ZionGate, 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.
There 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.
We 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.
The Gemora in the tractate Avodah Zarah holds the Goyim responsible for not keeping the mitzva of Sukah at the arrival of Moshiach.
DaasYochid I can truly say you are a Yochid Mumcheh.
אל תווכח לץ פן ישנאך הוכיח חכם ויאהבך says the Slah Hakodash when you admonish someone do not tell him that he is a letz because he will end up hating you but if you tell him he is smart he will love you.
The Harav Abarbenel explains, when you admonish someone be careful of לא תשא עליו חטא don’t put the sin on him., but say people do this but not that “he” does it.
Moderator: The order of my posts matter. You put reply 1469551 before 1469549.
A talmid of Reb Moshe, Rabbi Tzvi Halevi Pollak, also known as the Grosswardeiner Rov.
You are not a Daas Yochid anymore.
I agree fully with DaasYochid that circumstances matter.
Anyway I was told by a Posek here in Staten Island that Reb Moshe revised his psak in later years. Please research.
Does Reb Moshe talk about air conditioners? Riding in a car is biblical according Chasam Sofer for violation of resting.
The Ben Ish Chay says that shabbos is called shabbos shalom because it unites body and soul.
It it affects our spiritual well building I consider Oneg Shabbos, turning on TV is not spiritual כל שרוח הבריות נוחה ממנו it says ruach the spiritual the soul. Extreme heat can affect our learning.
Reward and punishment is just measuring stick of how much nachas ruach we create.
Putting on a stove by a goy on shabbos might be another problem of bishul akum.
It doesn’t matter what type of a chosid you are or if you are a chosid at all as long that you want to create nachas ruach to Hashem with your service. They are all different ways to arrive to the same thing. The importance is not the means but the end,
The isur of amira lleakum came out in order not to weaken by being all the work of shabbos through a goy thereby eliminating shabbos altogether. Such that if he has no goy he might do it himself. Rambam hilchos shabos (6,1, ) so we can say that this can apply on a shabbos clock also. But if there is a mitzva, he will realize that their is a limitation on the permission. As I mentioned before that oneg shabbos might be considered a mitzva.
Anyway DaasYochid what are you saying? Didn’t I say that I think that amira leakum does not apply by an A/C?
It’s an argument among the Rishonim if Amirah Leakim is oral or biblical. How can we include something that happens automatically on shabbos to something that is done through an action?
If you want to understand Amiroh Leakim see the sefer Minchas Kohen Mishmeres Shabbos Shaar 1, Chap. 1-10
I think that Amirah Leakim does not apply by an A/C as discussed above the same applies to a Shabbos clock since we can’t make our own gezeros after the completion of the Shas.
Reb Moshe did not want his Teshuvas translated because the circumstances can change and we don’t know the circumstances of his teshuva.
Things and circumstances can change. It says in Devorim(17,9) Go to the priest who is around at that time. Samuel in his generation like Yiftoch in his generation even if he has less knowledge excluding Gezeros. Ruling that we must follow our gedolim in our time if the circumstances changed. See
Panim Yafos there. See Tosfas Betzeh (6,1) d’h Vehoidnah currently.See Rema Shulchan Aruch Chaim (376,2) They allowed Amiroh Leakim for a Mitzva.
There is such thing as Oneg Shabbos. Being in the dark or sweating in the heat is not Oneg Shabbos so I think you can use it even it makes some noise.
I think that air conditioner would be ok. We don’t want to take away from the aura of Shabbos by listening to Radio/TV. to make an Uvdah Dchol but it does not mean that a person has to suffer and be uncomfortable on Shabbos. Are you allowed to get a Goy to put on the Radio/TV?
See what I said under the topic talking in shul. Not talking protects the unity.
Three individuals, a doctor, an architect and a computer programmer analyst argue what was the first profession. The doctor says it had to be surgery as it says that G-d created Eve from Adam’s ribs. The architect says, No it says earlier that G-d created heaven and earth from chaos. The programmer analyst says, and who created the chaos.
Why didn’t Yosef dream that Dinah will also bow down in front of him?
Even in a dream he would not dream that his mother in law will bow down in front of him.
Why do the Goyim celebrate Kratzmich the night before and we celebrate Purim the night after?
They celebrate after a Jew and we celebrate after a Goy.
Why did the shevotim circumcise the people of Shechem?
When they are Jews no one cares.
We might want to take along a sefer to learn not to waste the time.
See Bamidbor (13,22) Parshes Shelach Rashi ויבא עד חברון Kolev went to the grave of the Avos to pray that they should help him not to follow the Meraglim’s advice.
The tent doors in the desert did not face each other, maybe, in order that one should not see and desire the others possessions.
