Reb EliezerParticipant
It is the responsibility of the father to teach his son a profession, but the Rambam was a doctor who could set his own hours.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhy does the Mishna say that we need a profession and not sit and learn?
Reb EliezerParticipantIf the children will have to rely on welfare, the parents don’t have a right.
Remember the famous Rambam מי שמשים על עצמו לעסוק בדברי תורה ומתפרנס מן הצדקה הרי גוזל את הבריות.Reb EliezerParticipantThe problem is that they are not all suited to sit and learn and they can’t find a well paying job because of their lack of education.
Reb EliezerParticipantA friend, whose name is Sheye said that it is good that his father did not call him also Getzel because than he would have been called Sheygetzel.
August 16, 2018 12:16 pm at 12:16 pm in reply to: Dems and Libs, Please explain your Ideology #1575146Reb EliezerParticipantProviding higher education, housing, skill training for jobs available, and health care for those who cannot afford it. Making sure that people can support themselves and make a living.
August 16, 2018 11:46 am at 11:46 am in reply to: Dems and Libs, Please explain your Ideology #1575122Reb EliezerParticipantCaring for workers underpaid, and caring for the poor not skilled in the jobs available, as in time of the gemora where people where supported from the tamche. Fighting against discrimination which protects the Jews from the same.
August 16, 2018 10:33 am at 10:33 am in reply to: Rav Chaim: A Nebach Apikorus is also an Apikorus #1575011Reb EliezerParticipantThe R’ Abarbanel on Moshiach says about Hilel not that he arrived already, but the forty years in between his coming and techiyas hamesim has been used up so one will come after another.
Reb EliezerParticipantEclipse is considered the sun or the moon is hit, so there is no brocho.
Reb EliezerParticipantKavono by tefilah is discussed in S”A O”CH 98:2.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat is this about yibbum, when currently there is no yibbum but chalitza?
Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a difference between מומר לתאבון an otd from desire and מומר להכעיס and an otd to anger. An otd to anger passes his non-beliefs to his children whereas an otd from desire will not. An otd from desire will repent when the age of desire is gone, whereas the otd to anger will never repent. I would say that otd to anger will be a מסית ומדיח, someone who makes others sin, and can be called Ym”s.
August 15, 2018 12:17 am at 12:17 am in reply to: Commemorating the 60th Yohr Tzeit of Rav Yonasan Steiff Zt”l #1574265Reb EliezerParticipantMentioned in the above biography is a story about a young man who was called to serve in the army. He went to Rav Yonasan zt”l who give him an incantation to say before he saw the doctor. When he said , the goats in the slaughter house are fatter than me (Tractate Megilla), he became a lepper, so the doctor through him out in order not to get infected. When he left and went out to the steet, it disappeared.
Reb EliezerParticipantI think the prayer we say don’t bring me to temptation and don’t bring me to shame. We can interpret this that if you bring me to temptation, you will bring me to shame.
Reb EliezerParticipantRevealing a secret is lashan hara. A kohen was killed when he revealed to his friend that the floor was not level in the Beis Hamikdash and the holy ark was hidden there.
Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a pasuk in Mishlei 11: 13 הולך רכיל מגלה סוד one goes and gossips by revealing secrets.
August 14, 2018 1:08 pm at 1:08 pm in reply to: Commemorating the 60th Yohr Tzeit of Rav Yonasan Steiff Zt”l #1573355Reb EliezerParticipantIt will be Monday Tes, Elul – August 20.
August 14, 2018 12:44 pm at 12:44 pm in reply to: Commemorating the 60th Yohr Tzeit of Rav Yonasan Steiff Zt”l #1573310Reb EliezerParticipantHis name is only spelled with one ‘f’.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Torah gives us in Parshas R’eh a means of how to diet. When a person wants to eat, he should eat at the time when he can control himself. Eat when you are hungry as long you are hungry. It says
Devorim 12:20 ואמרת אכלה בשר explains the Chasam Sofer you should be able to say that you want to eat meat כי תתאוה נפשך לאכל בשר because when you desire to eat meat, בכל אוות נפשך תאכל בשר with all your desire you will eat meat, you will not be able to control yourself.Reb EliezerParticipantHe is enciting people with his conspiracy theories. It is similar like yelling fire in a crowded theater causing riots which harms individuals.
Reb EliezerParticipantMikraos Gedolos Chumash
Reb EliezerParticipantKitzur Shulchan Aruch in English
Reb EliezerParticipantSefer Hachinuch
Reb EliezerParticipantGaon, you did not answer my question in 1571760 as it says mitzva and not chiyuv.
Reb EliezerParticipantNo, in either way, people who care will ask, where is your hat or they don’t know and their won’t be an embarassment. As according to the Baer
Hetev above you are not mechuyav to spend any money on a minyan but not gaining money might be different.Reb EliezerParticipantTakes2 – Look at the Baer Hetev O:CH 90:13 many of your questions will be answered.
Reb EliezerParticipantGaon, does permission of Erev Techumin required to be a Chiyuv or just a Mitzva?
Reb EliezerParticipantThe MB in O”CH 415:4 mentions the creating an Eruv Texhuman for a minyan is a mitzva.
Reb EliezerParticipantI think the argument between Yaakov Avinu and the brothers is, if to satisfy the judgement requirement for kidnapping do you have to kill the whole city of Shechem or satisfy the requirement by some other means like making them slaves.
Reb EliezerParticipantIt does not say in the above mentioned source that it is a chiyuv, It says that effort should be exerted. More important to daven in a shul and the time people are davening.
Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a Baal Haturim on ויקץ יעקב משנתו ויאמר Yaakov Avinu woke up from his sleep and said, has the last letters צבור indicating that ones prayer is only listened to in unity. We need each others zachusim that our prayers be listened to. It says before אכן יש ה’ במקום הזה ואנכי לא ידעתי could be related to the above, Hashem exists in this place provided I put aside my egotism.
August 9, 2018 3:28 pm at 3:28 pm in reply to: Is the goverment responsible to implicate the 7 mitzvos #1571579Reb EliezerParticipantGaon, Where do you find lehalacha that for a mitzva, you are allowed to endanger yourself when sofek pikuach nefesh is docheh shabbos even if it is hudcheh having against the mitzva the mitzva of ushmartem es nafshasechen?
Reb EliezerParticipantShulchan Aruch O”CH 90:9
August 9, 2018 12:48 pm at 12:48 pm in reply to: Is the goverment responsible to implicate the 7 mitzvos #1571513Reb EliezerParticipantWhere is that Meiri? I don’t think that the above Chezkuni upholds that.
August 9, 2018 12:21 pm at 12:21 pm in reply to: Is the goverment responsible to implicate the 7 mitzvos #1571505Reb EliezerParticipantGaon, Yaakov Avinu held like the Samuel Hanovi that this is a שכיח הזיקא where being harmed is prevalent so the mitzva will not protect you.
Reb EliezerParticipant1 – I explained already that assuming that you have a good reason going to this place on vacation, so you are not doing anything wrong since you davened already with a minyan before you left. It is recommended that, if there is a shul, daven there and the time when people daven.
Reb EliezerParticipantIt’s a מצוה הבאה בעבירה, mitzva through an averoh for him.
Reb EliezerParticipantJoseph, did you see the rephrasing of the question. There is nothing wrong
in going to a vacation. You daven with a minyan before you leave.August 8, 2018 9:09 pm at 9:09 pm in reply to: Is the goverment responsible to implicate the 7 mitzvos #1571160Reb EliezerParticipantGaon, I think the question that Yaakov Avinu had , do I have to put myself
in a precarious situation in order to enforce the law that might get me killed and then have to rely on a miracle to get saved?Reb EliezerParticipantI will rephrase your question. Are you allowed to do something currently (where you don’t do anything wrong) which will cause that later on you have to rely on a bedaved davening without a minyan?
Reb EliezerParticipantYou can’t compare it to the case where the hot water spilled on shabbos because there is mitzva to do milah which causes the pikuach nefesh to heat water after. Here there is no mitzva to go on vacation.
Reb EliezerParticipantHis writings in דברי יואל are still alive.
August 8, 2018 5:10 pm at 5:10 pm in reply to: Is the goverment responsible to implicate the 7 mitzvos #1571037Reb EliezerParticipantGaon, look at the Chezkuni 34:25 ד”ה ויהרגו כל זכר it looks like they have a chiyuv to create a court to enforce the laws of kidnapping and if they don’t that it becomes our responsibility.
August 8, 2018 3:38 pm at 3:38 pm in reply to: If a pig was genetically modified to chew its cud, would it be kosher? #1571015Reb EliezerParticipantI remember that a kosher animal that chews its cud has multiple stomachs so I don’t think this is scientifically possible.
August 8, 2018 2:04 pm at 2:04 pm in reply to: If a pig was genetically modified to chew its cud, would it be kosher? #1570919Reb EliezerParticipantAccording to the above Ohr Hachaim why do we need to create a new entity let us do a genetic modification to make it kosher?
August 8, 2018 2:04 pm at 2:04 pm in reply to: If a pig was genetically modified to chew its cud, would it be kosher? #1570916Reb EliezerParticipantThe Ohr Hachaim says in Parshas Shemini that there will be a new pig created by the redemption that will chew its cud which will be kosher. Aisov who is compared to the pig being fake showing its cut hoofs will repent and therefore it will become kosher.
August 8, 2018 2:04 pm at 2:04 pm in reply to: Is the goverment responsible to implicate the 7 mitzvos #1570901Reb EliezerParticipantThe Ramban says that the people of Shchem were responsible for not enforcing Sheva Mitzvos Bnei Noach and therefore deserved death.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe yahr zeit to remember him by is כואב, pain – the 26th of Av.
Reb EliezerParticipantSomething to remeber him by. It says in Parshas Eikev מראשית השנה עד אחרית שנה from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Why is there a specific article ה ידוע in the beginning of the year. I heard the explanation in his name that every beginning of the year a person thinks this is the year (for the redemption), but at the end realizes that it is like any other year. This is the meaning of הן גאלתי אתכם אחרית כראשית it will be said that the redemption at the end will be like the beginning.
August 7, 2018 11:17 am at 11:17 am in reply to: Different Circles Of Yidden Can Experience Great Unity – Achdus #1570244Reb EliezerParticipantWe can create unity among the different groups according the writing of Rav Eliyohu Dessler in Mchtav Eliyohu saying that every group serves Hashem with their nature, some are cold and some are warm. There are different ways of serving Him. The importance is to serve Him and not how we serve Him.
