Reb EliezerParticipant
With can explain many things with E=mc2. Hashem create everything from energy as in string theory. His movement being everywhere greater than the speed of light where time stops. את הברכה אשר תשמעו we need that the condition be before action but by Hashem everything happens now.
April 23, 2021 1:06 pm at 1:06 pm in reply to: According to the Torah, was Chauvin Allowed to Kill Floyd? #1967426Reb EliezerParticipantThe whole thing does not apply. The Rambam paskens Hilchas Melochim (9,4):
רמב”ם הלכות מלכים פרק ט הלכה ד
בן נח שהרג נפש אפילו עובר במעי אמו נהרג עליו, וכן אם הרג טריפה או שכפתו ונתנו לפני הארי או שהניחו ברעב עד שמת, הואיל והמית מכל מקום נהרג, וכן אם הרג רודף שיכול להצילו באחד מאיבריו נהרג עליו, מה שאין כן בישראל. +/השגת הראב”ד/ וכן אם הרג רודף וכו’. א”א קשיא ליה אבנר, עכ”ל.+There is no such a thing as a rodaf by a goy.
April 23, 2021 1:06 pm at 1:06 pm in reply to: According to the Torah, was Chauvin Allowed to Kill Floyd? #1967427Reb EliezerParticipantSee Shut Mishneh Halachos (7,281) how he explains the difference between a Jew and a goy.
April 23, 2021 1:06 pm at 1:06 pm in reply to: Learning Torah with the method prescribed by the s”a harav #1967441Reb EliezerParticipantFor learning sugyas a sefer caled Kesef Nivchar, having in it 160 sugyas, is recommended.
Reb EliezerParticipantcoffee addict, by a business there is an issur of maasei gevul. Putting a net out is a large catch applying to a business. However, by the talis it is not assur because of massei gevul but ani hamhapech bachararah which only applies with proper kinyonim and not intentions.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe hint in Melachim is the GRA. kav = 106 and kavo with a ‘heh’ = 111, adjusting
3(111) = 333/106 = 3.141509
Maybe we can adjust it. There is a known value of PI accurate to 6 decimal places, 355/113=3.1415929.. By including the additional vov we have vekav = 112, vekavoh = 117
3(117) = 351 add to it the number of letters of 4 = 355/113 adjusting the denominator by a kolel.April 22, 2021 10:27 pm at 10:27 pm in reply to: According to the Torah, was Chauvin Allowed to Kill Floyd? #1967242Reb EliezerParticipantLakewhut, your logic is gavre dekatila kotla, but a rodaf is a protection to save a life, so he is not considered a katila.
April 22, 2021 2:14 pm at 2:14 pm in reply to: Kedoshim: Benefits of the Benefit of the Doubt: Sfas Emes & Baal Shem Tov #1967150Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chasam Sofer explains Pirkei Avos (1,1) הוו מתונים בדין, והעמידו תלמידים הרבה, ועשו סיג לתורה When it comes to the other person, don’t judge him too fast. However for yourself, don’t trust yourself, create many students and protect yourself by setting fences not to falter.

April 22, 2021 12:51 pm at 12:51 pm in reply to: Did Democrats learn About the French Revolution? #1967091Reb EliezerParticipantThe topic should be reworded Learn from the Aftermath of the French Revolution, the Reign of Terror. It happened in Iraq if there is a vaccum in leadeship, insurgents take over. The Torah warns us not to destroy the kenanim fast as the wild animals will take over.
Reb EliezerParticipantPartidipant, if a legislature creates an anti-semitic law should the police enforce it?
April 22, 2021 10:30 am at 10:30 am in reply to: Did Democrats learn About the French Revolution? #1967009Reb EliezerParticipantIf I understand the French Revolution was against an autocratic King Louis XVI.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe police admitted thati they violated the law by paying $27 million to the Floyd family.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat is so bad with peace enforcers?
April 21, 2021 11:14 pm at 11:14 pm in reply to: Kedoshim: Benefits of the Benefit of the Doubt: Sfas Emes & Baal Shem Tov #1966878Reb EliezerParticipantThe Daroshes Haran 2 says that mida kaneged mida reflects on the hashgacha of Hashem and therefore it helps to realize what one did wrong and do teshuva on it.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Rash in Kelaim (5,5) quotes the Pythagorean Theorem in the name of Chachmei Hamidos.
Reb EliezerParticipantAAQ, What you are saying is a Perush Hamishnayus from the Rambam on the mishna in Eruvin. If the diameter is a tefach, the circumference is three tefochim. The Rambam explains that Pi is impossible to be known exactly, so the mishna took it as three, a round number, as the yam shel shelomo.
April 21, 2021 8:04 pm at 8:04 pm in reply to: Kedoshim: Benefits of the Benefit of the Doubt: Sfas Emes & Baal Shem Tov #1966833Reb EliezerParticipantTo clarify, behind his back, judge him for the good but to admonish him personally, do not call him names as the Shlah Hakadash explains, do not admonish a joker because he might hate you but admonish a chacham and he will love you. When admonishing one, don’t call him a joker or a fool but tell him he is a chacham.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe phiosophers questioned, G-d is all good, so how can there be any bad? The answer is that the fault is not in the giver but in the taker. The sun is good but some get burned.
Reb EliezerParticipantYou must be good in mathematics. A square of has for every 1 on the side 1 2/5 (square root of 2) in its diagonal. Tosfas in Sukkah (8,1), kol amseh, explains that it is inaccurate. 5 in the side would have 5 times the square root of two, 5 times 1 2/5, 7, according to the above, in its diagonal but the area of the inner square (rombus) of 5 times the square root of 2 is one half of 100 or 50 (the area of a half of square of 10) and not 7 squared 49.
April 21, 2021 5:04 pm at 5:04 pm in reply to: Kedoshim: Benefits of the Benefit of the Doubt: Sfas Emes & Baal Shem Tov #1966820Reb EliezerParticipantThe Rav Abarbanel explains (the psychiatrist accept it also) lo siso alov chet, don’t label a person by name but question his behavior or actions. If you call him names placing the sin on him personally, you are taking away the ability from him to do teshuva. You can change your behavior or actions but not yourself. The Torah gives an advice how to avoid lashon hara by placing one next to another. If you judge a person for the good, you will not gossip about him.
Reb EliezerParticipantGrammar, to be able to differentiate between good and well, and who and whom needs education.
April 21, 2021 4:10 pm at 4:10 pm in reply to: Learning Torah with the method prescribed by the s”a harav #1966805Reb EliezerParticipantThe problem with the daf yomi is this that much is learned but little is remembered. It has heen suggested to learn an amed yomi with the halachas on it, so a person will remember what he learned.
If a person understands what he learned, he will remember it. Learning in a chavrusa with questions and answers should help to remember. Some websites provide questions and answers. Learning a sugya might also work. Currently repeating the same thing multiple times is not very interesting, so people will not do it.Reb EliezerParticipantMeshiach is a Ben David, how can he be a kohen gadol?
Reb EliezerParticipantWhen someone passed on to the next world, the gate keeper asked, who is this? He was answered, it is I. He retorted back, another English teacher.
April 20, 2021 6:42 pm at 6:42 pm in reply to: Acharei – The Kohen Gadol in Kodshei Kodoshim #1966537Reb EliezerParticipantsamthenylic, could be also, it says in the beginning of the parasha that the kohen gadol should not go anytime to the kapores in order not to die, but with zos (408) which kol (136), tzom (136) and mamon (136) being teshuva. tefila and tzedakah indicating a worthy human being.
April 20, 2021 10:44 am at 10:44 am in reply to: How can I get my sefer into the hands of yeshiva bochurim #1966309Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a Rabbenu Bachaya at the end of Parashas Ki Siso explaining the purpose of Torah Shebaal Peh with a parable. A king wrote a letter to his son commanding him with a process of behavior and the reward him for its performance. For fearing that the letter will fall in the wrong hands and requiring to fulfil the reward, some information he left out and transmitted orally. Originally Rebbi only wrote down what was necessary for the understanding as concise as possible. As the generations became weaker in their understanding, more elaboration was required. With this he explains the expression חסורא מחסרא והכי קתני the mishna left it out on purpose. The Ksav Sofer in Parashas Yisro from his father, the Chasam Sofer, has a different parable. A father had a gold mine and had multiple sons but he wanted that his youngest son should inherit it. In order not to create jealousy, he taught his youngest son the act of goldmining and divided it equally. As the others did not know what to do with it, it fell automatically to the youngest son. The Torah Shebeksav is a goldmine, the act of gold mining is the Torah Shebaal Peh and the youngest son are we the Bnei Yisroel. Hashem chose us by teaching us the Torah Shebaal Peh which is necessary to understand the Torah Shebeksav, the goldmine, letter interpreted orally.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Maharam Shik O’CH 120 asks all the questions on the above Dagul Mervovo O’CH 271,2 if it is because of shlichus or shomea keona and why we need arevus.
Reb EliezerParticipantRead the Feldheim book Reb Shayele, The Warmth and Wonder of Kerestir, by Rabbi Yisroel Besser.
Reb EliezerParticipantWithout the Ketzos we interpret the Tosfas Rid that if is a chiyuv shebegufo, one wearing tefiin is a chiyuv on the body which does not turn into the other’s body but one can bind tefilin on the other’s hand.
Reb EliezerParticipantShould be above, where there is no chiyuv.
Reb EliezerParticipanttorahvaluesoverparty, I don’t see the Relublicans helping the poor by job training, education loans and tax cuts for the middle class.
Reb EliezerParticipantParticipant, arevus makes that connection between us to be motzei each otber mitaam shelichus even though the chiyuv is not the same as long there is a chiyuv excluding a goy where is no chiyuv.
Reb EliezerParticipantNeither are right when they go to extremes.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Ketzos helped us to understand the Tosfas Rid. Obviously the Tosfas Rid needs no help.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Dagul Mervovoh asks, how can man be motzei the women with kiddush when the men after davening maariv are only mechuyav miderabonon and the women are mechuyav min hatorah? So they answer mitaam arevus, but men to women the Rosh says that there is no arevus. Answers Rebbi Akiva Eiger that on the mitzvas that women are responsible there is arevus.
Reb EliezerParticipantBTW, punishment for bad doing is not against liberalism. It is required by society to force proper behavior. I think conservatism, being selfish, is against the Torah. The government is there to provide a jump start for everyone.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Tosfas Rid wiith tbe help of the Ketzos explain the conditions for shlichas. It only appies where a massei,an action is involved but you can’t make a shliach to wear tefilin for you as the lying on the hand is the mitzva. So the fruits of the action transfers from one to an other.
A cute interpretation on שלוחו של אדם כמותו Adam Harishon was punished by being sent out of tbe Gan Eden instead of dying of the day he ate from the eitz hadaas.Reb EliezerParticipantThe whole thing is false. Liberalism believes, everyone should be treated equaly. When someone did not have the background and education by discrimination and allowance be made. The holy Torah is for equal treatment for everyone. A servant is provided a home and support. One who buys a jewish servant buys a master for himself. A non-jewish servant was converted. Sometimes we go overboard for equal treatment.
Reb EliezerParticipantThinking it over the arei miklat case is where he did a regular function like cutting wood and the axe portion dislodges itself and kills someine. However over here, she should have known better and therefore, she might be negligent.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe ACA (Obama Care) was instituted recently, what have the Republicans done for the poor?
Reb EliezerParticipantI took my regents going to high school in a chassidishe yeshiva, Chasan Sofer where we only learned in yiddish and took hebrew as an extra language getting an a academic degree.
Reb EliezerParticipantSyag, I think you are very considerate.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Demoxrats instituted Social Security, Unemployment Insurance, Medicare and ACA from which the Republicans are enjoying their fruits.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Kohen and Levi with treumos and maasros are getting paid for the work in the Beis Hanikdash, so it is not bread of shame. They are even getting it when no Beis Hamikdash to make sure they will always get it as people will not see the difference. They were free from work to teach people the Torah where ths Levi supports the Kohen.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe mishna at the end kf Maseches Menochos says that the importance is not the amount but the proper intention of the heart. Rav Ovadyah Yosef ztz’l has an implication the letters after אך (less) and גם (more) is לב.
Reb EliezerParticipantI am retired on Social Security and did not get any extra money from tax cuts which just put us into a greater deficit and not growing the economy by providing more jobs. I took advantage of the CETA, Comprehensive Employment and Training Act, program through Project Cope from the Agudah eliminated by Reagan. The COVID relief $1400 was from the Democrats compared to $600 from the Republicans.
Reb EliezerParticipantLife is a sink a swim but the holy Torah recognizes the requirement to help people when they are down, so the helpers will helped when they are down. We realize that our wealth comes from the help of Hashem and we are distrihuters of the money provided to us.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe don’t have to follow their lenientcies and what is wrong not the destroy the environment Hashem has provided us? Borders are not being opened up just the immigrants, being one of them, not dealt with cruely. Encourage adoptions, as I did, will cause less abortions and psycological rehabilitatuon for lgbtq behavior. Funding the palestinians is a means of making peace.
