The Republicans don’t help the poor by saying let them sink and swim. The democrats don’t force abortions or go after taiva.
Look at the GRA on Yonah. The jugs refer to Chanukah recognizing the importance of the light of Torah in galus. When we are sent to earth we are mixed with the goyim and must fight them as Yaakov Avinu fought Eisov and his malach.
Sam Klein, the sitra achra makes this coincidences to turn Jews away from yiddishkeit by showing that the goyim have some strength as Hashem does imply anything under the influence of tuma. The Satmar Rav ztz’l says that the eigel came out from the koach of the sitra achra.
Purim demonstrates that Hashem has us in mind even when we are sinning as Vashti was judged for execution in the middle of us taking part of Ahashveroshes meal.
לולב is 68 gematria חיים and אתרוג with the כולל is 611 gematria תורה as two mitzvas were directly heard from Hashem.
We don’t use incorrect secular dates to make gematrios to learn any mussar. Use Jewish dates. אל תפנו אל האלילים ושם אלהים אחרים לא ישמע על פיך
For the Jews there is a difference between the first month of the year is Tishri and the first month is Nissan as lehavedil there is difference between the first month of the fiscal year and the first month of the year.
See Yechaveh Daas (3,56) from Rav Ovadya Yosef ztz’l explaining in great detail the requirement for chalak, glatt shechita when it comes to the lungs, so it does not apply to fowl.
See Yechaveh Daas (3,56) from Rav Ovadya Yosef ztz’l who explains in great detail the requirement for chalak, glatt shechita.
A new year by the Jews starts by the 7th month and not after the 12th month. It is like lehavdil by the goyim a fiscal year starts from July and not January. So, even though the months are counted from Nissan, the years are counted from Tishri, no contradiction.
Sam Klein, whether you like it or not, 9-11 does not reflect Tisha B’av as Av is not the 11th month, period. Saying that you are violating that months are counted from Nissan. Look at Jermiah (52, 12) describing Tisha B’av referring to it as the fifth month the tenth day. Rabbi Yochanan says that if he would have been there, he would have dsignated the tenth day but by us the beginning of punishment is more painful. The Chasam Sofer explains that even though most of the Beis Hamikdash burned on the tenth but when they started on the ninth to apply fire to it, was a kodeshdige bayis but once fire caught on, a chukindige bayis burned.
So, Av is the 5th month and not the 11th month. We start counting months from Nissan and not from Tishri whereas Jewish years are counted from Tishri and not from Nissan.
Sam Klein, the world was created the 25th of Elul and Adam Harishon was created the sixth day of creation, Rosh Hashanah and the Torah calls it the seventh month the first day, Bamidmar 29,1 in Parashas Pinchas we designate the new year from then. The Torah does not call it the first month.
Sam Klein, show me one place in Tenach where the months are counted from Tishri.
Sam Klein what you are saying is a halacha in Shulchan Aruch O’CH 231 to do our mundane things for Hashem’s sake.
goldpen, no one said that Trump is a nazi but by not speaking up he ends up giving them strength and supporting them.
It says to make a mikdash and Hashem will rest among them where it does not say among it. The holy Shlah says that every individual should make himself a mikdash, so it makes sense to have to account what we do with our mikdash.
Sam Klein, generations change, they pass their baton to the next generation as it says in Koheles
דור הולך ודור בא as pointed out eloquently by GH all gedolim above were around a hundred in age. No one should pass on any younger. It says שוב יום אחד לפני מותך repent a day before your last day. I once heard an explanation what would a person do if one knew that this is one’s last day that was returned by getting a reprieve? So one should see every day as such.When tzadikim pass on it is a wake up call as we are not worthy to be in their company and by comparison get hurt by them as we see by Chanoch who was taken away early.
Everyone agrees that the physical creation of Adam Harishon was done Rosh Hashana so we start to account for our sins then but the months are counted from Nissan.
Sam Klein, you are violating the pasuk above to start to count from Nissan and not from Tishri as we find all over the Torah. It is an issur to count months by numbers not from Nissan. If not counting from Nissan, the months should not be referred to through numbers. Your comments above are disrespectful when I don’t make up incorrect things to suit myself. Stop being a preacher when others know about teshuva just as much as you do.
If you see a wake up call according to your calculations, so be it as long as you wake up but don’t force others to recognize it when they have other correct means to achieve the same results.
Something that cannot be a coincidence from Sefer Shevil Rakia for people liking gematrios,
החדש הזה לכם ראש חדשים ראשון הוה לכם לחדשי השנה hints on the time from one molad to the next
כמה תשעה ועשרים יום ומחצה ותשצ’ג חלקים, how much 29 1/2 days and 793 chalakim where a chelek is 1/1080
of an hour, around 3/4 of an hour, 45 min, both adding up to 2658.The ills of money and wealth is described by the Akeidas Yitzchak on lo yihye lecha in the Aseres Hadibros. These are his words as translated by me. It includes the great idol worship which is found in this world, a great find which is a cure for all concerns and deeds to collect wealth and success of investments which is their great god that they rely on their belief. They trust its holy name and deny the G-d above, forsake his Torah, leave it an aguna, and being ashamed in the corner. This is the main theme of a’z.
Sam Klein, I think that 9-11 was more a reminder of believing in our financial superiority, the tower of Babel. It happened at the time of selichos to remind us to do teshuva. Some people got saved as they went to work late.
Sam Klein, Av is not the 11th month anywhere in the Torah as we count months from Nissan. This whole pshat is forced. It reminds me of the Midas muffler commercial, ‘we will make it fit’.
Sam Klein, for being in CH’L and anti-semitism, look at the Meshech Chachmah in Parshas Bechukosai on Veaf Gam Zos.
As mentioned above the date by us is not 9-11 but 9, 11 plus 13 = 23 inclusive as described above. The proof is from Vesain Tal Umotor said on Dec 4th and not November 22nd.
If collectors come or from a fund, try to get some acknowledgement letter from a gadol.
nishtdayngesheft, it says עולם כמנהגו נוהג where Hashem gave over the daily functioning to science and nature but certain things can override it. Look at the end of Maseches Shabbos on the argument if we go by the horoscope, mazel by the Jews. The one whose view is we don’t follow the mazel is because tefila, mitzvos and maasim tovim can override it. So assuming is not an apikorsus. The Magen Avraham says not to make kiddush from 6:00 to 7:00 as when Saturn (shabsai) rules over.
The Ramban explains that living in Ch’L is like worshipping a’z. There are 70 nations where each is ruled by a malach who is known as elohim. Hashem, who picked EY is known as Elokei Haelohim. Therefore, there is a tendency to worship a’z in Ch’L thinking that they are in control but they can be overridden as above.When fighting cancer l’a there are two ways to fight it, chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Destroying it or to build up the body’s immuno-system to be able to fight it. The second strengthens the body and the first weakens the body, so the second is better.
Sam Klein, if you want something worthwhile, look at the Yabia Omer (8,37) at the end from Rav Ovadya Yosef ztz’l, where he explains how in the mishna Sheviis (9,1) הפיגם, hapigam looking at its reverse we find מגיפה, plague, as interpreted by the Tiferes Yisrael is a red cabbage, might be a segula for COVID-19.
Sam Klein, 9-11 was a wakeup call at the time of selichos but don’t make up things that are not true. It has nothing to do with Tisha B’av, if for the fact that it happened being in galus,
Ukraine is a wake up call for the Jews. Say Tehilim 83.
Koheles is not Proverbs (Mishlei) but Ecclesiastes and I like 9-12 better which explains it clearer and where does it say it refers to Tisha B’av and 9-11 was not Tisha B’av but Selichos. It is an issur to make any references from goyishe months and it was not 9-11 but 13 days after it as Pope Gregory removed 13 says discussed below, so we start Vesain Tal Umotor, Dec 4th or 5th rather than 60 days after the tekufa.
The reason we must adjust the Tekufas Tishri by 13 days because Pope Gregory in 1582 created a Gregorian calendar over Julian Caesar’s calendar because he adjusted the calendar by 10 days. The other days difference had to do wiith a leap year for a complete century. This should be a leap year since years divisible by 4 should be a leap year. The complete century is a hundred years. He changed it that only if is divisible by 400 will be a leap year. The years 1600 and 2000 were ok; The years 1700, 1800 and 1900 were not leap years any more. This makes the differende of another 3 days for a total of 13 days.
1948 should be 5708 always 3760 more.
When you compare a goyish date with a jewish date, you compare apples and oranges.
I was born in 1948 (5748) but we don’t compare goyish dates with Jewish dates.
I gave to the above fund, see https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/promotions/2065325/rabbi-bleich-dramatic-changes-in-the-last-24-hours.html
The women were rewarded with Rosh Chodesh because they valued their jewelry less than the value of the mishkan and were willing to sacrifice it but when it came to the eigel, the golden calf they refused.
They realized that Hashem is mashgiach, has supervision over them as reflected by Rosh Chodesh, the monthly renewal and that cannot be replaced with the symbolism of the eigel. They found a greater catch.I heard from my rebbi, the Matersdorfer Rav, Rav Shmuel ztz’l zy’a, that an am haaretz is not allowed to eat meat because he sends his son to college thereby figuring that he will be from the miut, small amount who comes out religious from it as entered, according to Rebbi Meir who relies on the miut where the question was how meat can be eaten?
coffee addict, I don’t know what is the point for the jail joke. Either I don’t know how to tell the joke or it is well known and does not need to be told.
A bachar arrived to Novardok and hears the others say ich bin gornisht, I am nobody. so he follows them. He is being retorted, what gives you the right to say you are nothing.
GOP has no platform, so now it is synonymous with Trump.
Don’t be like Haran who got burned when going into fire because Avraham Avinu escaped. When going to college know that even though others came out untouched, you can get burned.
Maybe if tzadaka is given properly from it, we realize that we are just a distributer of the money given to us. The Binah Leitim in Parashas Naso interprets the passage ‘אשר יתן לכהן לו יהי what he gives to the kohen is what truly belongs to him.
