If you are unhappy being alone, marriage will help you, otherwise, it might not.
Reb EliezerParticipantNot producing witnesses and documents is similar to killing the parents and screaming, I am an orphan, so don’t touch me.
Reb EliezerParticipantsyag, how do you explain Trump’s pattern of behavior and his own admissions? הודעת בעל דין כמאה עדים דמי
Reb EliezerParticipantAbout pressure ond Zelinsky, when you push someone to the wall strong enough, eventually he will scream ‘uncle’. He was afraid to say I was pressured in order not to anger Trump.
Reb EliezerParticipantAs the moderaton in CR, we would need a hechshar on the books. There is nothing wrong with an essay by Helen Keller of Three Days to See where she provides an appreciation for our sight.
Reb EliezerParticipantSadei Chemed – 10 volumes which discusses different topics in hebrew alphabetic order.
Reb EliezerParticipantSomeone in the impeachment proceedings of the house said we are not impeaching the president, he is impeaching himself.
Reb EliezerParticipantGH, Not every one has been following those proceedings, so they want to show that there is a reason for their action.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe 25th word in Parashas Breishis יהי ‘אור’ ויהי אור , if we pray for light, we get light. This is an implication of finding hidden secrets in the Torah with the power of the hidden light.
Reb EliezerParticipantNot going to the courts reminds me year 2000, Bush vs Gore, where the Supreme Court selected the president.
Reb EliezerParticipantrational, you have fabricated a new halacha, if one makes a mistake (which usually happens by not being alert enough) you can embarrass him publicly.
Reb EliezerParticipantAmeica is now Babel. Whoever moves from Babel to EY violates an Asei because we must stay in CH’L until Meshiach arrives.
December 18, 2019 1:44 pm at 1:44 pm in reply to: Important shidduch questions during hannukah! #1811866Reb EliezerParticipantknaidlach, שתהי שלהבת עולה מאליה the light should catch on by itself.
December 18, 2019 1:43 pm at 1:43 pm in reply to: Important shidduch questions during hannukah! #1811865Reb EliezerParticipantThe custom to relight candles in the shul in the morning according to the Sheorim Metzuyonim Behalacha on the Kitzur is based on the above Rambam. Even though it might not be seen in the light, but it is done for zecher lemikdash and not for parsumei nisei, I explained.
Reb EliezerParticipantrational, thank you for making fun of my misspelling. Your actions are very rational.
December 17, 2019 7:45 pm at 7:45 pm in reply to: Important shidduch questions during hannukah! #1811649Reb EliezerParticipantYou should use new wicks for hiddur mitzva. In the Beis Hamikdash there was a mitzva of hatovas neros to replace the old wicks. According to the Rambam, Hilchas Temidim Umusofim 3,12 if it went out, ithey would clean it, replace it and relight it in the morning, but the Rashba holds that they would relight it in the afternoon.
Reb EliezerParticipantMusic is the universal language which everyone can understand whether it is happy or sad which affects the spirit.
Reb EliezerParticipantI agree with knaidllach that love comes after marriage. It says Breishis 24,67 Yitzchok brough Rivkah to the tent of his mother Sara, he took Rivkah as his wife and came to love her thereby consoling himself after his mother.
The Ohr Hachaim Hakadosh gives two reasons why Yaakov Avinu loved Rachel, one, not because of her beauty but being his besherte, two. beauty was against resisting yetzer hara by not desiring someone beautiful. He saw her as a cheftzei shel mitzva.Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a hungarian proverb, whoever has butter on his head should not go under the sun. President Trump do you have butter on your head?
Reb EliezerParticipantThey don’t allow first hand witnesses and complain that impeachment has not been properly proven.
