Ask Alexa or google why they’re red
? Were all the other comments deleted? How can there be 139 comments and none for f them shown?
Wow!
Gevaldig question!
This was what I heard from college students that go to YU so I’m assuming it was
Anyone know why YU didn’t give off for the levaya?
“In the selichos ‘ישראל נושע בה is mentioned the above passage which refers to the sair, goat, Eisov“
You know more than me so I’m not arguing just asking but isn’t עשו called שעיר because of his marriage into them and that he got הר שעיר (and also because he was hairy)?
eBay?
Welcome back!
Tvop,
I heard about it on the news also this morning before Ywn put it out (it seems like Ywn is the slow one)
“would he have made this comment about some none frum eating a pork sandwich on YK?“
If it was in the news
Probably
Commonsaychel,
I don’t think Gadolhadorah was glorifying it I thought it was being made fun of
He probably thought he doesn’t need to keep Yom Kippur if he leaves before then because תורה לא בשמים היא
Aaq,
Or even better (during the week) look and see which arm the tefillin are on
How did he register 7 hours ago but comment 11 hours ago?
Reb eliezer
So someone that wears a see through cover is no different than uncovered, correct?
Ooo ooo ooo ME!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE COFFEE!
Any and every!
The problem is that hair is considered ערוה and if you can see the hair even though it’s “covered” it’s a problem
It’s like wearing a sheer article of clothing where that place is something that’s supposed to be covered
“I think Biden’s people who have mostly experience in the “Beltway” do not think of the real world.“
Of course, and the Georgia voting law proves it
“Who are the ones that are attacking Biden for pulling our troops out? Who is calling America weak and emboldening terrorists?
The same ones who if Trump had gotten it done would be lavishing praise on him.“
Why do you think trump would do the same exact thing as Biden?
It’s like saying if Biden was president when Obama was he would have killed bin Ladin
But obviously he wouldn’t have because he was there and said don’t kill him
Even Obama was upset at the way Biden handled things
Providence Rhode Island (there’s already a Yeshiva there)
Gadolhadorah,
Ann coulter is not a fan of trump
That’s like bringing out mitt Romney
“Not to worry, the right wing MAGA’s with the support of the Trillion dollar Military Industrial complex will find another war to send other people’s kids into so that they can repair their self-image of how “tough” America is and be proud of how “everyone fears us”.“
Right jackk
That’s why there was no new wars under trump
But keep on thinking that right wingers are war mongerers
Jackk,
Are you saying that since trump said a month before his second term he was going to leave but then post the election he wouldn’t bring them home?
I highly doubt it
“coffee addict, you can’t follow both views, so one will be rejected. Sometimes you listen to one and sometimes to another. You must show willingness to listen and respect their views. When you always follow your own instincts, people around you realize that their good advice is not required and is ignored.”
Do you work in the White House to say that trump didn’t listen to anybody that said against HR McMaster
Additionally your comment was on the people that trump didn’t listen to resigned, so Biden didn’t listen to people that told him to stay but they didn’t resign
You don’t see the correlation?
Reb eliezer,
Why aren’t the people that told Biden to stay in, or don’t close the airport resigning?
👋 feivel!
Long time no see!
How have you been?
“14. See above, 1 and 4. Is the lack of Tznius dress in the MO world a problem? Yes. But, As stated above in no. 1, that is not anyone’s fault. People are not interested in being told that what they’re doing is wrong across the board, not just in the MO world.“
I like most of your points but this I take issue with
Lace top sheitels (should be a whole new thread IMO) has started to be shown to be אסור and thankfully I have seen people on community groups start to sell them (I’m assuming because they realize they can’t wear it anymore
“That’s not the point. What I meant was that you cannot blame people for that which they don’t know, hence that even if they are mistaken, it does give anyone the right to disown them, especially an entire community.“
But it is the point
“coffee addict: I don’t think the Rabbonim are scared they’ll lose their job – it’s more about a proper pace. Push something too hard all at once and it will break. You need to go slowly, one step at a time, so people don’t feel overwhelmed.“
I’ll address you too damoshe,
I’m not saying to push I’m saying to teach what’s right and wrong (and especially lead by example isn’t pushing)
It brings to mind a vort I thought of for פרשת שופטים
In Parshas Shoftim we talk about someone that killed someone else on purpose but runs away to an עיר מקלט the Torah says you should kill the murderer (Rashi says don’t say one person died why should we kill another person)
But the Gemara says if a בית דין killed one person in 70 years it’s considered “a בית דין של רוצחים” why? If the Torah says they should kill him why are they murderers?
The answer I was thinking of is that בית דין’s job isn’t just to judge cases but also to teach people not to do עבירות, and if a person does an עבירה they failed in their job
The same holds true over here, a rabbi’s job isn’t just to give sermons and perform weddings but to teach their congregation what’s right and what’s wrong
Rebdovid,
Since you replied I’ll answer one of your defenses
“ Most of the issues in the MO community are the cause of ignorance, not malignant violations of Halacha; think of it as a Tinok SheNishba situation of sorts (Chas VeShalom, I am NOT calling the MO community Tinokos SheNishbeu).”
So it’s the job of the rabbanim to teach them and call them out if something is wrong
Are they scared they’ll lose their job?
“Could be that it’s a troll post, or it could be that he was not expecting the excoriation“
Someone that makes an account and the first thing he does is start a confrontational thread thread is usually a troll
Thank you avram and syag
He hasn’t even posted anything else yet in defense
Avira,
What I’ve learned is try to fix myself before I rail on communities that I find at fault
Do the mods really feel that this thread should stay open?
I’m not liking this thread it smells of division right before Rosh Hashanah
“FYI, Rav Soloveichik established a mixed-gender school in Boston.”
And FYI that school is going down the drain (if it didn’t go down already) because either the parents and kids are becoming frummer or going off the derech totally
What does ה אחד mean?
I understood it to mean that Hashem is everywhere which I think means that we are in ה and not separate from Him
Both of them should have a רפואה שלימה and we shouldn’t hear any more צרות
Why is it any different than ואהבת לרעך כמוך and even more that אשתו כגופו!
Wow huju,
And it’s Elul!
Don’t worry you don’t have to ask for mechilah….
I know someone that did
For once I agree with you jackk
And כתיבה וחתימה טובה
I got this message from someone
🇦🇫✡️ — NEWS: Zebulun SimanTov, the last remaining Jew in Afghanistan decided he is staying in the now Taliban controled country and won’t be moving to Israel or the United States:
“I will not leave my home. If I had left, there would have been no one to maintain the Synagogue. I had the opportunity to leave to the US, SimonTov said in an interview.
Jackk
“Nobody cares what Trump thinks or diyukim in his narishkeit.“
Yet you say
“ He can declare himself king and he will have millions of supporters agreeing.”
So I guess his supporters care
“Biden is doing a great job and exactly what he was elected to do. Most of America loves him and supports him.“
There was a poll that asked if you think Biden did a good job in Afghanistan and 69% said no
And foreign policy is his “strong point”
Yeah right
I think לע״ד that if you both want to grow together in רוחניות then that’s your bashert
“Me – You can’t Resign from a position that you weren’t elected to!“
So Jen Psaki can’t resign because she wasn’t elected to being press secretary?
And if you really believe it to be true, then Trump disagrees with you (or is saying Biden was elected to the position)
I wonder, if Trump won, Bibi would still be prime minister
And I wouldn’t be worried about either
“Phil, I don’t agree. When other peoole are involved, veavto lereacha comes into play and maybe your personal rights have to be put aside.“
Reb eliezer,
the anti-vaxxers hold the vaccine kills people and doesn’t save lives so they say you’re not doing ואהבת לרעך כמוך and they are
Always,
You’re missing my point (in your second part) or maybe because I missed your original point)
The hygiene thing was about masks or about shots?
Aaq,
I don’t think people should be forced to be mensches
And yet again the vulnerable people should protect themselves they should wear double masks
Another idea, if you are going to mask mandate then make the masks free (subsidized) because according to you it’s government’s job to protect people so the government should provide it
“It seems that problems with vaccines are typically found quickly. That is, there might be short-term side effect after vaccine uptake, but not long-term. It seems to make sense in terms of how immunity reacts to a threat. If there are long-term vaccine cases, please point me to them.“
Aaq
And the reason that’s so is because fda approval wasn’t rushed
