Reb EliezerParticipant
He said, stand back and stand by. Wait until I need you. I misquoted above his statement.
September 30, 2020 10:31 am at 10:31 am in reply to: Joe Biden seemed to be using some sort of earpiece during the debate #1905720Reb EliezerParticipantJoe Biden will not fire his best advisors like Trump who thinks that he knows everything better than anyone else. The smart person does not constantly interupt the other only the one who has an inferiority complex.
Reb EliezerParticipantThere is the danger of touching your face. I validated this with a morah horaoh and it is not like sweat that the SA forbids.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Olalos Ephraim (Klei Yokor) has a nice mashel based on the pasuk karmi shli lo nitorti, I did not protect my own vineyard which combines the sukkah and lulav. A king sends his servants overseas to tend a big vineyard. As he realizes that it takes a long time to see results, he also gives them some small vineyards to support themselves. The servants recognizing that they need teamwork to see results from the big vineyard, give up the working on it completely by caring only for the small vineyards which is only temporary whereas the big vineyard could last lifetimes with crop rotation. The big vineyard is being destroyed. The king gives out two edicts to rectify this. One, once a year, they have to leave their home and live in the big vineyard to see its destruction and two, giving them a symbol to remember the importance of teamwork.
The nimshal, the big vineyard is the next world and the little vineyard is this world. Once in the beginning of the year we are reminded the importance to work for the next world through doing mitzvas by leaving our home and entering the sukkah and we are given a symbollsm for teamwork through the lulav which is required in their performance. This also explains why we make a bracha on the lulav in the sukkah.Reb EliezerParticipantIf you remove the arava from the lulav, eventually you will need to knock it off.
Reb EliezerParticipantA prizbul was instituted for tikun olam in order that people should not avoid lending because of
shamita.Reb EliezerParticipant1, You can be ashamed of yourself. My writing this, if someone gets sick because of you, you violate the prohibitiion of לא תעמוד על דם רעך don’t be responsible for the blood of your fellow man. Even a safek pekuach nefesh is dacheh shabbos and Yom Kippur. On this it says סיג לחכמה שתיקה silence is golden. You are smarter than all doctors. You contribute to a Chilul Hashem.

Reb EliezerParticipantOn Yom Kippur we were able to use hand sanitizer to protect ourselves from geting sick.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat can of Ohev Yisroel is that who gives a voice to white nationalists?
Reb EliezerParticipantMore of the above Open Letter:
Moral degradation infects a broad swath of the American political spectrum. In the camps of both liberals and conservatives, many political players are on a hyper-partisan quest for victory at all costs.
Good character and benevolent governance are devalued, contrition is seen as weakness and humility is confused with humiliation. Many politicians and media figures revel in dividing rather than uniting the citizens of our country. Others legitimize conspiracy theories. None of this is good for America, and certainly not for us Jews.
Shameless dissembling and personal indecency acted out in public before the entire country are, in the end, no less morally corrosive than the embrace of abortion-on-demand or the normalization of same-gender relationships. The integrity and impact of what we convey to our children and students about kedusha, tzni’us, emes, kavod habriyos and middos tovos are rendered hollow when contradicted by our admiration for, or even absence of revulsion at, politicians and media figures whose words and deeds stand opposed to what we Jews are called upon to embrace and exemplify.
These are not new problems. But the challenge seems to grow worse with time. If we don’t stop to seriously consider the negative impact of our community’s unhealthy relationship with the current political style, we risk further erosion of our ability to live lives dedicated to truly Jewish ideals.
September 29, 2020 12:50 pm at 12:50 pm in reply to: Jews should be voting for Ohev Yisrael #1905394Reb EliezerParticipantFrom the Open Letter of Rav Shafran of the Aguda:
We must ensure that Israel is not used as a political weapon.
We must oppose efforts to turn support for Israel from a broad consensus into a wedge issue. Although we may rightly be concerned about trends regarding Israel in some corners, indicting an entire party as anti-Israel is not only inaccurate but has the potential of becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy. Nor should any party’s strong support for Israel become a justification to blindly support its politicians in every other matter. We should advocate for Israel’s security and other needs without painting ourselves into a partisan corner.
We should vote as Jews, not partisans.
Reb EliezerParticipantI made a shidduch together with my wife a’h, where I knew the groom and she the bride, so see if you can do the same.

A minyan should follow the proper rules of masks wearing and social distancing.
September 25, 2020 3:17 pm at 3:17 pm in reply to: NON CORONA TOPIC: Why would anyone voted Biden #1904699Reb EliezerParticipantIt is worth reading the suggested Open Letter above from Rav Shafran of the Aguda and others on his website.
September 25, 2020 3:16 pm at 3:16 pm in reply to: Is there still carona in the frum world? #1904697Reb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantIt must be kolu lo chadoshov, until thirty days is a safek whether it lives.
Reb EliezerParticipantEven pidyan haben is only at thirty days.
Reb EliezerParticipantLooked Rav Shafran’s of the Agudah and others’ Open Letter how character maters.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Maharsha is in Sanhedrin (57,2) where it says that a ben noach gets killed on uborun (fetus).
Reb EliezerParticipantI explained above that the difference between a Jew and a goy is whether we go after rov.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe mishnah in Erachin (7,1) says that we don’t wait to kill the mother until the child is born. Explains Rashi that the mother and child is one entity. The Chezkuni Shmos (21,22) says that from here we see that a child is considered a new creation at birth when it comes outside otherwise only money is paid.
Reb EliezerParticipant1, You are not 1. You speak as your president, projecting, faulting people by your own faults, כל הפוסל במומו פוסל.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe president is not a melech. He is ruled by the constitution. Hashem changes the environment to rule over.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Maharsha says that Pharao picked jewish midwives as the Jews are not responsible for abortions rather than non-jewish ones.
Reb EliezerParticipantTrump wants to eliminate our democracy. He wants to have states with republican legislatures pick electors of tbe Electoral College, who are suppose to folow the peoples’ majority will voting for his adversary to pick his adversary, should rather pick him.
Reb EliezerParticipantchalie, by goyim as explained above, killing the fetus is included in lo sirtzach.
Reb EliezerParticipant1, you don’t want a democratic government as Trunp. Democrats is with a capital letter.
Reb EliezerParticipantOtherTzad, Please capitalize the name Hashem as He is greater than Trump or Biden.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe reason is that measurements were not given to a bnei noach, so the smallest theft is like the largest.
Reb EliezerParticipantKeep Trump in mind by אתה חונן לאדם דעת as he does not listen to anyone other than himself.
Reb EliezerParticipantmotchah11, if something is allowed does not mean it should be done. Forbidden fruit is sweet. The rich will be able to do it anyway where it is allowed but the poor will endanger themselves in alleys with lack of proper hygiene.
Reb EliezerParticipantRodaf does not apply by a goy and we can say who says the mother’s blood is redder than the child.
September 23, 2020 1:25 pm at 1:25 pm in reply to: Is there still carona in the frum world? #1903913Reb EliezerParticipantMasks protect the others from Covid19 in the air.
September 23, 2020 1:16 pm at 1:16 pm in reply to: Is there still carona in the frum world? #1903909Reb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantThe Rambam says that you are allowed to abort the fetus to save the mother because it is a radof, maybe holds that there is misah bidei shomayim.
Reb EliezerParticipantI explained above the reason how can it be that by goyim life is considered before birth whereas by Jews only after birth.
Reb EliezerParticipantBy the Jews, life begins at birth, rov before that will not live, so it is not considered murder, whereas by the goyim, we don’t go after rov as tbe minority do live, so it is considered murder.
Reb EliezerParticipantI heard sixty years ago from by Rebbi on the weekly parasha sheal avicha veyagedcha, if you ask your father (and his does not know to answer) he will tell you, zekeinecha vayomru lach, ask your grandfather (my father) who will tell you.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe say in the in the Sanei Tokef that Rosh Hashanah we are written and Yom Kippur stamped, asks the Meharam Shik, how is this possible as the tsadikim and rashoim are written and stamped imeadiately and the in- between are left hung until Yom Kippur? I think it is talking about the in-between who are written in their book as a temporary scratch pad which is not stamped but moved to their respective books, life or vice versa written and stamped on Yom Kippur or Hoshanah Rabah.
September 21, 2020 6:03 pm at 6:03 pm in reply to: Dvar Torah:Haazinu–Justice for All:How To Achieve Herd Immunity In Din #1903253Reb EliezerParticipantNow we have a different pshat on the pasuk above. Can I punish you such that I don’t affect the innocent?
Reb EliezerParticipantNomesorah, you are mistaken. Biden spoke up against rioters saying, that is not protesting.
September 21, 2020 5:06 pm at 5:06 pm in reply to: Dvar Torah:Haazinu–Justice for All:How To Achieve Herd Immunity In Din #1903235Reb EliezerParticipantVery nice. I heard, Yosef said to the brothers hasachas ekokim oni, can I act like Hashem Yisborach repaying midah kaneged midah, punish according to one’s actions?
Reb EliezerParticipantNomesorah, The Chasan Sofer explains on the Hagadah, that the chacham, acts in clever manner not being called a tzadik, uses an expression eschem to exclude himself to get the rasha to reveal himself. When the rasha sees that chacham excludes himself, he presumes that he is a rasha, so he says I am also a rasha. Trump by not standing up against the white supramicist makes them think that he is also a white supramicist thereby providing strength and encouraging them.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe reason I wiil vote for Biden because Trump is dangerous who things he knows everything better than anyone else by firing all his best advisors. He destroyed the economy by letting the virus run rampant. He increased the deficit through the tax cuts which benefited only the rich. He encourages the rise of anti-semitism by supporting white supremacist.
Reb EliezerParticipantSam Klein, Trump’s father born in Germany and mother in Scotland and he is president. Why?
He was born in the US so is Kamala Haris.Reb EliezerParticipantTrump is the senile or liar who does not remember what he said before.
Reb EliezerParticipantBased on doctor, you feed a person a little and see how they react whether he says I need more. If he says no, you feed him another small amount in the specified time. If he says yes, you feed him normally.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe doctor as paskened in SA above recognizes if the person is even at a safek life and death status and I don’t see anywhere a Rav required to make the decision. Please someone point out a posek (gadol) who requires that. Chronic is a long duration illness so it needs a halachic decision whether one can fast.
