Reb EliezerParticipant
Levi – לוי
Reb EliezerParticipantIt says תחת השמים לא תשכח by the annihilation of Amolek. If you take the letters under השמים for example under ה is ו and so on you get a gematria of 526 which adds up to the word שכור indicating even when you drunk don’t forget Amolek.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe word for marriage in hebrew is Nisuim to elevate that is to put each other on a pedestal and only see good in each other.
Reb EliezerParticipantHadassah another name for Esther.
February 18, 2018 3:59 pm at 3:59 pm in reply to: Kallah Taking Chosson’s Last Name Upon Marriage- Jewish or Gentile? #1471445Reb EliezerParticipantA man will not have anything to do with a woman having another man’s surname as long we apply the prefix Mrs.
February 18, 2018 3:07 pm at 3:07 pm in reply to: Kallah Taking Chosson’s Last Name Upon Marriage- Jewish or Gentile? #1471398Reb EliezerParticipantI see the opposite in the Zohar she is either tied to the father before marriage or to the husband after marriage through her surname.
Reb EliezerParticipantIf your minhag is to put on Tefilin on Chal Hamoad put it on privately at home but not in public, if it is not the minhag hamakom.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Baal Haturim explains that Mosheh Rabbenu’ s name is not mentioned in Parshas Tetzaveh because he asked to be erased from your book you wrote. It looks like this is a punishment. It could be that this is a commemoration of his greatness. His two outstanding character traits are his compassion and humility. This could commemorate both as this statement above was said for the forgiveness of the Bnei Yisroel of the sin of the golden calf. It also indicates his humility feeling that he is not worthy to be mentioned. The GRA says that this commemorates his yahr zeit which is every year at Parshas Tetzaveh.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Ohr Hachaim in the beginning of Parshas Tetzaveh says that next redemption will come because of the zechus of Mosheh Rabbenu. Learning Torah lishmah will bring Moshiach. Could be that is why his name is not mentioned. The Gemora says that Haman did not know that Mosheh Rabbenu died on 7th of Ador and he was born on the 7th of Ador. That he died on 7th of Ador he knew? The simple explanation is died then because he was born then, but the Yaaros Dvash says that right away when he died he was reborn. We get the strength to be mechadesh from Mosheh Rabbenu. It could be his name is not mentioned because this strength is hidden.
February 18, 2018 11:40 am at 11:40 am in reply to: Practical building the mikdash (parsha thought) #1471285Reb EliezerParticipantLook at the brim question that I mentioned where even on what kind of hat to wear we cannot agree.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe isur is not the goy doing a melochoh on shabbos because he can do it for his own benefit, but doing a melochoh for the benefit of a Jew.
Reb EliezerParticipantThere are others who are matir. I think the difference is that a goy has a mind doing it, even if told erev shabbos, on shabbos for the benefit of a Jew, whereas a shabbos clock has no mind.
Reb EliezerParticipantI told you that you are a Yochid Mumcheh. I did not read the whole Teshuva so I jumped to conclusions.
Reb EliezerParticipantIt says כשם משנכנס אב ממעטין בשמחה כך משנכנס אדר מרבין בשמחה the same way as when Av comes we diminish joy the same Ador comes we add joy. How are the same. Rabbi Yosef Baumgarten explained that fasting we certainly fast for the heaven’s sake but not eating. We should behave similarly when it comes to eating. Even though we don’t currently have the Beis Hamikdash, Purim gives reason to hope that even though they sinned at the party of Achasveros, they were still helped by the killing of Vashti. Even though we are not worthy of our redemption, Hashem will help us to bring the redemption in our time speedily.
Reb EliezerParticipantI get the impression that by cooking where no action is involved it is permitted to use a shabbos clock but not by anything else besides putting on a light.
Reb EliezerParticipantReb Moshe compares cooking to the Nemukei Yosef different than anything else, why?
Reb EliezerParticipantSorry, Why does he mention the Nemukei Yosef where the action is considered finished erev shabbos?
Reb EliezerParticipantIt is not the same the melocho is finished erev shabbos but amira leakim the action is being done on shabbos by a goy. It is true that the opposite true when putting it off which might be a melocho sh’eina tzerica legufah.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Reb Moshe mentions the Nimukei Yosef in Bovo Kama that the whole action is already finished erev shabbos. It is true that Tosfas in Shabbos answers on hasroas safek that it is not considered because it will cook automatically if you don’t remove the bread from the oven.
Reb EliezerParticipantI think the opposite that since no action is required once you put the pot on erev shabbos, you can use a timer by cooking.
Reb EliezerParticipantDaasYochid, please explain isn’t A/C similar to cooking that once it is turned on, no action is necessary?
Reb EliezerParticipantJoseph, thank you for clearing up how the order is created for posts.
February 18, 2018 7:59 am at 7:59 am in reply to: Practical building the mikdash (parsha thought) #1471082Reb EliezerParticipantIt says, create for me a temple so I should be able to rest within you. The Meforshim say that through the Mikdash, Hashem rests within the heart of each of us.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe RMA’s 695:4, psak is that if someone sends mishloach manos, even if the other is not willing to accept it, he is still performing the mitzva. Says the Chasam Sofer in the name of the Monas Halevi, the mitzva is to show love and brotherliness to each other, but not like tzadakah where the mitzva is to make sure that the other person should have. According to the Shulchan Aruch this mitzva is part of Sudas Purim such that he should share his meal with others not to be only for his stomach. Others say that this it part of Matonas Leaniyim not to shame them. if everyone gets, the poor don’t feel ashamed.
Reb EliezerParticipantSo the man should see an opposite view, feeling and thinking, when he wants to sway from Hashem.
Reb EliezerParticipantWho is the father and mother?
February 16, 2018 3:25 pm at 3:25 pm in reply to: Leitzanus: When is it good and when is it bad? #1470791Reb EliezerParticipantThe Little I Know, see what I said on the topic of hachocho in the name of the Shlah Hakodash about a letz.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe question is if we need a brim or hat at all? There is a joke where someone goes to an eye doctor who asks him can you see the plaque on the wall? The man asks, what wall? We must know there is a wall before we can see the plaque similarly before we talk about a brim we must know if we need a hat.
Reb EliezerParticipantMishneh Berurah (91,10) in the name of the Bach covering with the hand is no good because it is part of the body but the sleeve is ok.
Reb EliezerParticipantNC, I am not talking about wearing a yarmulke but a talis over the head. The Mishneh Berurah (91,10) says that using your sleeve over the head is fine. The Mishneh Berurah continues (91,12) says to wear a hat not just a yarmulke. Currently people wear a yarmulke under the hat so that would be the custom.
February 16, 2018 1:03 pm at 1:03 pm in reply to: Kallah Taking Chosson’s Last Name Upon Marriage- Jewish or Gentile? #1470626Reb EliezerParticipantThere is nothing wrong with it tying the wife to the husband. It helps against adultery.
Reb EliezerParticipantIs covering your head halacha or midas chasidus?
Reb EliezerParticipantIt says in Tehilim ממעמקים קראתי ה From the depths I call you Hashem. The Dubner Magid compares this to a king who adopted a young man. The king provided him all necessities. One day the young man disappeared and they couldn’t find him. The king sent his soldiers to look for him. They found him hiding in a pit. The young man said that he feels ashamed after all the good the king has done to him, he stole the king’s favorite robe which he is currently wearing. He can’t show his face because of his shame. This is similar to us and Hashem where we are covering our face because we are ashamed to show it after all the good that Hashem bestowed on us. Could be that’s why we cover our head and face with a talis.
February 16, 2018 11:36 am at 11:36 am in reply to: Leitzanus: When is it good and when is it bad? #1470623Reb EliezerParticipantLetzonis is never good especially when it hurts someone. מלתא דבדוחתא is encouraged to liven the atmosphere,. because mitzvas and learning should be done from joy.
Reb EliezerParticipantאדם לומד מה שלבו חפץ a person learns what his heart desires. When it comes to learning and Avodas Hashem we have to bring someone to recognize the sweetness of the Torah and Avodah. This will encourage him to shteigen to Leilech Michoyil el Choyil to elevate oneself from level to level.
February 16, 2018 11:34 am at 11:34 am in reply to: How to increase Torah learning amongst Klal Yisroel (Kollel, Shiurim…) #1470601Reb EliezerParticipantYWN with its coffee room is very helpful. Create chavrusas using the speaker phone.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Mishneh Berurah (8,4) brings the Bach that covering the head with a talis by davening has 3 benefis:
1) humility – hiding his face, ashamed to show himself
2) Kavonoh – does not get distracted from davening
3) Yiraas Shomaim – brings him closer to HashemReb EliezerParticipantThe Baal Akedah on the ten commandments לא יהי לך says that currently the greatest idol is money. People rush after it forgetting who has bestowed them with it.
February 16, 2018 8:51 am at 8:51 am in reply to: Is there any way to prevent mass shootings???? #1470562Reb EliezerParticipantI don’t think the 2nd amendment applies anymore. It was created at the time when there was no police and people had to protect themselves.
Reb EliezerParticipantDidn’t Yaakov Avinu do the first cloning with the sheep?
Reb EliezerParticipantI agree the psak was about a steam ship where the person is being rocked. I think a car would have a similar ruling. Other poskim are matir for that reason.
Reb EliezerParticipantMaybe it means a connection לשון חיבור through our נשמה look at גיליוני השס in Shabbos 150 above by ZZZ.
February 15, 2018 6:43 pm at 6:43 pm in reply to: Blaming the stick and not the One hitting #1470272Reb EliezerParticipantIt says that averos lehachis, מינות are punished through people which creates less betochen and therefore it is harder to be helped as explained above by Lilmod Ullamed.
Reb EliezerParticipantShefoch Chamoscho happens to be a pasuk in Tehilim (79,6)
February 15, 2018 5:58 pm at 5:58 pm in reply to: Blaming the stick and not the One hitting #1470249Reb EliezerParticipantYou know that in Chad Gadyoh if the the wild cat was incorrect the dog was correct and the stick was incorrect comes out that ch”v Hashem would not correct. They answer the stick was correct because the dog was not suppose to mix in.
February 15, 2018 4:13 pm at 4:13 pm in reply to: Is it permissible to have a goy in a sukkah? #1470148Reb EliezerParticipantMaybe you are right once they escaped from the Sukkah, it became inappropriate for them.
Reb EliezerParticipantZionGate, see RMA in Shulchon Aruch Orech Chaim (380) that some say to say the passage Shefoch Chamoscho in name of the Ran which I did not find. The Rambam does not have it but the Chidoh does.
Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a joke where Moshiach arrives in a shul with a bent down hat with a small brim. He is told over here we wear a large brim hat bent up. He gets another hat with a large brim bent up and he goes to another shul. He is told here we were a small brim bent down. He tells them, you can’t agree on anything. When you will agree I will return.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe say in the seder Shafoch Chamoscho on the nations who don’t know you and the those who don’t call you that is they know you but don’t call you according the Satmar Rav those are the Zionist.
February 15, 2018 12:46 pm at 12:46 pm in reply to: Is it permissible to have a goy in a sukkah? #1470002Reb EliezerParticipantThe Gemora in the tractate Avodah Zarah holds the Goyim responsible for not keeping the mitzva of Sukah at the arrival of Moshiach.
