Reb EliezerParticipant
Töltött káposzta for Hungarians, cholopchis for the Polish, gefilte kraut for Germans or in Yiddish, stuffed cabbage for the Americans and כרוב ממולא for the Israelis.
Reb EliezerParticipantMaybe currently, children do gelilla because they cannot lift the Sefer Torah. I don’t think it is an embarrassment as in the olden times הגולל נוטל שכר כולן, Megilla 32, gelilah was greater than everything. Dressing the Sefer Torah is a great zechus.
February 7, 2022 1:36 pm at 1:36 pm in reply to: RNC Censures Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger #2058211Reb EliezerParticipantRNC calls Jan 6 a ‘legitimate political discourse’ as admitted by Trump to overturn the election, according to the former governor of New Jersey.
February 7, 2022 12:53 pm at 12:53 pm in reply to: President Biden’s Supreme Court nomination #2058216Reb EliezerParticipantThey say people get what they deserve. Trump had no government experience at all, so he was never suited for the position.
February 6, 2022 5:20 pm at 5:20 pm in reply to: RNC Censures Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger #2058002Reb EliezerParticipantI beg to differ. It was not the DNC but the Democratic Party of Arizona.
February 6, 2022 2:48 pm at 2:48 pm in reply to: RNC Censures Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger #2057975Reb EliezerParticipantFebruary 6, 2022 10:24 am at 10:24 am in reply to: RNC Censures Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger #2057915Reb EliezerParticipantTrump is against democracy. When the states approved the electoral college counts, Trump wanted Vice President Pence to stop the certification for his lack of proven cause and hunches. אין ספק מוציא מידי וודאי a doubt does not rule over certainty.
Reb EliezerParticipantLike the ארון, spiritual not be satisfied when looking at someone greater than you, whereas like the שולחן, physical be satisfied as there are people who have less than you.
Reb EliezerParticipantAAQ, are you for real?
Reb EliezerParticipantIt says בשמים ממעל ועל הארץ מתחת, the heaven above and earth below. Isn’t this obvious? Says the Kli Yakar that when it comes to heavenly, spritual things look at people above you, who are greater than you to learn from them, whereas by material, physical things, look at people below you, so you will be satisfied with what you have.
Reb EliezerParticipantParticipant, your joke is a tragic joke of the demonstration of antisemitism.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat the common sense person says above is in Wikipedia. The mother named her so to get ahead in the acting field and she is not Jewish. Whoopie is named after a whoopie cushion.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat about the standing filibuster?
Reb EliezerParticipantubi, your question is an old question. The solution was the Great Compromise where two houses were created in Congress, one with equal representation, the Senate and the other by population, the House.
If the filibuster requires standing and talking as it used to be, there will be less filibuster.Reb EliezerParticipantShe is ignorant. She does not realize that the nazis considered themselves as the Arian race.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe filibuster has made the senate obstructionist, so if you want something done, you have no choice.
Reb EliezerParticipantFilters can be controlled what to block and what not.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Midrash compares the mishkan to a king who married off his daughter. He felt bad that he cannot be close to her. So he built a hut close to her and said wherever you go I always will be near you. Hashem gave us the Torah. he wants to stay close to it, so commanded us to built a mishkan to be able to be close to us having the Torah. The mishkan is from cedar wood standing firm to remember the Torah and not to sway from it. If we don’t keep the Torah, Hashem escapes from our shul as there is no reason to stay close to us.
February 1, 2022 6:29 pm at 6:29 pm in reply to: President Biden’s Supreme Court nomination #2056803Reb EliezerParticipantThe way it should be chosen by looking at all candidates, white or black and men or women, by putting a weight on qualities and if the total weight is equal, we can choose a black women.
Reb EliezerParticipantLostspark, this happened in Nevardak where there greatness was how they saw themselves as nothing compared to Slabodka where they looked at their potential through their great neshama. When a bachur arrived tp Nevardak. he saw the others say that they are nothing. so he followed them and was told, who are you to say you are nothing?
January 31, 2022 6:36 pm at 6:36 pm in reply to: Joe Biden is not the 46th President of the United States of America. #2056469Reb EliezerParticipantIf the President sits in consecutive terms in the Oval Office, he is not counted, however, as long as he sits newly (not in the previous term) even not elected is counted.
Reb EliezerParticipanter, I agree that voting Democratic does not mean you agree with everything.
January 31, 2022 1:59 pm at 1:59 pm in reply to: What Steps Will the Charedi World Take to Try to Prevent Abuse #2056373Reb EliezerParticipantThe above should be YD 334,3 but the Taz argues on the RMA considering the consequences of going out letarbus ra.
Reb EliezerParticipantit is koko-osh written in Hungarian as kakaos.
January 31, 2022 12:54 pm at 12:54 pm in reply to: Joe Biden is not the 46th President of the United States of America. #2056363Reb EliezerParticipantWhen Spiro Agnew resigned, Nixon appointed Gerard Ford as his Vice President. When Richard Nixon resigned, Ford became President and appointed Nelson Rockefeller as his Vice President. When running again, Ford dropped Rockefeller for Bob Dole and lost the election to Jimmy Carter, so Ford was never elected President or Vice President.
January 31, 2022 9:58 am at 9:58 am in reply to: Joe Biden is not the 46th President of the United States of America. #2056324Reb EliezerParticipantWhat about Nelson Rockefeller was never elected Vice President?
January 31, 2022 9:22 am at 9:22 am in reply to: Danger of Talking on Cellphone When Driving!! #2056298Reb EliezerParticipantAs it is written nafshoseichem in plural rather than nafshosecha, it is not only a responsibility protect yourself but also to protect others.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Hungarians have a joke, what is the difference between Lot’s wife and solet (pronounced sholet), the answer is nothing they both became salt. The meaning in Hungarian as chulent is pronounced is solet meaning became salt as ‘so’ means salt and ‘let’ means became.
January 31, 2022 9:20 am at 9:20 am in reply to: What Steps Will the Charedi World Take to Try to Prevent Abuse #2056285Reb EliezerParticipantThe RMA n YD 333 says that we put one in cherem without regard to the consequences by going OTD.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Dubner Maggid with the above reply #2054338 explains the mishna in Pirkei Avos שלי שלך, שלך שלך חסיד. If mine is yours isn’t obvious that your is yours? So he says that a person, when in question, is willing to give up his by saying mine is yours because he wants to be sure that the other person’s belongings stay with him. and his is his.
January 28, 2022 1:31 pm at 1:31 pm in reply to: Classics and Beyond Mishpatim – Soul-Snatching: Rav Shimon Schwab #2055741Reb EliezerParticipantMaybe that is what King Solomon means חנוך לנער לפי דרכו, raise your child according to his needs and not yours. Don’t kidnap his abilities to satisfy your needs.
January 28, 2022 9:36 am at 9:36 am in reply to: Mods, I know Im a handful, but I have lots of fun here #2055701Reb EliezerParticipantAlso, get a spell checker.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhite supremacist hate Jews as well as blacks who are not from the Arian race. sticka kehodoa, when Trump does not speak out against them, he gives them the impression that he agrees with them and strength to strive.
January 27, 2022 12:27 pm at 12:27 pm in reply to: after many meaningful conversations om YWN I am now a democrat #2055472Reb EliezerParticipantMazel Tov
Reb EliezerParticipantThe mishna in the beginning of Bava Kama enumerates four means of causing harm. They can also be interpreted spiritually. The ox standing erectly, gaiva, the digging of a pit, being in the pits, sinning through the mouth, fire of desire, taiva. These mainly contribute to our sins.
Reb EliezerParticipantHe is completely narcissistic who has not stood up against white supremacists because he would have lost their votes. Only showed concern towards his rich cronies with his tax cuts by enriching the already rich corporations. He wanted to overturn the election by choosing false electors through storming the Capitol because he did not like the results.
Reb EliezerParticipantIn my time, I got a transfer to another bus which I would not get if not paid or the bus card has the payment on it, so the transfer was not required.
Reb EliezerParticipantA person can judge his own behavior with the interpretation of Rav Nasson Adler ztz’l as quoted by the talmid, the Chasam Sofer. כי יתן איש אל רעיהו כסף או כלים לשמור Hashem (being referred to as Ish) gives a person money and kelim, utensils (eyes, ears, mouth) to guard וגונב מבית האיש and he steals it away from Hashem by using it for his own purpose rather than doing mitzvos. אם ימצא הגנב ישלם שנים if he is found guilty by judgement Above, one pays double, one, for not listening and two, for not letting Hashem do good to him. אם לא ימצא הגנב, if he repents through love, so the sin gets completely erased, ונקרב בעל הבית אל האלקים, he brings himself closer to Hashem, more than if he never sinned, provided אם לא שלח ידו במלאכת רעיהו, if he did not violate sins of ben adam lechavero, personal inter- relationships.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe have a saf, siyan and samech, otherwise how would we write כסילים מתי תשכילו when we the fools understand.
Reb EliezerParticipantJudgement from Above is mentioned by Rashi 21,13. Two individuals where one killed intentionally and other unintentionally and there are no witnesses for either one. Hashem invites them to one motel. The one who killed intentionally sleeps in a bunkbed below and other above. The one from above falls on the one from below and kills him with witnesses. Now, the one above goes to orei miklat, to exile and the one below got killed.
Reb EliezerParticipanttongue
Reb EliezerParticipantIt says תפילה בלא כוונה כגוף בלא נשמה, tefila without kavana is like a body without a soul.
Reb EliezerParticipantIsaiah Hanavi calls it mitzvos anashim melumadim, done from route without thinking when tefila is called avoda shebelev, work from the heart. The work is to have the proper kavonos, thoughts.
January 24, 2022 5:52 pm at 5:52 pm in reply to: What Steps Will the Charedi World Take to Try to Prevent Abuse #2054302Reb EliezerParticipantAvira, as a rebbe, you must agree that yeshiva boys must be educated of the great sin of motzei shem ra to accuse some one for abuse. Having them realize that it is not a game and the consequences it causes to the accused and the false accuser.
Reb EliezerParticipantWolf, getting a MBA does not make you an apikores. It actually makes us understand a mishna in Bava Metzia. It says הזהב קונה את הכסף, gold acquires silver because silver becomes the currency and gold a commodity. Why? Gresham’s Law says, bad money drives out good money from circulation. The bad money here is silver which becomes currency, being spent and gold will be horded and not spent becoming a commodity.
Reb EliezerParticipantI heard that we start shmonei esrai by saying, Hashem open up my mouth to be able to utter your praises. Then, all we do is to ask for our needs. Where is the praise? The fact that we turn to Hashem to ask only from Him to fulfil or wishes is the praise. Wolf, so it is self understood that if you praised your mother is because of she being your mother and her abilities to raise you to be shomrei Torah umitzvos came from Hashem.
Reb EliezerParticipantAvira, shouldn’t it be OC 307 as 317 has to do with tying knots?
January 23, 2022 3:31 pm at 3:31 pm in reply to: What Steps Will the Charedi World Take to Try to Prevent Abuse #2053765Reb EliezerParticipantLook at sota. She acted questionably and she has to prove herself innocent. What caused the accusation to this individual?
Reb EliezerParticipantEJMRBro, It is one thing to pointed out as people make mistakes and another lehachis not to the follow it especially when others also pointed it out. You wanted to become a writer.
January 23, 2022 2:14 pm at 2:14 pm in reply to: Can Someone Help Me Understand Why Biden’s Approval Rating is so Low? #2053756Reb EliezerParticipantPeople only look at results. It does not matter that the Senate is obstructing him and he is unable to live up to his promises. What have you done for me lately?
