Reb EliezerParticipant
The president is crazy. After the Retrumpicans did everything to stop a bigger stimulus direct pwyment, he goes and blows the whole thing up by willing to veto the bill if tbey don’t agree to give a bigger payment.
See https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/featured/1931096/watch-it-president-trump-sends-covid-bill-back-to-congress.htmlReb EliezerParticipantReferring to the Yabia Omer above letter 15 from the Cbazon Ish that this stringency leads to a leniency. We find the Nodah Beyehudah allowed to shave with a poor worker on Chal Hamoad as if we let his beard grow to long, he might have to use a saar or gilette which is surely assur. It might be uncomfortable to grow a beard, protecting against pimples underneath it, using the above method. What happens to lo silbash if no stubles are left using cream or powder?
Reb EliezerParticipantShould be above verapah yerapeh.
Reb EliezerParticipantSimilarly, Trump creates a safe haven with his rhetoric toward white supremacists.
Reb EliezerParticipantIt says כל המחלה אשר שמתי במצרים לא אשים עליך כי אני ה’ רפאך, all illness which are placed on Mitzraim I will not place on you because I am Hashem your healer. We see that Hashem is the Healer before the illness has arrived. By the doctor, healer is referred to by a ‘peh’ as yerapoh yerapeh whereas by Hashem by an ‘feh’ rofecha. The Rabbenu Bachaya explains that a doctor’s cure is hard whereas Hashem’s is light. The doctor has a double expression, requiring to return to cure the side affects or get a second opinion, which by Hashem is not required.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chasam Sofer argues in O’CH 159 about kabalah and imitating the goyim. Leaving stubles should preclude lo silbash.
Reb EliezerParticipantWolfson what do you do if people need to shave?
Reb EliezerParticipantAs my own idea, malochim don’t know what is in the mind of people, so Hashem as part of his mercy, allows them to listen to the prayer and they will bring the above statement to fruition.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe topic is discussed in detail in Yabia Omer YD (9,10) especially what I mentioned before about not pressing the machine to the face.
Reb EliezerParticipantShould be above Hamispalel.
Reb EliezerParticipantHamispakel bead acherim vehu tzeruch leioso davar hu neenu techila, whoever prays for others and he needs the same, will be answered first as he shows that he cares for others more.
Reb EliezerParticipantYou are right I mispelled it. It should be Martial Law.
Reb EliezerParticipantMake sure you don’t press the machine to your face.
Reb EliezerParticipantTrump is dangerous with his Marshal Law.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe last day of Chanukah is called Zos Chanukah for its leining. Kol, tefila (136), tzom, teshuva, milchemes hayetzer (136) and mamon, tzedaka (136) together add up to 408 as zos, ches Chanukah, the eight day of Chanukah. These are the means to come to teshuva as Yaakov Avinu taught us by greeting Eisov. Bezos Yavoh Aharon, with this preparation Aharon came to the mishkan.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhen Paraoh tells the dream to Yosef, he adds the word I stand by sefas hayeor, by the riverside but at the original dream is it not mentioned. Pharaoh wanted to test Yosef if he also knows the dream itself. So to the Bnei Yesoschor, Yosef said, שפת לא ידעתי אשמע I hear a sefas which I don’t understand.
Reb EliezerParticipantIn this week’s parasha Miketz we find an implication for Chanukah. Yosef said וטבח טבח והכן the last two words טב חנוכה tav Chanukah, why here and why tav and not tov? The midrash says אתה שמרת השבת עד שלא נתנה, חייך שבן בנך עתיד להקריב בשבת, you kept shabbos before it was given, I swear that your grandson will do the sacrifice on shabbos, so the shevet of Ephraim will sacrifice on shabbos at the dedication of the mishkan. The Chasam Sofer answers the kashye above of טומאה הותרה בצבור the impurity was pemitted in a tzibur, so why was the neis required in the first place. The mishkan was completed on the 25th of kislev but was posponed to Rosh Chodesh Nissan when the avos were born because it would not have come out that Yosef’s shevet sacrificed on shabbos, so Chanukah came about to be repayed for the day. Now if we apply this rule of permiting tuma, what did we gain as tuma, impurity is on the level of shabbos which we did not want to violate with the sacrifice.
As mentioned above the Rabbinic prohibition of tuma became enforced with the neis of Chanukah and that is the implication of the word tav, good in aramaic rather than tov, loshan hakodesh.Reb EliezerParticipantThe Binah Leitim Darush 18, interprets Pharao’s dream differently. Who asked Yosef to find a manager on Mitzraim to make sure that grain is collected for the seven skinny years? He says the seven fat years also contained seven skinny years as some tevuah was set aside and vice versa, the seven skinny years was seven fat years as the collected grain was dispersed. What needs an explanation the question about the repetion which seems to be necessary for each of the seven years.
Reb EliezerParticipantAre the Retrumpicans here to stay?
Reb EliezerParticipantujm, since the president and vice president are in question, the speaker of the house would become temporary president.
Reb EliezerParticipantSorry bored guy, I have a problem understanding you.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe find a similar idea when it says Vaykro (25,39) ki yamich achicha ‘imoch’, your brother became impoverished with you. Feel like you became poor with him. Be nosei beol im chavera, carry the yoke togeher with your friend.
Reb EliezerParticipantThings happened out of their control and currently they are unable to pay, so they are not a rasha but an onas. Smerel the way you speak you must be a Republican. We are all in the same boat and either sail together or sink together. Borrowing money for education benefits the government as they will become a skilled worker able to pay taxes.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhen I went to Brooklyn College I only paid for the first 18 credits, $18 per credit, proving that I can succeed and than be matriculated. For NYU graduate school it was $100 per credit for 24 credits for a masters degree.
Reb EliezerParticipantAbortion by the goyim is murder but it is not necessary as they can be given up for adoption with nice compensation. I adopted a boy being 36 now and a girl 34 now. They are both shomrei torah umitzvas.
Reb EliezerParticipantMurder for whom? Look at the Rav Chezkuni in Parshas Mishpotim whose reasons I quoted. Rov are not viable until thirty days as in Pidyan Haben but no rov by goyim. Rashi says that a woman is executed with the baby in the womb being one entity as a calf in the womb needs no shechita. The gemora says the Jews were only commanded on the fetus heavenly.
Reb EliezerParticipantThey support Democrats because they care for the average working person. We have nothing to do with LGBTQ and people do abortions as a last resort. By the Jews, it is not murder as it is not considered viable until born, money is paid on a loss of a baby and an execution was done together with the baby in the womb.
Reb EliezerParticipantJudging them as each individual on his/her own and accept them, basever panim yafos, with pleasantness.
Reb EliezerParticipantThere is an inyan vayofutsu mqyenosov chutzo spreading the Torah to the public by mainly being poskim, so the public must support it but being talmidei chachomum for themselves is not our responsibility to support.
Reb EliezerParticipantIt says, haveh don es kol ‘hoodom’ lekaf zechus, Pirkei Avos (1,6), by looking at the whole person when judging them.
Reb EliezerParticipantAs I proved above from Rabbenu Bachya, Rav Nasan Adler ztz’l above that Eis Laasos is not a general heter as Rav Steinzaltz sees it by changing the tzuras hadaf and elimination of hagohas. Every individual should evaluate his eis laasos. The litvishe tend to accomodate like tehilim, yud gimel midos at night and bima beamtza, whereas the chasiddishe see the reverse heferu torosecha eis laasos Hashem being steadfast and not budging an inch.
Reb EliezerParticipantThey can sit and learn, take a stipend but I am not mechuyav to support but a kolel in our neighborhood set up to generate moreh horaoh yunge leit, I support.
Reb EliezerParticipantDY, look at the end of the teshuva emphasizing halacha and baalei haroah.
Reb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantTrump has been mostly uncaring, contradictory and simply stupid by forcing out and firing his best advisors. If someone is smart, he is willing to listen to an opposing view not to have tunnel vision.
Reb EliezerParticipantDecember 15, 2020 12:52 pm at 12:52 pm in reply to: Another Health/Ubiquitin “Classic”. Will it ever end? #1928806Reb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantDY, according to your interpretation of Reb Moshe, everyone should sit and learn as it is impossible to learn as much or as well when going to work.
Reb EliezerParticipantDY, I know that you are driven my the above Biur Halacha but I interpret it for wanting to be a moreh haroah or the father in law willing to support his son in law, otherwise the tzibbur is not mechiyav to support him for sitting and learning.
Reb EliezerParticipantMitch McConnell just accepted Biden as the President Elect.
Reb EliezerParticipantDY, according to you what is the psak?
Reb EliezerParticipantThe neis was the first day after finding the oil, everyone relying on the same hashgacha.
Reb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantAn interesting shaila came about Rosh Chodash Chanukah where the baal tefila finished al hanisim but came to realize before finishing shmonei asrei that he forgot to say yaleh veyova, does he have to repeat al hanisim? I ruled that even though the individual would repeat it, the baal tefila going back to say yaaleh vayova but he already did his parsumei nissei and because of tirchei detziburei should not repeat it al hanisim again.
Reb EliezerParticipanthealth, if people say you are drunk, it is a good idea to lie down and not to drive. If you are told Biden won, accept it.
December 14, 2020 3:14 pm at 3:14 pm in reply to: Did Trump cut off vaccine shipments to Israel? #1928526Reb EliezerParticipantArutz Sheva says that the vaccine is held back in Belgium, not giving a reason why.
Reb EliezerParticipantIf the girl requires you to sit and the learn and father in law will support you, kol hakovad but the Rambam refers to the case where someone is in a kolel and supported from the tzedakah there only currently one who wants to be a morah haroah should take advantage of.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe cannot ruin something without the susceptibility to be ruined.
Reb EliezerParticipantNot everyone is suitable to be a morah horaoh, cherev muneches al tzavora, otherwise yegiah kapecha ki sachel yoser miyiras shomayim and there is the reason of eis laasos. Rav Nosan Adler ztz’l did not write a sefer only placed a mark on the margin to remember as he had a photographic memory. The Rabbenu Bachya in Parshas Ki Siso explains the meaning of chasurei mechsurei that originally it was unnecessary to write things done in detail but as the generations became weaker more required to be written down in detail, so things were left out on purpose.
