There is a mesorah הלוך ונסוע, הלוך וחסור, הלוך ובכו, for learning, if one travels, then he will lose and at the end he will be crying.
How do we know that one accused was falsely accused as people should know the great issur of motzei shem ra and its effects? Don’t we have to be suspicious?
EJMRBro, are you such an anav who does not capitalize his ‘i’s however, when quoting from someone else, you can do it.
Aren’t you questioning the Daf Hayomi?
We can learn mussar from the goyim by how they run after a ball to run after a mitzva. We see this from Bilom when he bridled the donkey and was told that Avraham Avinu already did that, so he will not get any reward for his diligence.
The stories to learn from should be told without mentioning any names.
Trump down played the virus.
How many deaths is Trump responsible?
Phil, I misspoke, I did not mean a guarantee. I meant as you pointed out, a tendency.
Follow the Rules of Grammar by adding an apostrophe to show possession or when combining words. Also capitalize your topic title when appropriate.
Reb Moshe, ztz’l says to read veshinantom osom as veshinantem atem indicating that when we learn, our children, through seeing it, will also learn. I heard, הליכות עולם אל תקראו הליכות אלא הלכות, people learn how to behave from one’s behavior.
Wolf, Master’s degree in what?
The problem is that they don’t know that we follow the mother and therefore think they are Jewish. BTW to understand why we follow the mother, I think, by creating something knew like a Jew, we go after the mother as yesh eim lamikro, but once determined Jewish, we follow the father, binyan av as a kohen, levi or yisrael.
Parents should raise children such that they should not be afraid to speak their mind to them. Abused parents will abuse children. A parable to understand the Abarbanel on honoring parents is where a father provided a wooden plate to his father, afraid being feeble and break it. When the grandfather passed on, the father wanted to discard it. His son told him, father don’t throw it out we need it for you. Children see how their parents behave and tend to follow them. If you honor your parents, your children will honor you and thereby have long life.
He did mention thanking for prayer alluding to thanking G-d who listened to the prayer.
The Oxford comma can be forgiven as usually the sentence can be rephrased. AAQ, aren’t you preaching water but drinking wine with the word “and”?
Also, capitalizing titles of topics when proper. When combining words inserting the apostrophe between them e.g. I’m instead of Im.
Why does Hashem send the cure before the illness? The gemora in Shabbos 30 says that one should pray not to get sick because if one waits when being ill, might not be worthy to get cured. Therefore, Hashem sends the medicine before needing to pray for it.
What does Im mean?
Reb Shlomo, I appreciate what you are saying even though being younger than you having today a birthday of 74 years. I went to Chasan Sofer and had a secular education seder in the afternoon gaining a high school academic degree by taking the Regents. I also went to Brooklyn College and got trained through the Agudah in Computer Programming at Cope Institute. I worked in Brooklyn College as a Senior Research Aid when I followed up at NYU Courant Institute towards a Masters in Mathematics,
The Mattersdorfer Rav ztz’l explained the passage עם הארץ אסור לאכול בשר, an am haaretz is not allowed to eat meat because he sends his son to college so is chaish lemeuta, the minority that he will come out as good as he went in. The gemora questions according Rebbi Meir, how one could eat meat maybe he shechted at the windpipe or the veshet, the food pipe in place of a hole, therefore, we go after the rov, the majority but he goes after the minority. I said to be careful not be like Haran to go in the fire because Avraham survived. I was specially careful not to go to unnecessary places like the student center.
There is a story which happened with the Chasan Sofer. Rav Shmuel zy’a, the grandson of the Chasam Sofer, was learning with a candle in his hand and he fell asleep dropping the candle. The gemora started to burn. The Chasam Sofer came in a dream to his mother, daughter of the Chasam Sofer, telling her to rush as he son is in danger. The gemora, half burned still exists by the Ehrenfeld family.
Einstein’s Theory explains the creation from nothing i.e. not material but from energy. The Rash quotes the Pythagorean Theorem in Kilaim 5,5 in the name of Chachmei Hamidos.
Science helps us in understanding the Torah. Gresham’s Law in economics helps to the understand a mishna in Bava Metzia. 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.
The Chasan Sofer taught us for the Regents.
The OP is remembering Yogi Berra.
It is said l’toeles provided you have a good reason to say it. I think the government forbids saying something positive against it.
They say hechsher X is not recommended.
Even if one bad apple in FBI, Ray Epps, instigates to storm the Capitol does not mean that everyone else should follow him.
