Baal Shem Tov al Hatotah, Noam Elimelech, Yismach Moshe, Ach Peri Tevuah and Noam Megodim.
Could be an air conditioner makes a noise.
Hilel listened through the skylight of the roof to learn Torah.
The goy does not have to send it on shabbos, he can sent it when scheduled.
This is less than machshichin al hatchum, to wait my the techum for shabbos finishing which is allowed for a mitzva, so I don’t see what is wrong. Chal Hamoed you can use your computer as the display is not permanent.
No, Rav Moshe Meir Wess Shlita moved to Lakewood.
Also, don’t say one is bad but their actions or behavior which can be changed,
The Yaaros Devash asks on the megilla, because their dasom, rules, are different destroy them personally? So he says that Haman asked on the dasam to get destroyed which the king agreed on but he changed the text referring to the Jews.
In the Midbar they were free to learn as shmita time which is compared to midbar sinai. The Kohanim, who were also supported, were free to learn when it was not their time to do the avoda. The women were busy raising children so they only learned what was necessary for them to do their mitzvas.
The Midrash says that Adam Harishon sacrificed a unicorn. The Ksav Sofer explains that one horn reflects the unique devotion to Hashem as the horn points to the heaven. The Midrash says to write on ‘keren hashor’ rather than karnei hashor indicating that what should reflect the unique existence of G-d they should deny. I heard from Rabbi Moshe Meir Weiss that they would use the horn of an ox to feed a baby milk. So they wanted them to deny Hashem from birth.
Alan Alda has Jewish children as his wife is jewish. Michael Landon is not Jewish as his mother was not Jewish but Lorne Greene is.
It could be of jealousy as the Kli Yakar says in Parashas Devorim on penu lochem tzafana, to be hidden in galus and to incite them.
Be vigilant not to get cheated as Gedalya ben Achikam should have been.
The Chasam Sofer explains that Gid Hanashah is forbidden to remember not to mix with the goyim, to avoid their influence and not to ask for their first name to befriend them.
Don’t assume that his actions are altruistic without self interest as by Yisro, vayichad, even when happy was not fully happy until ten generations.
For a discussion see:
I have lived in Staten Island for 44 years where we had an influx of chasiddim recently.
When we ask for Hashem’s help to serve Him, we ask for daas, the proper mindset, so our bechira is not affected.
I had a Pfizer booster on J&J after 7 months.
The holy Shlah explains the pasuk in Mishli אל תוכיח לץ פן ישנאך. when admonishing someone don’t call him a fool as he will hate you, הוכיח חכם ויאהבך, call him a chacham, the wise one and he will love you. Also the Rav Abarbanel says, לא תשא עליו חטא, don’t put the sin on him by labeling him. Maybe rather say that people do instead of you do.
The same reason we need to daven in a fixed place, makom kevua. To daven is like an arrow which when shot always from the same place, will penetrate. So the expectation of a gate for a particular shevat is a fixed prayer. When we daven betzibur, in a group together, it should not matter. The custom of a person might override the nusach of the tzibur according to the Chasam Sofer above.
We accomplish more through positive reinforcement. For ourselves it can be mussar but for others it should be chizuk.
Achdus, unity is not always recommended. The convention of 1866 in Michalovce (Nagymihaly, place in Hungary that time) caused the excommunication of the reform movement from the orthodox when they denied following the Shulchan Aruch. The Maharam Shik interpreted emes vehashalom ahovu, first emes then shalom. Truth must come before peace. They applied hibodlu mitoch haeida hara, separate yourself from the bad group. Ein shalom omar Hashem lerashaim, no peace says Hashem to the wicked. When it comes to the orthodox, there are many ways of serving Hashem, so it should not matter how.
Chizuk, we should always emphasize the positive, The Haflaah in Panim Yafos says uvocharto bachaim, chose life. Remembering the day of death should be the last resort,
We in the Agudah of Staten island with a new Rav Moshe Klein Shlita daven Ashkenaz, so in the green room by Rav Pollak Shlita and the Young Israel.
cofffee addict, wishing you the same and everyone else in CR.
One who digs a pit for others, falls into it. – Koheles and a Hungarian proverb.
I moved there 1977. My wife’s a’h cousin decided to move here from Boro Park, buy a house. She wanted us to buy the companion house of two semi-detached houses. Currently they moved a long time ago to the Woodmere, Long Island. My daughter lives in Oceanside and my son in Marine Park, so I am on my own.
Blacks are named Ezra.
Adas Yereim (Wiener) in Williamsburg on 27-31 Lee Avenue, switched to sefard.
I say maarovis for myself and daven ashkenaz, even when they daven sefard, saying Kedusha quietly as the above Chasam Sofer and not Reb Moshe ztz’l.
I recently went to a wedding where the Rav’s shlita son married his second cousin (Zeltenreich, the Rav’s mother’s brother) where there were more shtreimels than not.
Last shabbos, we had a Carlbach kabbolas shabbos in the Agudah of Staten Island which was very uplifting.
The only time we davened Sefard in Chasan Sofer when we relocated by Rav Shmuel ztz’l temporarily to a sefard shul (not nusach sefard, minhag hamakom) in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn somewhere on 64th Street.
Always tell the truth or be quite and don’t say anything. If verifying and finding an incorrect halacha paskened or pshat which effects halacha is said, admit it and don’t cover it up as Shiman Hamasini gave up on darshening esin.

GAONMy Rebbi the Matersdorfer Rav, Rav Shmuel ztz’l wore a gartel underneath his beketcher. Only a pasul Sefer Torah has a gartel on the outside.
Tzvi Hershel, Zev Wolf, Dov Berel, Aryeh Leib

It should above Plotzker.

GAONThe Maharal, Ketzos, Shagas Aryeh, Potzker who left behind that for whomever publishes his seforim he will be a melitz yosher, a defender above, and the Kol Aryeh.
Hershel goes with Tzvi, Leib with Aryeh, Wolf with Zev and Berel with Dov.
The Biur Halacha 427 when it came to 5743 says, that Meshiach had come already a long time ago.
The same applies to the Republicans where President Reagan would be considered a RINO (Republican in name only) now.
The Chasam Sofer says in O’CH 15 that both have the same kavonos which was revealed by the Arizal for nusach sefard as he was a sefardi which is argued by the Minchas Elozor, so if someone wants to be mechaven should daven nusach sefard as Rav Nossan Adler did but all others davened Ashkenaz. The Divrei Chaim says that nusach sefard is an inclusive davenen for all shevotim who don’t know their origin. He says that one can convert from ashkenaz to sefard but not vice versa. The Magen Avraham says in O’CH 68 that each shevat has his own gate where its tefila goes through. The Pri Megodim argues and forbids changing in either direction.
I heard from someone who was named Shaya, it is good that my father did not also name me Getz because then I would have been called shaygetz, which is a diminutive for sheketz.
סיג לחכמה שתיקה, the border of wisdom is silence. Say only what is necessary for understanding.
The Chasam Sofer interprets וסרתם מן הדרך when one turns off the walked on way (mesorah), can lead to ועבדתם אלהים אחרים to worshipping a’z, אשר לא ידעתם. what you don’t realize.
