דע מה שתשוב לאפיקורס, הני מילי באפיקורס עכו״ם. אפיקורס ישראל שאני דפוקר טפי.

March 27, 2026 10:29 am at 10:29 am in reply to: How Did Shimon End Up In The Aseres HaShevatim? #2530756pekakParticipantMashiach isn’t a concept. He will be a living human being. A direct descendant of Dovid Hamelech who was a direct descendant of Yehuda the son of Yaakov Avinu as clearly enumerated in the final pesukim of Megilas Rus. A person can have lots of middos in common with Yehuda but if he isn’t a direct paternal descendant he isn’t of Shevet Yehuda.
March 23, 2026 10:41 am at 10:41 am in reply to: How Did Shimon End Up In The Aseres HaShevatim? #2528179pekakParticipant@rescue The shevatim don’t represent the months. They aren’t constellations. They were actual live people. All non convert Jews are directly descended from one of the 12 sons of Yaakov Avinu.

Weiss has nothing to do with EY. Hes a litvishe boy from Flatbush who lost his mind.
March 4, 2026 9:29 pm at 9:29 pm in reply to: What I believe is the truth about the Iran war #2520064pekakParticipantIt was the UK that provided the WMD intel on Iraq. You never learned in Satmar.
pekakParticipantAI doesnt know how to distinguish between chassidish and yeshivish. Its a classic milsa davida legluyei. He was born a litvak. Lived his life as a litvak. Did what he did as a litvak. Its said that he did teshuva. AFAIK hes no longer among the living. I dont know where you were when the scandal came out but everybody knew his name, where he belonged, where he davened, and where he said a daf yomi shiur.
pekakParticipantA contract is only valid if its agreed upon by both parties. This isnt a contract. Its Robin Hood.
pekakParticipantThat *might* have been commendable if they actually wanted to support Torah. They have very different ideas about what their taxes should be funding.
January 5, 2026 7:49 am at 7:49 am in reply to: Lnaar Hazeh Hispalalti? The Dissonance of Redemption #2494717pekakParticipantYoure the one who seems to have implied that because I said that the mekor of Choshen Mishpat is the sugyos of Seder Nezikin, therefore those learning the sugya should be able to answer halachic shaalos.
Learning the sugya is the beginning. The svaros of Abaye and Rava sharpen the minds of those who learn them. Nobody will get semicha from just Tur and Shulchan Aruch.
I dont advocate cheating on taxes or claiming benefits and government programs that one isnt entitled to. I certainly hope that my rabbanim arent permitting that. I was raised by upstanding parents.
January 1, 2026 11:00 pm at 11:00 pm in reply to: Lnaar Hazeh Hispalalti? The Dissonance of Redemption #2493953pekakParticipantLearning a sugya and knowing it well doesnt give the biggest talmid chochom the authority to answer shailos. Thats what an actual Rov is for.
All these things that you talk about regarding halachos of driving and cars belong to middos. Some people have good middos without being talmidei chachomim and some talmidei chachomim may be sorely lacking in middos.
January 1, 2026 10:59 am at 10:59 am in reply to: Lnaar Hazeh Hispalalti? The Dissonance of Redemption #2493586pekakParticipantWe dont ask our Halachic questions of random talmidei chachamim. We ask them of Rabbis who have semicha. Not all musmachim have semicha in choshen mishpat. Those who do have semicha in choshen mishpat started with the sugyos of Seder nezikin.
December 30, 2025 12:53 pm at 12:53 pm in reply to: Halacha question:can you build a snowman on shabbos? #2492985pekakParticipantYou do NOT respect Rabbis. You inserted yourself into a halachic discussion with leitzanus before knowing any actual opinions. You see the Rabbis as inherently flawed which makes you an am haaretz. Thats nothing to be proud of.
December 30, 2025 12:53 pm at 12:53 pm in reply to: Lnaar Hazeh Hispalalti? The Dissonance of Redemption #2492987pekakParticipantCar damages arent more difficult than bull fighting. The basis for nezikin is the beginning of Bava Kama. The halachos are derived from the bull fighting. Sifrei SHUT are all applying bull fighting into modern day situations.
pekakParticipantYud Tes Kisleiv was celebrated by Chabad before the current Rebbes grandfather was born.
Shulchan Aruch Harav doesnt belong exclusively to Chabad. Its no less valid than the Chayei Adam (which may or may not have predated it and if yes not by much) and the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch. Shulchan Aruch Harav is mentioned in the Mishna Berurah, referred to as Shulchan Aruch HaGRaZ.
pekakParticipantApparently you dont know anything that predates zionism. Different communities had their own yomim tovim dating back centuries. If it doesnt mean anything to you, ignore it.
pekakParticipantThere is no difference between tikkun or a sandwich. Its about making a bracha.
pekakParticipantFood on a yartzeit is so people should make a Bracha leilui nishmas the tzaddik.
I dont speak for Chabad so I cant comment on your second issue.
pekakParticipantThere are jobs that you dont have to work until 5PM on Fridays during the winter. There are thousands of people working for goyim that are in Shul for mincha erev Shabbos no matter how early shkiya is. If you work for a business that wont let you out early enough maybe thats not the place you should be working.
pekakParticipant1) Nobody is forced to work until 5 on Fridays in the winter.
2) Most of us make it into Shabbos by the skin of our teeth no matter how late Shabbos starts.
pekakParticipantMaybe Hashem is telling us that our actions and our votes arent going to help any more.

Maybe the Geula will come from the deepest tzara, not because we have friendly politicians in power

pekakParticipantHave you ever learned Chovas Halevavos? Your inane comment implies that you havent!
pekakParticipantThe Yiddish language forum ivelt has a system that has been working for years.There is no shmutz because people actually follow the rules. If Yeshiva World has users that would post shmutz they need to do some self reflection.
pekakParticipant@Ex-CTLawyer
It begs the question why moderators are unpaid. In my honest opinion comments should be immediately posted with registered users having a report button that would alert moderators to possible issues that could bring penalties for both commenters and when warranted abusive reporters. Ivelt has an amazing system that has worked for years.
pekakParticipantI very rarely log in anymore. I logged in today to thank the letter writer for speaking to my pain.
pekakParticipantYour command of the English language shows that wherever it is that you learned it, it was optionary.
pekakParticipantIf youre looking for vibes look elsewhere. Its a serious Yeshiva.
I dont know why a heimishe Englisher couldnt fit into the yeshiva. Plenty of chassidishe bochurim have learned there.
pekakParticipantHow much are your vehicle expenses monthly? How much do you spend on bottled water a month? How much do you spend on non essential food and beverages a month?
pekakParticipantAnother problem with Satmar is:
They do not live in Olam HaZeh; they live in their
own little world, that excludes everyone except them.If you indeed live in Olam HaZeh as you claim you are susceptible to Olam HaZeh problems such as illness (lo aleinu). As such you or a family member can need hospitalization. You are certainly welcome to turn down the delicious home made meals.
pekakParticipantIn a Secular Marriage aka Civil Union the wife is halachically a penuya which results in non mamzeirim. When they are forced into a Halachic marriage which is an institution they dont respect its more likely to create mamzeirim.
pekakParticipantThe Divrei Chaim was never a Rosh Yeshiva. His father was already a Chossid before he got married. He believed that Chassidus was necessary for 100-150 years and then all should return to the basics.
pekakParticipantThe Divrei Chaim of Tzanz ZTL who was niftar almost 149 years ago said in his time that its more important to learn Torah (what they call nigleh in lubavitch).
pekakParticipantYou dont get to argue with the Magen Avrohom or call to abolish his words. You have every right to follow other shittos.
pekakParticipantHe was convicted for mislabeling business transactions to cover up an unnamed crime.
He wasnt convicted for r**e. That would have been a felony with jail time.
I would recommend avoiding Legacy Media.
January 4, 2025 11:11 pm at 11:11 pm in reply to: Does Saying “CE” and “BCE” Kasher the Christian Calendar? #2348829pekakParticipantWhen he was born very few people were from Toof Kif they said the last two numbers. I was born in the States as were my parents and 3 of my grandparents. I was raised that 77 is only for legal purposes. I was born in 5737.
December 8, 2024 10:33 pm at 10:33 pm in reply to: Tehilim 83: Syria (Assyria) joined anti Israel genocide #2339352pekakParticipantThe Gemara mentions both ???? and ????? as different places. One has nothing to do with the other.
pekakParticipantI have to agree!
pekakParticipantBlack is a much newer development than Belz blue.
pekakParticipantIf the mods are going to so rarely approve comments to the CR maybe its time to do away with them. A CR by definition is a place where people throw around opinions. The way it is being run now defeats the sentiment. Maybe let people shmooze and if it gets out of hand then the mods can make some sense of order.
November 13, 2024 2:10 pm at 2:10 pm in reply to: One more cheeseburger, and we have J.D.Vance as president #2332368pekakParticipantPeople donate sifrei Torah to a shul because they want their loved ones to be remembered in that specific shul. Sometimes they actually remain the property of the donor and theyre kept there for use at certain occasions and when the donor moves away they take it with them. Nobody has a right to just transfer a sefer Torah.
pekakParticipant??? ????? ?????? ????? ??? ????? ?????? ??? ?????? ??? ?????? ???? ????? ???? ?????
October 7, 2024 11:35 am at 11:35 am in reply to: Trump Good for Jews? Consider these worrying trends #2322169pekakParticipantAll of the imported stuff used to be manafactured locally and people had jobs. All the people who make their living from the imported goods industry can manufacture domestically.
October 6, 2024 2:31 pm at 2:31 pm in reply to: Trump Good for Jews? Consider these worrying trends #2321712pekakParticipantTariffs ensure that manafacturing comes back to the States and it creates American jobs.
September 26, 2024 12:20 pm at 12:20 pm in reply to: Ozempic: The New Grift in Heimish Health #2318931pekakParticipantI agree. Lets ban chemotherapy. Beat cancer with willpower.
September 25, 2024 11:29 am at 11:29 am in reply to: Ozempic: The New Grift in Heimish Health #2318536pekakParticipant@ 1
Im so happy for you that your life is so simple. You probably tell people that antidepressants are unnecessary and they should just get over it. If its not your struggle MYOB.
pekakParticipantThe law is that if you are in an accident you get a police report and send all the information to the insurance company. Im not talking about kissing a bumper. When I owned a car I paid for full coverage . When I rent I pay for full coverage. Not because I lack confidence in my own driving ability, but because I dont trust you. Seichel says to let the insurance companies work out the details. Auto body shops wont wait for a BD to decide things.
pekakParticipant@anonymous Jew
I agree with you 100%. We are required by law in every State to have insurance. The insurance companies (at least in my view) are our arbitrators that by purchasing insurance we accept that they will take care of things for us.
