It says to do teshuva every end of the day, every end of the week, every end of the month or the end the year. The Dubner Magid sees it where you pay as you borrow or an installment plan making it easy to pay off the debt but if we accumulate our debt and pay off at one time by waiting to the last minute, it is not so easy to pay it off.
The Shuls don’t want to make a distinction, either everyone wears a mask or no one.
In our Shul in Staten Island it is forbidden to daven without a mask and social distancing is required. According to the Woodward tapes, Trump could have saved thousands by being honest early in February about the coronavirus and not down playing it for his fear of panic.
The pasuk above according to the Rabbenu Bachayeh describes the three ways of doing mitzvos, speech, thought and deed. Everything should turn towards the center, machshava, thought, otherwise we have a body without a soul.
I once heard that yirah is 1 and chochmah is 0. If you place a 1 before a 0, you can end up with a big number by recognizing the chochmah also, but 01 only recognizes the yirah but not the chochmah.
Therefore we should do teshuva in Elul. As the implication by the Rav Avudraham in Uvo letziyon goel ulshovei fesha leyaakov if we want the redemption, we should do teshuva. go’el ul’shovei makes Elul.
Elul is the time for teshuva and geulah.I have a Maytag washer and a Whirlpool dryer and they work ok ka’h.
We say in Neilah, you stretch your hand to the wicked. We can look at this where someone is sinking in quicksand and Hashem kavayochal stretches out his hand, telling him to hold on to His hand to be pulled out. The shudders of a store are on the verge of being closed and a person rushes, saying, don’t close it as I want to still buy something.
There is an argument between the Rambam and the Ramban if teshuva is a mitzva. The Rambam’s view that viduy is the mitzva. He holds that his circumstances will happen to lead him to teshuva. You can’t tell a person to do teshuva when he does not realize that he is doing something wrong, as a person does not see his own faults, whereas the Ramban holds that maybe, his circumstances whether richness or poverty should lead him to doing teshuva.The Ben Ish Chai explains the accusatory angels by the passage Yomru hamoshlim bou cheshban, make an accounting of our deeds. What connection does it have to the city of Cheshban? The question is, how can we conquer Sichan when Maov was part of it? Once Sichan conquered Maov, Maov was absorbed in it and became null, a new nation. Similarly, when we do teshuva, we get transformed to a new person and the accusations don’t apply to us.
abukspan, I think you misunderstood the whole post because I misposted it. It says vahevel hevi gam ‘hu’ explains the Alshich Hakash that he sacrificed himself together with tbe korban similarly Adam Harishan sacrificed himself with the korban as the Ramban explains in Parashas Vayekro tbe purpose of a korban.
Excuse the typos above authorities and Republicans.
You know a PaperBridge falls apart as your arguments. All medical athorities recommend wearing a mask in order to protect others from being infected. It is not for yourself but it is for others. If you have the virus, you spreaded around in a crowded place. The Relublicans only care for themselves, so no mask is required.
People don’t do abortions for the fun it. It is not something being enjoyed. Rape should be prosecuted more and being educated of the consequences of having relationships at a young age without the proper protection.
I wrote on another topic that there is a mitzva wearing a mask being mekayem love your fellow man like yourself by protecting others from infections.
besalel, Why does Israel prefer this when the control was lifted?
The Alshich Hakadosh uses the a similar mashel to expain why the Jews violated the greatest aveiros but they did not get punished until they left the learning of the Torah behind.
There was a violinist who offended the king and others but the king protected him because of his music. Once someone got so upset that he cut his hand off. Since the violinist could not entertain the king anymore, the king threw the book at him for all his previous offenses. As long as tbey learned Torah, the Torah protected them, but once they stopped learning, they were punished on everything they did. This is like Rav Itzele’s mashel above.It says adam ki yakriv mikem karbon where it should have said, ki yakriv odom mikem karben this refers tbe adam harishan who sacrifice himself as a karbon on Rash Hashanah when he was created where bereshis makes aleph b’tishri being kaf heh elul the first day of creation.
People don’t realize that every time they wear a mask they perform a mitzva of loving your fellow man like yourself by protecting others from being infected.
People can get heart palpitations from it.
health, Have you done tbe proper randomized effective and safe test with HCQ + Zinc? You can only administer it in the beginning of the illness and then it might be dangerous and he can get cured without it.
I found an article entitled, Was Obama’s 1.7 billion cash deal with Iran prohibited by US law?, dated March 1, 2018 from The Journal Gazette (Glenn Kessler, Washington Post) which says that Stephen Flatow received 26 million and they established a scholarship. see journalgazette dot net
TLIK, Trump created a bad impression showing that a mask is not important.
For Jews, abortion is not killing as the Torah requires to pay money because according to the Rav Chezkuni there in Mishpotim (21,22) who says that life begins at birth. It is done as a last resort.
Obama Didn’t Give Iran ‘150 Billion in Cash’ money was from an old arms deal, See factcheck dot org
proud, look up in Biur Halacha O’CH 554 about the Cholara epidemic to stay inside but when need to go out, wear a mask.
It is ironic, yesterday Trump defended himself for attacking the military by attaking tbe military saying tbat the generals want wars to support the bomb and other amunition creation companies.
The money belonged to Iran, returning their own money frozen by sanctions, see politifact.
Didn’t Trump denegrade McCain saying that he was no hero because he was captured? The son wanted but never joined tbe military as the father would disown him?
Trump told a reporter to take off his mask when asking a questiion at a news conference.
Ben Levi, it says that לעולם יתפלל אדם שלא יחלה a person should pray not to get sick because once he gets sick he needs peraklitim gedolim, great zechusim, to get cured. Therefore, Hashem creates the refuah before the makah, before the zechusim are required.
Syag, I don’t know wbat you are talking about? Don’t you have to do your part by voting?
Remember the Rambam’s golden path, the middle way and the Ramban in Parashas Kedoshim not be nivul birshus Hatorah. There is an argument between Rashi and Tosfas how to place the mezuzah, whether to place it horizantily or vertically. We compromise by placing it slented which is important for the husband and wife to keep in mind when entering and exiting their house.
Biden said that because he felt that the policies he advocates are beneficial for the blacks.
What is the toiv?
Republicans Colin Powel, John Kasick and George W. Bush don’t support Trump because they see through him. Why don’t they support him? They see that he is only out for himself.
They don’t support him because he condones abortions and same gender marriage overlooking all Trump’s bad behavior.
The sec of Hud, a white in black clothing, who became sec because of Trump’s great advocacy in 2016, does not support his own kind and condones Trump’s over 20,000 lies.
The president is a lie who has no empathy to anyone else outside of himself and his primary family.
When a baby is killed, the Torah penalizes with money because according to the Rav Chezkuni there life only starts at birth.
health, By condoning murder by police, he created riots. Democrats provide more Sholom than Trump. The fact that you think you know more shows you know less as the Torah resides with the humble. Fauci when listened to would have provided more protection from the virus than anyone else.
heakth, Trump is empowering the riots. Abortiion is not murder for Jews and peoole do it as a last resort . Don’t tell me what the din is because I don’t think you know. He contributed to the death of 190,000 people by not planing early enough and opening up to soon. He fires his best advisors because he thinks he knows everything better than them which is a dangerous. He does not know what reality is over conspiracies like Qanon.
147, if what you are saying is correct than how can the chachomim take away the mitzva of shofar?
Syag, I applaud you but not everyone is able to do that as the president is looked at as a model of behavior. Clinton’s behavior was private which was publicized whereas your president flaunts his bad behavior.
health, Ahavas Chased Michah (6,8) which unites, but not Trump, is the most important. Rashi says on Mishom Hefitzom in Parashas Noach that the Dor Haflaga even worshipping a’z were not killed because there was unity among them. We abhor toava behavior but advocate caring for each other.
The Alshich Hakadash has a very interesting interpretation. If Lavan would not have fooled Yaakov then he would have married Rachel first and Yoseph would have been the first born deserving the kesonas pasim and no jelousy would have occured, so they would have never ended up in mitzraim,
so Lavan’s actions contributed to go down to mitzraim.
The Chasan Sofer interprets it that the yetzer hara wants to destroy the feeling that Hashem is our merciful father. Could be that by being redeemed, even though not worthy of it, taught the Bnei Yisroel that Hashem cares for them like a father.
