Reb EliezerParticipant
health, government is there to provide help as a springboard to ones losing their jobs because of health or economic conditions as charity is a temporary help. Neither of them encourages to stop looking for work as mentioned above. Sometimes people need retraining as their jobs were lost forever. I took unemployment benefits but never welfare.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe goverment should support job training as the CETA program which I took advantage of.
Reb EliezerParticipanthealth, giving charity is an incentive not the work and let others give. You are as uncaring as Trump.
Why come to this world and earn your reward? In order not to get bread of shame.Reb EliezerParticipantRebbi Reb Yonasan says in Yaaros Devash that we say selach lonu avinu but mechal lonu ‘malkenu’ because if avinu, we would be a ben sorer umorei towards Hashem.
Reb EliezerParticipantHCQ must be given in the beginning and then it is questionable whether the risk of ill effect should be taken.
Reb EliezerParticipantThey asked the Klausenburger ztz’l why he dioes not find anything bad in Israel? He said I find the good and if I am busy with one mitzva, I an exempt from another mitzva.
Reb EliezerParticipantשולחן ערוך אורח חיים הלכות תפלה סימן קח סעיף ח
<ו> מי שלא התפלל בעוד שיש לו זמן להתפלל, מפני יא שסבור שעדיין ישאר לו זמן אחר שיגמור (כג) אותו עסק שהוא מתעסק בו, ובין כך ובין כך עברה לו השעה; * ט) ט’] וכן מי שהיה טרוד בצורך ממונו (כד) שלא יבא לידי הפסד, ועל ידי כך הפסיד מלהתפלל; י) וכן מי שהוא שכור ולא התפלל, כולם חשובים טז] אנוסים, ויש להם תשלומין. הגה: * <ז> מיהו לכתחלה לא יעבור זמן תפלה משום הפסד ממון (ת”ה סי’ ה’).The Magen Avraham there s’k 11 says that forgetting is an onas as the argument in Bava Kama 26,2 about the stone that he had on himself and got up forgetting it according to the Nemukei Yosef there.
Reb EliezerParticipantTosfas on 13,1 questions the accuracy of PI the ratiio between the circumderence and the diameter of a circle.
The Rambam on the mishnah 13,2 which uses the integral value of 3 based on the yam shel shlomo whose diameter was ten amos and ciircumference 30 says that since the value is not known exactly, so any value would not be correct, therefore 3 is taken as a rounded integral value. We use 22/7 or 3 1/7 to approximate it as the Ralbag there in Melachim 7,23. The GRA uses the pasuk to approximate its value by using the written וקוה and the read וקו taking the value of the written excluding the connective vov which is 111 and multuplying by the integral value of 3 for an adjustment which is 333 and dividing by the read value 106, 333/106 = 3.141509 which is correct to 3 decimal places as the value is 3.1415926. Maybe, we can improve on this value by using the conective vov and adjusting the value a little. 117 x 3 = 351 add to tbis the number of letters in the word 4 making it 355 and add a kolel of 1 to the denominator of 112 so we get 355/113 which is 3.1415929 known by the chinese a long time ago as a good approximation correct to 4 decimal places of 3.1416. The denominator has no letters added as they are not all the letters written and numerator has no kolel as it is not read.Reb EliezerParticipantakuperma,I think the opposite is true. Thw left liberals allow any religion whereas the red states are stuck on their non-jewish religion.
Reb EliezerParticipantSee the discussion at https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/publicizing-kiddush-hashem
Reb EliezerParticipantProud, be proud and give Hashem the respect He deserves to refer to Him in a capital lettter!
August 25, 2020 7:21 pm at 7:21 pm in reply to: Dvar Torah: Ki Seitzei – Compassion and Cruelty, The Dual Nature Shiluach Hakan #1895590Reb EliezerParticipantWhen it comes to kibud av voaim, could be the long life is automatic. The Rav Abarbanel in Parashas Yisro explains that your children will see you honoring your parents, so they also will honor you which will elimnate all the headaches and give you long life.
Reb EliezerParticipanthealth, isn’t what you are saying a lie? Biden was advocating at the convention specially ‘MADE IN AMERICA’.
August 25, 2020 5:10 pm at 5:10 pm in reply to: any predictions on what will be with the economy? #1895476Reb EliezerParticipantAmil, how do you read the Republican platform when there is none?
August 25, 2020 1:09 pm at 1:09 pm in reply to: Dvar Torah: Ki Seitzei – Compassion and Cruelty, The Dual Nature Shiluach Hakan #1895461Reb EliezerParticipantWhy is ki yikorei written with an aleph rather than a heh,similarly in Parashas Vaychi asher yikro eschem beacharis hayomim? The question of the Chavas Yair 67 is, if he does not want the children, can he walk away?
There are three reasons for this mitzva: 1, to show mercy, 2, to protect the species (Chinuch), and 3, the Zohar, to symbolize the mother looking for its children (calling it achzoriyos above) which symbolizes the redemptiion. Axxording to the first two eeasons we should be able to walk a1ay but not the third. Sending away the mother and leaving the children is no mercy. Also the species are protected. To show hope for the redemptiion would still apply.
The means of bringing Meshiach requires speech. The Midrash says that emunah (krias shma), hishtachvoyo, tefila and learning misnayos will bring the redemption. This might be the implicatiion here of how to bring Meshiach.Reb EliezerParticipanthealth, you want anarchy in corporations behavior, vote for Trump.
Reb EliezerParticipantCTRebbe, There is a schar for tefila bezmana and another for tefila see SA O’CH 89,1 which one gains until chatzos.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Rashba’s view iis that as we don’t make a bracha directly on krias shma, so we can say it by the zman and the brochos at davenen but the Rabbenu Aharon Halevi and the GRA say they are related and therefore krias shma must be said togerher with the brochos.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe zman of krias shma is an argument between the Magen Avraham and the GRA. First there is an argument in the length of the day. The Magen Avraham’s view is that the day starts from alos hashachar, dawn and ends at tzetz hakochovim, the coming out of the middle size stars. The GRA holds that the day starts at sunrise and ends at sunset. There is 72 min between dawn and sunrise. Also 72 min between sunset and tzetz hakochivim making the day according the Magen Avraham 12 hrs + 2 x 72 min or 12 hrs + 2 hrs + 24 min = 14 hrs and 24 min = 14.4 hrs. Divide 14.4 by 12 to find the shaos zmaniyos = 14.4/12 = 1.2. Zman of krias shma is 3 hours from alos hashachar 6 AM normal sunrise – 72 min = 6 – 1.2 = 4.8 + 3 x 1.2 = 4.8 + 3.6 = 8.4 which would be 8 + 2 x 12 min = 8 hr 24 min AM whereas according to the GRA is 6 AM + 3 hr 9 AM a difference of .6 or 36 min
Reb EliezerParticipantI heard until 9 min after shkia and as the Chasam Sofer start davening togerher wirh the shliach tzibur to be mekayem tefila betzibur.
Reb EliezerParticipantShould be above Mincha is davened from 6 and half hours of the beginning of the day not until.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe 6 1/2 hours comes from the sacrifice of the tamid which started at 12:30 PM called mincha gedaloh and sacrificed at 9 1/2 hours or 3:30 called called mincha ketana. According to the Rabenu Taam we we can daven mincha until his ben hashmoshos 58 1/2 min after the first shkiah when night starts.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Rabbenu Taams’s view is that there are two shkios, one the normal sun set and 72 min after that is another shkiah when it is nigth. 13 1/2 min before the second shkiah or 58 1/2 min after the first shkiah is ben hashmoshos. There is the Geonim’s view that 13 1/2 min from the shkiah is night. The yereim’s view is earliest mostly followed Erev Shabbos that 18 min before is ben hashmoshas. Ben Hasahmoshos is 3/4 of a mil which is an argument in its measurement. Some hold 18 min, 22.5 or 24 min. The Geonim and Rabbenu Tam go by 18 min and the Yereim by 24 min. The GRA holds 22.5 min.
Reb EliezerParticipantThey emphasize to daven with proper preparation and clean body. Krias Shma is not related to the brochos as the Rashaba, so you can say krias shma without the brochos before. Mincha is davened until 6 and a half hours from the beginning of the day 6 AM normally around 12:30 and they hold that in the half hour from chatzos to Mincha one can still daven shacharis.
Reb EliezerParticipanthealth, what you are saying requires no reply. They would have picked another black candidate for president plus many Republicans appeared in the convention and support Biden.
Reb EliezerParticipantRashi in Parashas Noach on the dor haflogah with starting words mishom hefitzom, they did not get killed like the dor hambul because there was unity. Trump strives in division whereas Biden advocates unity.
Reb EliezerParticipanthealth, the CDC recalled their ruling using HCQ even in case of emergency and with zinc as Dr. Fauci when asked said that no randomized tests have been done so we cannot rely on it.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Shlah Hakadash says that we should place judges and police on our gates, our mouths and ears scrutinizing what we say and listen to.
Reb EliezerParticipantIf you want democracy, vote for Biden and not one who hijacks the post office in order he should win and encourages the Russians to help him.
August 20, 2020 2:52 pm at 2:52 pm in reply to: Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem for the evangelicals #1894181Reb EliezerParticipantThe Republican Party is being hijacked by Trump, white supremacists and Qanon followers.
Reb EliezerParticipantsyag, if you want a dictator, vote for Trump. People get what they deserve.
Reb EliezerParticipantSyag, tell me one witness that the Senate heard?
Reb EliezerParticipantDr. Pepper, what about the Republicans who dismissed the accusations about impeachment without hearing any witnesses, what kind of kangaroo court was that? The economy will not improve without the virus improving.
August 20, 2020 12:41 pm at 12:41 pm in reply to: Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem for the evangelicals #1894145Reb EliezerParticipantN0mesora, I don’t care about Voltaire’s personal belefs but his saying which makes sense such that tbe writers of the Constitutiion with the amendments would institute about freedom of religiion.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe GRA uses this to explain the gemora in Shabbos (12,2) where Rav Yishmoel ben Elisha went by mistake and read on shabbos by bending and increasing the candle light saying how great where the words of the chachomim who said not to read at candle light. The mishna does not give the reason of bending because if one knows the reason for the prohibition, he will rationalize as King Solomon, saying, that by me it does not apply. The Baal Akedah interprets the saying, thinking of an aveira is greater than an aveira, because one will try to find reasons for permission.
August 19, 2020 4:57 pm at 4:57 pm in reply to: Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem for the evangelicals #1893923Reb EliezerParticipantproud, If he is so charitable why was his charitable foundatiion desolved?
August 19, 2020 2:43 pm at 2:43 pm in reply to: Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem for the evangelicals #1893857Reb EliezerParticipantDonald Trump, who does not care about the poor only himself.
August 19, 2020 1:53 pm at 1:53 pm in reply to: Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem for the evangelicals #1893800Reb EliezerParticipantMeno, prove me otherwise.
Reb EliezerParticipant1, What about signature matching? What about if he died after mailing the ballot?
August 19, 2020 12:52 pm at 12:52 pm in reply to: Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem for the evangelicals #1893774Reb EliezerParticipantI think that fhe constitutiion requires some religiion as Voltaire said if tbere was no G-d ch’v then we would have to create one. He recognized that the world cannot exist without G-d.
Proud, the Republicans do not care about the poor. They say, if I give you charity, you will rely on it and let someone else give. They might give for the tax deductiion.August 19, 2020 11:52 am at 11:52 am in reply to: Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem for the evangelicals #1893762Reb EliezerParticipantIf I would be you I would not be a proud republican who are only concerned for themelves and not for others as your president.
August 19, 2020 8:42 am at 8:42 am in reply to: Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem for the evangelicals #1893711Reb EliezerParticipantIt says freedom of religion not freedom from religion in the constitutiion.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat about signatures?
August 18, 2020 7:14 pm at 7:14 pm in reply to: it’s dumb to blame trump for not doing anything about covid19 #1893544Reb EliezerParticipantTrump down played the effect of the virus being afraid of the economic affect and did not show leadership to fight it, but he delegated it to the states. Rather than setting certain measurable guidelines to live up to opening the economy, he encouraged the states on their own discretiion as he is doing with the schools. This caused tbe increase of infections and cases causiing more death.
Reb EliezerParticipantProud to be a liar like Trump about the Post Office? I don’t see the slowness of the Post Office yet.
August 18, 2020 3:15 pm at 3:15 pm in reply to: it’s dumb to blame trump for not doing anything about covid19 #1893460Reb EliezerParticipantProud, be proud of your belief and don’t do anything to help yourself. יכול שהוא יושב בטל ת’ל בכל מעשך אשר תעשה indicating a person should not sit idly by but do what he can. Help yourself and Hashem will help you.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat halacha can you learn from this story?
August 18, 2020 9:11 am at 9:11 am in reply to: What if the Witnesses Don’t Want to Kill Him? #1893264Reb EliezerParticipantAs I mentined that it might apply כופין אותו שעד שאומר רוצה אני as the Rambam says by divorce.
August 17, 2020 8:16 pm at 8:16 pm in reply to: kamala harris wants to be the vp of a racist #1893185Reb EliezerParticipanthealth, What about 20,000 lies that Trump exceeded according to the WAPO? You have to search with a flashlight to find a truth.
August 17, 2020 6:01 pm at 6:01 pm in reply to: kamala harris wants to be the vp of a racist #1893140Reb EliezerParticipantKGN, Did Trump lose his pants being loose as a pathetic looser?
