    ‘Rabbi’of Berlin, SAYS;

    this whole story is a fairy tale and , regardless whether a rebbetzin told the tale or that she mentioned Rav Kanievsky’s name (who did not comment upon the lenght of the coma,btw), it is a story for the gullible. Hakodush boruch hu does not make miracles to please “nam

    YOU dont know that for a fact and ADAMANTLY claiming that its a fairlytale is CERTAINLY not your right to say, MR. Berlin! The interesting point here as that the other posters are just challenging THIS part of the story, yet YOU deny the whole thing WITHOUT even giving credit to the fact that lack of JEALOUSY saved this girl from deteriorating (as Rav Chaim pointed out) YOU ARE A KOIFER, my friend!

    Musings,

    THNIK BIG hit the target. The point of the story was not impressive to anyone here who had a problem with the length of the coma(sadly). Instead of being in awe about the basic facts, you constantly harp on, the side issue.

    Jent,,,

    Very well said!

    Cantoresque,

    Have you ever attended an evening where a famous speaker adressed the public?

    MOST of the time you will not hear him telling a story while including the ‘name, rank and seriel number’ of the subjects involved. That doesnt mean the story aint true!

    Furthermore, if Rebetzin Miller mentioned that name of Hagoan Rav Chaim KANIEVSKY IN CONNECTION TO THIS STORY, you can be sure it happened. But then again, ‘ONCE a NON BELIEVER, Always a NON BELIEVER’!

    Now are you…..

    So ‘Kol Kevudah……’ DOESNT apply in the figurative sense at all,,??? A woman’s middos are not relevant to this AT ALL? It ONLY means that a woman should not spend too much time outdoors????

    Verify that please…..

    Please do a ‘simple internet search’ on how long a corpse can remain buried before it deteriorates. I doubt you will be able to establish that the RIGHTEOUS dont decompose . However thats what WE believe.

    I dont think you have a problem with THIS particular story. Had the coma lasted 35 years and HAD been recorded, you would have doubted that the body remained in tact because a ‘simple google search ‘ wouldnt have confirmed it.

    How Pathetic!

    It says ‘Vohavto is HaGer’ 6 times!

    Its also a fact that for 10 generation, ITS FORBIDDEN TO remind someone that he was once a Gentile.

    On the other hand, apparantly when one decides to convert, its an obligation to PURSUADE HIM NOT TO. Can someone please elaborate on the contradictions?

    Matisyahu says;

    ‘when a person comes up to bais din shel mayla, all the excuses fade. this is one of them – no one ever died of dressing modest, and women have no reason to be outside all day anyway; kol kevudah bas melech penima……

    TOTAL RUBBISH! Its a fact that the only three people who will not be exscused are:

    1.Someone who was oiver on ‘Hamalbin Pnei Chaveiro Birabim

    2.One who used a nickname while referring to a fellow Jew

    I dont remember the third one , but the point is that with every other transgression, one will be able to compromise and negotiate his Din Vichesbon in exchange for Mitzvohs that he did!

    I heard this at a shiur once given by Rav Avraham Twersky I think it was.

    The Big one,

    Maybe I overreacted but can you please bring a Mikor ? I dont think ‘Kol Kevudah Bas Melech Penima’refers to the literal aspect. I think it can also apply to a woman’s midos vs. the outside…if I am not mistaken

    ACTUALLY, I know recall she said the story happened somewhere in Austria.

    Musings says:

    ‘I’m not denying that God has the power to make it happen,,,,,,,

    How admirable of you! But now that we both agree that G-d rules the world, he obviously didnt want this story to be publicized in the Guinness Book of records, and frankly, thats why you havent heard of it!

    Big One,

    That can very well be! I’m sure you are better informed in these details than I am.

    However, I can proudly say that after my time, when I will be questioned on this issue, I will certainly feel very comfortable excusing myself with regard to this particular ‘transgression’ !

    Cantoresque says;

    I don’t believe the story and want to see proof.

    Nothing personal, but I’ve read a lot of your comments and sad to say, there are alot of things ‘you dont believe’ and I’m sorry for you.

    But for the record, I heard this story at a shiur recently given by a Rebetzin who happens to be the granddaughter of Reb YY Herman, the subject of the book ‘All for the Boss’,,,,,

    Matisyohu28, are you sure its not MATISYAHU82AND GETTING SENILE,,,?????

    Reread my post! I never implied that other Mitzvos are unimportant Chas Visholom, all I am saying is that when it comes to tznius where women are concerned, men tend to forget ‘LEFUM TZAARAH AGRA! The harder the mitzvah, the bigger the schar,,,So dont take us for granted please,

    Oh and you say:

    and women have no reason to be outside all day anyway,,,,,

    For the record, I am out a lot, driving people to hospitals, visiting old age homes and

    Joseph,

    I wrote a post in response to your question and for some reason it didnt make it to the board,,,,,,

    But on the subject of ‘questioning Rabonim’, are you aware that many Gedolim prohibit the use of the internet?? (due to tznius issues, which YOU CLEARLY want to improve,whichis obvious in all your comments on thissite)

    Atleast ‘I’ am only seeking answers, YOU are too ‘holy’ to question them, yet in this case, TOTALLY contradicitng them,,,,,

    Can you please elaborate on your double standard here?

    Besides, the only reason these Takonos were made was becasue the Chinuch is apprantly distorted. My point was, that if everyone were taught to be happy with their lot , these restrictions would not be neccessary!

    Teenof13,

    She was 17 when the accident happend but since the day she was 12, she was never jealous of anyone.

    Joseph,

    Apparantly its brought down somewhere that one must give Kovod to a Rich man!

    Thats exactly what the Gedolim DO, whether they adhere to the takonos or not. Rabonim WILL attend a wedding and keep a kesher with those even if they dont always stickto these rules, so I think my question is quite valid!

    When was the last time you heard a RAV say he will not be misader kiddushin at a wedding unless he is assured by the baal simcha that everything will be within the bounderies of the takanos???

    LGBG,

    I see your quite new to YW. I remember joing this site about over a year ago and it was simply unbearable. The insults and attacks were totally out of control.

    What you read now is ‘gold’ compared to then. Lets just give everyone a ‘yoshar Koach’ for

    improvement and lets hope it will continue to remain civil.

    The Littigant DID tell the Rabonim that they were conteplating taking their parents. Apparantly they encouraged him to pursue it unless the parents refused to go which was the case.

    As far as i know, the story I wrote about, I am almost 95 per cent sure that THIS WAS NO MISTAKE, frm whats being talked about, the parents were fully aware that they were deceiving

    Jent,

    No one said tznius should be disregarded, dotn drei a kop! I just think the logic goes both ways. A man should busy himself on HIS side of the mechitzah and nothing will lead to hirhur!

    Furthermore, if women would start dressing like Reb Arele’s Chassidim, imagine how many fo their husbands would start having roving eyes Chas Visholom.

    Vchai bohem means you should ‘live with the mitzvos your doing and try to make it as pleasurable as possible.

    You say:.those men who wear short pants usually their wives wear pants ,also shott ones and sleeveless so whats your …..

    RIDICULOUS!!!!

    ATTENTION MY FELLOW B’NEI TORAH,

    As a woman reading these letters and skimming through these comments , I cant resist but speak in our defense;

    YES, tznius is very importand and it is the crown and glory of every Jew. However, did any of you men realize what a nisoyon this is for us? Do you know what it means to walk the streets in 90 degrees following the basic tzinius code, smeltering away in a sheitel(even if its a nice one), long sleeves etc? Stop hacking abnout the styles for heaven’s sakes.

    The Torah says ‘Vchai Bohem’ we dont have to make our lives more difficult. Ofcourse a man cant fathom what its all about because they can comfortabley roll up their sleeves, walking around in short pants during vacation time is not the end of the world and their is no complete head covering which can give you terrible migraines in the heat.

    Mi keamcho BNOS YISROEL??

    Furthermore, what right do men have to inspect other women to the point where they realize there is a tznius problem?? Focus your attention on where its proper for you and try to understand that MOST FRUM WOMEN TRY THEIR BEST!!

    As important as Tznius is, it is NOT one of the three Amudim, thousands of women dressed in the most modest manner didnt stop the Bais Hamikdosh from burning!!!

    Why are people not critical about the lack of Ahavas Chinom? We are in the three weeks now, please lets concentrate on basic derech eretz.

    There was an incident recently at a shtiebel which really shocked me.

    A little boy ran out in the yard to play during ‘laining’ on Shabbos. Meanwhile , an elderly man noticed his seat was free and went to sit down. When the child came back and noticed that his seat was taken, he told the man that he was sitting in HIS seat. A minute later, the father of this little boy passed by and said’ Yes, reb yid, this is my boy’s seat, please find somewhere else to sit’

    In my humble opinion, the lack of chinuch is a MAJOR issue people dont pay enough attention to. Lets put our priorities in order…

    Oomis,

    Your story is much appreciated.But I fail to see how its related to mine.

    The point I wanted to make was that PERFECT is not always PERFECT.

    I would love to inspire all the young people out there who might feel insecure because of any specific drawbacks they might have. There is someone out there for everyone , if only people would realize that 2 families with faults can be as compatable and as happy as those who perceive themselves as perfect!
