Reb EliezerParticipant
We say עצתו אמונה פעולתו אמת if we ask advice from Hashem Yisborach, He suggests to have emunah because He does things without any personel benefit in mind.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe name Tzvi which I am called. adds up to emunah and makes up the צדיק באמונתו יחיה.
Reb EliezerParticipantAs mentioned by the Rabbenu Bachaye this week that adonai is plural, so Rav Tzvi Pesach Frank ztz’l says that ashkenazim should be careful how they pronounce Hashem’s name as noi and not nai.
Reb EliezerParticipantcoffee addict, you are mistaken. It does not mean that hatred that is not baseless is mutar just that the Torah wants us to resolve it by not keeping it bottled up in the heart by admonishing each other. This can only be done if there is a reason for the hatred. See the Yad Yoseph on the Ein Yaakov Yome 9. also the Rashbam on the pasuk, Vayikro 19,17.
Reb EliezerParticipantMaybe through the above that we can come to the recognition of Hashem from our walking, we can explain the midrash on it which asks whether we can do kabolas ol malchus shomayim when walking, the midrash says that we cannot, we must stay still but the rest from veohavto we can either stand or walk. We can’t have the proper kavono when we walk even though it brings us to come to realize the existence of Hashem.
Reb EliezerParticipantlaughing, be careful to use a capital letter when referring to Hashem.
November 13, 2019 10:45 am at 10:45 am in reply to: $5,000.000 donated to Trump by Orthodox Jews, can we afford it? #1800260Reb EliezerParticipantThey are out for their own benefit as Trump is.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Ramban asks, why doesn’t it say veohwvto reacha? He answers it is impossible to love your fellow man like yourself since a person is closest to himself. The Sefer Habris explains that the Torah commands him that what he expects his friend should do to him, he should do to his friend.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Rabbenu Bechaye in Parshes Ki Siso says on ולא יהיה בהם נגף בפקוד אותם, if you look at the Jews as a whole, you find no faults in them, but if you count them normally, you separate the bad from the good. They say that is why Bolok only wanted Bilom to see part of the Bnei Yisroel, because Bilom cannot affect the whole. So as a whole, we love all Jews.
Reb EliezerParticipantI don’t know the truth of this story, they asked the Satmar Rav ztz’l if there is a chasan and a bar mitzva who gets maftir? He answered, whoever is older.
Reb EliezerParticipantA tinuk shenishbo and a Torah following Jew, yes but ומשנאך ה’ אשנא and OTD who studied in Yeshivas is hard to love.
Reb EliezerParticipantLook up the book Kehilos Hungaria under Satmar Nemeti Page 279 says that it was first inhabited by Jews in 1820. The Jews were chased out in 1715.
Reb EliezerParticipantZionGate, well said, דרך ארץ קדמה לתורה

Reb EliezerParticipantklugeryid, I don’t know what you talking about. Is it bad because it bankrupts the country or it does not cover the necessities, then why is it popular?
Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a Midrash peliah, אמרי נא אחותי את – מכאן ששוחטים לחולה בשבת, the Rav Chezkuni asks how do we know that Avraham Avinu will be killed. maybe they will commit adultary? Then they wil sin at every beila, but when they kill him will be one sin. Similarly, the Ran asks why do we slaughter for the sick on shabbos and don’t give him nevelah? Then he would sin with eating every kezayis. Therefore, it is better to do one sin then multiple and since Avraham Avinu was afraid they will kill him, we slaughter on shabbos rather than give nevalah.
Reb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantLech Lecha:
דע מה למעלה ממך – You can conclude from the fact that you can walk that there is a Universal Mover, as the Rambam says that if something moves, someone had to put it in motion. (Sefer Amudeho Shivo)
Reb EliezerParticipantNoach:
Chasam Sofer says that if tzohar is a window or a precious stone is dependent whether we judge Noach for praise or shame. Only a truly pious person saved on his own zechusim can see the destruction of the wicked. Lot and his wife were not allowed to look back. If he judged for praise, it was a window, otherwise it was a precious stone, so he could not see through.Reb EliezerParticipantBereishis:
שלוחו של אדם כמותו – Adam Harishon was suppose to die when he ate from the eitz hadaas. The fact that he was thrown out of the gaan eden was considered as he died.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Artscroll Mikraos Gedolos has morei and the DBS whereas the Bar Ilan has morad. I checked an old sefer for all chumoshium published 1928 by Chorav in Berlin has morei in it. Many others have also morei in it.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Yismadh Moshe was not from Satmar but Ujhely.
Reb EliezerParticipantSatmar used to be ashkanaz under Rav Yehuda Gruenwald.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe targum on בן סורר ומורה says סטי ומרי satu umare. St. Mary, Satmar
November 7, 2019 12:18 pm at 12:18 pm in reply to: Can you request an online purchase for delivery on shabbos?? #1798313Reb EliezerParticipantAmazon prime is accelerating for anytime, so you are not mechaven for shabbos, and we have amira deamira from erev shabbos. the goy does it for his own benefit payed a fixed amount ahead of time should be mutar.
November 6, 2019 11:51 pm at 11:51 pm in reply to: Can you request an online purchase for delivery on shabbos?? #1798096Reb EliezerParticipantEven it is guaranteed, the person who brings the package to you is not the one you talked to, so this is an amira deamira before shabbos and by paying extra reflects a great need which would be mutar as the goy is doing it
for his own benefit and the payment is agreed on before hand.November 6, 2019 6:45 pm at 6:45 pm in reply to: Can you request an online purchase for delivery on shabbos?? #1798043Reb EliezerParticipantIf sent express, there must be a great need, otherwise why pay extra and the Minchas Yitzchok is matir in that case, otherwise it is not guaranteed that it will arrive on shabbos.
November 6, 2019 6:18 pm at 6:18 pm in reply to: Can you request an online purchase for delivery on shabbos?? #1798034Reb EliezerParticipantDY, you yourself said above that there is no garantee from the Post Office.
November 6, 2019 11:50 am at 11:50 am in reply to: Can you request an online purchase for delivery on shabbos?? #1797907Reb EliezerParticipantDY See Chasam Sofer O’CH 60 who says that amira deamira erev shabbos is mutar.
Reb EliezerParticipantA rose among the thorns makes it grow sttaight. Pain helps us become rightous. It brings us closer to Hashem.
Reb EliezerParticipantJoseph, I don’t agree with him. Not everybody is suitable for sitting and learning. Learning chemistry we see the greatness of our Creator having a miniature solar system in every atom. String theory shows that Hashem put his energy into everything. Math is required for the the gemora.
November 5, 2019 10:30 am at 10:30 am in reply to: Can you request an online purchase for delivery on shabbos?? #1797526Reb EliezerParticipantThe US Post Office does it for there benefit and the majority are non-Jews. See SA O’CH 247,1.
November 4, 2019 10:54 am at 10:54 am in reply to: Can the severity of a sin be learned from the severity of the punishment? #1797069Reb EliezerParticipantRemeber Rashi משם הפיצם how unity saves one from even ע’ז . At the dor hafloga, to punish them, the unity was first brokeb up. So how great is unity towards the good.
Reb EliezerParticipantAbout standing by Kadish see Yechave Daas (3,4) the sefardim don’t stand up but if standing, stay standing until daamiron.
November 1, 2019 11:16 am at 11:16 am in reply to: Is playing a musical instrument a negative??? #1796492Reb EliezerParticipantThey say a clown has olam habo because he makes people happy.
November 1, 2019 10:39 am at 10:39 am in reply to: Is playing a musical instrument a negative??? #1796471Reb EliezerParticipantGood to know how to play the piano, one of the seven chochmas.
November 1, 2019 9:14 am at 9:14 am in reply to: Is playing a musical instrument a negative??? #1796457Reb EliezerParticipantMusic shows the greatness of the RBSO the level of eight.
Reb EliezerParticipantMix it into Gatorade not red and it will not tastte so bad.
Reb EliezerParticipantSee the Yechaveh Daas from Rav Ovadya Yosef (5,11) who says to stay standing until Hakel Hakadash. See the RMA 124,4.
October 30, 2019 3:26 pm at 3:26 pm in reply to: Out of Town – Chassidish community options? #1795890Reb EliezerParticipantStaten Island Willowbrook area has become chasidish recently.
Reb EliezerParticipantYaakov Avinu said krias shema when he saw Josef to show that his first love was to the Hashem.
Reb EliezerParticipantAbout kissing children in shul, see the RMA O”CH 98,1.
Reb EliezerParticipantJoseph, holding is one thing, but kissing is another thing.
Reb EliezerParticipantOur LOR spoke about the phone in his Shabbos Teshuva drasha.
Reb EliezerParticipantI found the Tzitz Eliezer (13,67) who allows removing decorations from this sukkah and hanging it into another sukkah, so obviously as mentioned above there is no problem moving it somewhere else in the same sukkah.
October 28, 2019 12:55 pm at 12:55 pm in reply to: Can EY rely on U.S. committments of support if there was an Arab attack? #1795217Reb EliezerParticipantJoseph, איזהו חכם הרואה את הנולד. you praise Trump who does not look ahead at the consequences of his actions by only caring for himself and not taking advice from others. Our allies are disgusted with the US that it cannot be trusted as Rechavom who did not listen to the advice of the elders, so his rule was diminished.
Reb EliezerParticipantIf in Chol Hamoed you remove it and put it some where else might be a problem, but if it fell you can put it back where you want to.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe also see by shabbos (Nemukai Yosef in Bava Kama) that we go after the start of the work and saying yaleh veyovai so if we start davening before chatzos we can finish after, even according to the RMA.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Piskei Teshuvas brings from Rav Akiva Eigar ztz’l to daven two shm’es with a tenai, if the first is shacharis the second is mincha, but if the first is mincha, the second is a hashloma for shacharis.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe above ruling of the MB causes sometimes not to have a minyan as people either daven beyechidus or rush out before the minyan arrives thus you don’t have six mispallelim.
