Yes, a goy is permitted to enter and enjoy a sukkah and sometimes it’s encouraged.
So, besides the fish brain which is delicious, what part of the head do you actually eat?
Put some Ritalin into the kid’s gefilte fish.
Well, there is no doubt that her hair is covered in the grave.
“if you can only touch it with a spacesuit -this isn’t called touching.”
However, loads of moon rock were brought back for public viewing and touching.
Another burial policy question is whether the women covered her hair; not did she speak loshon harah or did she give tzedakah,etc.
“Why are pple voting for Obama”
For the same reason that people jump off bridges.
It must be a new chumra because our Avos are buried next to their wives.
L’halacha, you only need a seperation for davening and mingling. To the others: how do you sit on a bus or at a chupa without a m’chitza?
Concerning the things not to keep in your wallet; you left out the most important of all- your money…too risky.
“However, there are many families with the two brand new cars leased in their driveway along with the yearly vacations who cry no money to the tuition board.”
Are you referring to yeshiva parents or yeshiva administrators?
“the only thing that annoys me is the fact that you think everthing was done for you.”
Bishvilee nivra haolam.
The frum Jewish community owes a huge hakaras hatov to ShopRite for servicing us with a vast amount of products with kosher hashgacha including fish, meats, poultry and even sushi. When treif turkeys are put on special during the season, ShopRite will offer kosher turkeys at large discounts; and many more examples.
Even though ShopRite cares about your business; it is still incumbent for us to be appreciative.
And don’t forget to pick up your free Jewish calendar for the New Year at ShopRite.
This is a hard act to follow.
“The chofetz chaim quotes the baal hatanya”
The baal hatanya did most of his learning prior to studying with the mizriche magid.
“Kids go OTD because of bad parenting.”
Hmm, did our Avos, Avrohom and Yitchok have split personalities; bad parenting for Yishmael and Eisav and good parenting for Yitzchok and Yaakov? I think not.
Start the count after all soap and shampoo are rinsed off the body. It’s rosho v’rubo for at least three minutes and you can easily get the bottom of your feet wet from the shower spray.
Why be miserable by yourself; share it.
“I feel that people who use the mikvah have an obligation to others to be disease-free so as not to transmit any possible transmissible diseases & infections to others who use the mikvah.”
Take a long shower instead, it’s the same as a mikve for a male.
“But there are situations that might warrant or necessitate it.”
You mean like when Yaakov kissed Rochel upon meeting her for the first time?
Sam2 – with pleasure:
Concerning Rav Moshe’s shita on shaking hands with the opposite gender, there are obviously exceptions; read the following excerpt from a personal direct experience with Rav Moshe Feinstein ZT”L:
[unobservant] like me has a yeshiva bochur [student]
Rav Moshe finally looked at me. I was mortified. My aunt was addressing him irreverently. She was joking with him. She had called me Ikey, not Yitzchok, or even Isaac.
[religious]
Soak daily in vinegar
Imber was a boorish drunk, hardly the role model for Yidden anywhere.
Tznius “too far” is not Tznius at all, as it draws attention to the women who has gone “too far” and whose message is: Hey everyone, look at me; see how beautifully frum I am (and you’re not)!
Chofshi= Chofshi Min Ha’mitzvos.
“cherrybim: A wife is not THAT dangerous!!!”
ZeesKite, you haven’t met my wife; I tzitter.
Believe me, Ashe was a downer; I was there.
Crises related asifa’s are downers; Klall Yisroel needs simcha gatherings.
“No. A man’s Limud Torah comes before his household duties.”
Wrong again. It’a a bafeireshe posuk: V’nishmartem M’od L’nafshoseichem”
And why did were the suites at Aghudah Siyum Hashas (sold for many $thousands each) permitted to have male and female participants; not related family members in most cases? These suites generally had catering by super glatt hashgachos. If Agudah talks the talk; it should also walk the walk.
Having said that, the event was the most thrilling experience for me; as if everyone there was your best friend and sharing a mutual simcha. We need to have stadium achdus generating events at least every other year; and we need to think of a “simchasdik” draw which would attract all streams of frum yidden.
“A woman is obligated to fulfill her household duties before so-called “learning” “
A man is also obligated to fulfill his household duties before so-called “learning”.
“Maybe the third party is Jewish too.”
The third party is not Jewish. The question is: will the airline consider the circumstances and allow a cancellation with a refund of the ticket payment, or without a penalty?
“Which Yeshiva did you go to?! I mean, it’s good to know the pledge and the anthem as common knowledge, but to recite it daily???”
It was a Lubavitch school.
The g’dolim of the past did it and the g’dolim in England still do it. In addition, they toast the Queen at every simcha. As a youngster, my yeshiva taught us the national anthem and we recited the Pledge of Allegiance, daily.
It was assur to take advantage of a Jewish company’s mistake; especially where they stand to lose many millions of dollars.
“No such thing is well known among Rav Moshe’s talmidim”
Wrong.
“Unless she has a letter or this is publicly known”
It is publically known.
“I would assume that Cheerybim is mistaken.”
This was a direct halacha l’maise shaila to Rav Moshe from a mageddes of g’mara shiur in Brooklyn due to complaints of the husband of an attendee.
Rav Moshe permitted women learning g’morah and having women giving a g’mora shiur to other women. He stated that it was not permitted, however, when it’s apparent that the women are doing it for feminist purposes.
So you ride in the back of the bus.
“That wouldn’t be treating them like 2nd class citizens. Aderaba, this would be better for them since they can be more separated.”
Women, do you agree; or do you feel that putting you in a differant stadium which is away from the action is like compelling you to ride in the back of the bus?
And why a whole nother stadium next door to MetLife stadium? We can rent a hall for you in Williamsburg which would be far better for you since you would be even more seperated. There is just no shiur to seperation; the further away, the better for you.
“they could have rented out a whole nother stadium and put women there.”
Why bother? I was in Arthur Ashe for the Asifa with the other losers and should have stayed home and had it streamed in.
So here is another example of treating our women like second class citizens. You would have women who purchased tickets months ago kicked out in order to make room for the procrastinators who just woke up.
And who again is underwriting the cost of renting another stadium for several hundred or even thousand people who still need seats?
What’s all the excitement about?
Be thankful that Peres didn’t say it was millions of years ago, like the real kofrim claim, instead of “about 10,000 years ago”; maybe that’s what he learned in Yeshiva.
Let’s not blow this one.
He has no credentials, speaks only for himself, and is a nutcase.
The only time that it is permissible to take the exchanged clothing is when someone took your clothing at the mikva and left his; because of kavod habrios.
“The shul would provide a nearby trashbin if they felt it was a problem to temporarily place it on the table.”
You can’t make that assumption, especially when there is an issur g’zeila involved and it takes about 5 seconds to ask r’shus, unless of course you’re afraid of the answer. Bottom line, however, it’s disgusting and insensitive to the normal people around you and the shulchan aruch states that one is not permitted to davin in front of an object that is mius.
In my opinion, it is assur b’issur g’zeila if you are going to use shul tissues, or even your own tissues, and leave them on the tables unless you first ask r’shus of the Rav and gaboyim.
mewho – “i did not see female performers at the concert.”
Oh, so how did you like the female dancers at the parade?
“remarkable how well people can get along.”
So did I see you at the Asifah?
