Reb EliezerParticipant
That the Lubavitcher Rebbe will be Moshiach is only according to Hillel whose view is that techiyas hamesim will coincide with the comming of the Moshiach, otherwise there will be forty years in between.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe MB 91:12 mentioned above says כובע בראשו כדרך שהולך ברחוב. He should put a hat on by davenen the way he walks on the street. We see they wore hats on the street.
Reb EliezerParticipantDavid Hamelech says אבן מאסו הבונים היתה לראש פנה the rock that the builders despised was placed at the head corner.
July 23, 2018 4:58 pm at 4:58 pm in reply to: Terribly Missing the Gedolei Europe who built Torah Yiddishkeit in America #1563340Reb EliezerParticipantEvery generation have their own gedolim הכהן אשר יהי’ בימים ההם, יפתח בדורו כשמואל בדורו.
Reb EliezerParticipantThere are two ways to judge an individual with mercy or judgment. He could be judged what he is responsible as a human being or what he is responsible towards Hashem. When a person has gayva, he will be judged on a higher level through judgement, what he is responsible to Hashem.
Reb EliezerParticipantAre you talking of Hilel’s view that means that there will not be 40 years between the comming of Moshiach and techiyas hamesim, see the Abarbanel on Moshiach. It could be someone alive will be Moshiach as the gemora questions it, but there is no view that the Moshiach will return a second time.
Reb EliezerParticipantThis has caused that people don’t daven with a hat and a jacket because they daven like they go on the street, see MB O”CH 91:12.
Reb EliezerParticipantFor sinas chinom, look up the Rashbam, Ramban on לא תשנא את אחיך בלבבך do not keep your hatred bottled up in your heart but admonish him about it. See also the Yad Yosef on the Ein Yaakov Yoma 9. According to this there are two causes 1) not admonishing, telling him why you hate him 2) hating for an inexcusable reason where your reason for hatred is not an acceptable reason so you act like friend and keep the hatred fester in your heart.
Reb EliezerParticipantIt says היום אם בקולו תשמעו, it can be today, if we listen to him.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe answer might lie in our current parsha Voeschanan Devorim 4:29 ובקשתם את ה’ אלקיך ומצאת כי תדרשנו בכל לבבך ובכל נפשך you will seek Hashem your G-d and find him because you will look for him with your whole heart and soul. This we should remember in galus and Moshiach will come.
July 22, 2018 3:58 pm at 3:58 pm in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #1562679Reb EliezerParticipantIt says כל המתאבל על ירושלים זוכה ורואה בשמחתה whoever mourns Jerusalem will see its rejoycing. Explains the Chasam Sofer that he shows that the loss is not dead which is forgotten but it is still alive. He can actually see the redemption and thereby be happy in its consolation.
Reb EliezerParticipantLook at the Klei Yokor in Parshas Devorim on פנו לכם צפונה, be hidden in galus. Do not forget that we are in galus by showing off through building fancy houses. If we forget, Hashem keeps out there.
Reb EliezerParticipantMeat is not eaten still Sunday night but can be eaten Monday so the mourning period ends the first thing Monday morning.
Reb EliezerParticipantPublicly we don’t differentiate in order not to take it lightly.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat about maris ayin?
Reb EliezerParticipantEmphasize the importance of Tefila at least once a day. Point out whom and what to daven for, so tefila will not be a burden.
Reb EliezerParticipantMy Rebbe thought me that צלם אלקים indicates not to go to a goyishe barber.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chasam Sofer says there אין לי עסק בנסתרות. Some were a jacket buttoning on the right in order to place the right on the left.
Reb EliezerParticipantSee Chasam Soder O”CH 159 says there is nothing wrong in shaving.
The proof might be from the mishneh ואלו מגלחין במועד.Reb EliezerParticipantSQRT2 – According to the Tiferes Yisroel, Moshe Rabbeinu was destined to be great. So he had a great yetzer hora and thereby having a hechere neshama and which increased his drive/ability to fight it.
Reb EliezerParticipantOn Pinchos Rashi says בדין הוא שיטל שכרו he deserves his just rewards. Why?
The Dubner Magid has a parable where A wholesaler hires a young man on a no salary basis just room and board. A retail person comes wanting to be served. The wholesaler sends him away telling him that we are in the middle of our Purim seuda and to come tomorrow. The young man volunteers to serve him. They make a lot of money due this transaction. The wholesaler asks the young man what he ows him. Didn’t we agree that I don’t get any salary compensation? The wholesaler tells him that since he sacrifies his food, room and board for his business, he showed that the business is more important than the compensation of room and board he is getting he wants to give him some compensation he will appreciate. Similarly, we can’t give enough thanks to Hashem for his benevolence for living healthily without any concerns but Pinchos sacrificed his life in His service, so he deserves a reward that is worthy to him.July 5, 2018 2:23 pm at 2:23 pm in reply to: Why does the Yeshiva World constantly post anti Trump articles #1552962Reb EliezerParticipantExtremes are no good.
Reb EliezerParticipantIsn’t that the same as Bobov?
Reb EliezerParticipantThere are other sects within sanz headed by the Divrei Chaim, Klausenburg , Shinev and Bobov.
Reb EliezerParticipantDavening only applies if they are a תנוק שנשבה, captured in their youth coming from a reformed family. My mother came from such a family and my father changed her becoming G-d fearing and G-d trusting.
Reb EliezerParticipantMaybe we have a responsibility to daven for them to see the light אתה חונן לאדם דעת.
Reb EliezerParticipantSRQT2 – Look at the Tiferes Yisroel at the end of Maseches Kidushin about the story of the painter. I don’t know what Reb Moshe means. The only thing I can tell you כל הגדול מחבירו יצרו גדול ממנו. It says by Yosef ויהי כדברה אליו יום יום ולא שמע אליה the more Aishes Potifar talked to convince him, the more he did not listen to her. The Chasan Sofer explains that the yetzer hora operates similarly. Since he has nothing good to sell so he has to talk a lot to convince someone to follow him, whereas the yetzer tov has good merchandise so he does not talk a lot.
July 3, 2018 9:34 pm at 9:34 pm in reply to: Davening via the Mamme Rochel vs via a Tzaddik #1551884Reb EliezerParticipantLook at Rashi Bereshis 48:7 on ואני בבאי מפדן where Rachel will get up from her grave to pray for us
July 3, 2018 7:05 pm at 7:05 pm in reply to: Davening via the Mamme Rochel vs via a Tzaddik #1551867Reb EliezerParticipantWhat I said is incorrect. Look at gemora Sotah 34b rather than pray, he asked the avos to intevene in his behalf.
July 3, 2018 6:30 pm at 6:30 pm in reply to: Davening via the Mamme Rochel vs via a Tzaddik #1551859Reb EliezerParticipantPray to the Hashem to have the avos intervene in his behalf giving Kalev resistance not to be influenced using their zechusim.
Reb EliezerParticipantMy daughter studied in Israel for a year. Girls over here were a uniform except Rosh Chodesh, Shabbos and Yom Tov.
July 3, 2018 11:58 am at 11:58 am in reply to: Davening via the Mamme Rochel vs via a Tzaddik #1550927Reb EliezerParticipantLook at Rashi Bamidbar 13:22 on ויבא עד חברון Kalev went to pray at the Meoras Hamachpelah to the avos not to be influenced by the Meraglim.
Reb EliezerParticipantDo you have a hechere neshomo like the square root of 2 having an infinte number of digits? See Tosfas Sukkah 8a ‘כל אמתא וכו
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat you are saying is correct.
Reb EliezerParticipantJust an addendum. There are four worlds where each one is more holy. The neshamas each come from higher worlds.
The Sefer Habris is a very interesting sefer written by Rabbi Pinchas Eliyohu from Vilna first published in 1797. It has no table of contents because he wants us to read it in order. The ideas build on each other.
It consists of two parts, Ksav Yosher and Divrei Emes. The first part discusses material sciences on fire, water, wind or air and earth. The second part is metaphysical, spiritual. The neshama discussion is in part 2 statement 1 נפשות ישראל, chapter 3.July 2, 2018 11:46 am at 11:46 am in reply to: Why does the Yeshiva World constantly post anti Trump articles #1550258Reb EliezerParticipantThank for both of you crazykanoiy and Midwest2 for expressing my feelings which I am unable to do as eloquently.
July 1, 2018 7:41 pm at 7:41 pm in reply to: Why does the Yeshiva World constantly post anti Trump articles #1550001Reb EliezerParticipantWhat is so good about his domestic issues?
Reb EliezerParticipantDoes this go into the argument if efsher letzamtzem?
Reb EliezerParticipantAgainst
Reb EliezerParticipantLook at the Sefer Habris who explains in great detail that in order to fight the Yetzer Horah we must have a hechere neshama. He is as great as the neshama can take. When he exhausts it as a tzadik a hechere neshomo is given to him otherwise he can not excel. There are twenty five levels of neshama נפש רוח נשמה חיה יחידה so you can have נפש שבנפש and רוח שבנפש etc. then נפש שברוח etc then נפש שבנשמה etc. similar to sefiras haamer.
July 1, 2018 5:36 pm at 5:36 pm in reply to: Why does the Yeshiva World constantly post anti Trump articles #1549951Reb EliezerParticipantThe tax cuts very good. For whom? 21T National Debt and increasing.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe online calendar is myzmanim.
July 1, 2018 11:37 am at 11:37 am in reply to: Why does the Yeshiva World constantly post anti Trump articles #1549816Reb EliezerParticipantWe have a Hungarian saying “Don’t throw out the dirty water until you have clean” we should not have broken the Iran deal until we have something better.
July 1, 2018 11:37 am at 11:37 am in reply to: Why does the Yeshiva World constantly post anti Trump articles #1549799Reb EliezerParticipantBy getting out of human rights council we lost our say to change anything.
Reb EliezerParticipantקצה תראה וכולו לא תראה Bolok said to Bilom to go to a place where he can see some of the Jews but not all of them. The Rabbenu Bachaye explains in Parshas Ki Siso that if you count the Bnei Yisroel directly c’v a plague comes because you separate the group good from the bad but otherwise you only see the whole group which is all good. You can’t affect the group as a whole with your curse because they are all good. Only part can be affected because they can be bad.
Reb EliezerParticipantLook at the Klei Yokor for Parshas Bokok explaining the four expressions ישראל, עם, בני ישראל, קהל. ישראל refers to Yakov Avinu defeating Emori with his sword and arrow, עם refers to the erav rav, and קהל refers to Josef compared to an ox.
June 29, 2018 8:28 pm at 8:28 pm in reply to: Why does the Yeshiva World constantly post anti Trump articles #1549498Reb EliezerParticipantWhen you go and tear apart families, children from parents against the Agudas stand, there is no hakoras hatov for that.
Reb EliezerParticipantTo find any molad we must find the first molad.
To find the first molad Rambam Hilchos Kidush Hachodesh (6,8) Take the day Adam Horishan was created and subtract a year.
He was created on Friday at 8 AM = 6 day 2 hr = 6 day 14 hr counted from Thursday 6 PM when the 6th day begins.
When taking a 12 month year molad difference when divided by 7 which is for one month 1 day 12 hrs 793 chalkim multiplied by 12 we get
4 days, 8 hrs 876 chalokim.
Going back a year from his creation by subtracting this from 6 day 14 hrs we get 2 days 5 hrs and 204 chalokim with the mnemonic בהר’ד is the first molad.Reb EliezerParticipantAs a side information there is a gematria implying the 29 1/2 days and 793 chalokim from one molad to the next. The verse החדש הזה לכם ראש חדשים ראשון הוא לכם לחדשי השנה adds up exactly כמה תשעה ועשרים ומחצה יום ותשצג חלקים totaling 2658.
June 29, 2018 9:54 am at 9:54 am in reply to: Can following a Chumra become a Chilul Hashem #1549328Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chug Chatam Sofer has similar views with the Eida Charedus and if they don’t consider them the Jewish, I am surprised how the Chug Chatam Sofer would.
