King19Member
I loved this specific gemara because of its mysterious whereabouts. (not written outright in bavli- it’s brought down by the hagaos in sanhedrin 43a). I also thought of Mathew, but in regards to others – maybe their names weren’t pronounced the way the tanaim knew them, or we killed them off before they became famous – before the goyim made them their “luminaries ” for their religion. So it can be that these were his talmidim that are unknown to us nowadays or just identified by goyim under different names. Or it could be right names but we don’t know enough of their religion ( I hope) to recognize them.
King19MemberJust met that bachur in Israel couple of weeks ago. Recognized him in the street.
King19MemberI was there today. Unbelievable. Huge chizuk
King19MemberThe gemara in sanhedrin discusses Aaron Hakohen and his decision to make the eigel. Although he saved bnei yisroel, because they had already killed Hur, and if they killed Aaron (a Kohen..) they would be deserving to be wiped out. So he decided to go with them so he doesn’t die and let them attain forgiveness for the eigel then him getting killed and getting wiped. STILL, he was held responsible for doing heshbonos and not dying Al kiddush Hashem and not doing the eigel. So too by penina, her intentions were pure and ended up doing a lot of good… but lemaaseh…not up to her to do these heshbonos and was held responsible for the hurt she caused.

King19MemberI am a son of such a “mix”. 2 of my siblings have done the same. Sefardim are majority good hearted people who keep their mesorah. Go for it.
King19MemberThink about it logically. Why marry someone who you can’t please her the way she was pleased when she was younger? Unless she has beautiful middos, where you don’t have to worry about her not being pampered.

January 19, 2014 11:12 pm at 11:12 pm in reply to: Cr Politics….Why can't we all just have Ahavat Yisroel???? #1011516King19MemberThere isn’t much to say. You are obviously 100% right. Therefore everyone on their own accord has to look at themselves for ways to improve. Not too many options to comment…emes is emes. you expected people to argue?
King19MemberLove the way you responded to walton. Idk y the moderators don’t stop people who are so openly against kollel.
You also should see Ohr Letzion chachma Umussar. Very practical down to earth and full of pure emes.
King19MemberLearning in E”Y is so important that it’s almost not shayach to come back early. If anything somehow we have to change the system that allows boys to start Beis Medrash, earlier.
King19MemberSpeak to his rav in Israel to see if he is ready. I have opposite problem. I’m younger and want to learn but my father wants me to date.
King19MemberI love how the mods add their responses to posts in bold. Like a bas Kol =D
October 26, 2013 6:40 pm at 6:40 pm in reply to: I hate dieting! Any experienced dieters here? #983364King19MemberYou have to understand that you are cheating your self. Also if you add major exercises to your schedule, it serves as an extra deterrent to blow it away, gets you more focused..etc. I personally went to the gym 4-5 times a week. When you build or shape your body, it’s harder to let it go by “cheating “. Also, another major thing is no fried foods, and nothing but water between meals
October 2, 2013 5:39 pm at 5:39 pm in reply to: Where to get cheap but good white shirts in Brooklyn #994993King19MemberCentury 21 nice shirts ranging from around $17-$25. Or you can always order online and find discounts/sales/deals
King19MemberThere is always so much going on with other people’s life that it makes you think twice about being envious of another person’s belongings.
King19MemberOops. My apologies. Um… how about setting up a exercise class like zumba or start trying out making new foods or just be on the lookout to find something that takes away from the autopilot of everyone’s everyday life. always have to make sure you cherish life by keeping it fresh and not a robotic burden
Worse comes to worse, you can start a new masechet 🙂
October 1, 2013 12:18 am at 12:18 am in reply to: How long should someone stay in Beis Medrash #976636King19MemberI would tell you forever but I see others here have mentioned that.
If you are really bent on leaving at one point then you need to establish with yourself a few things. 1) a Rebbe that you are close with that you can ask him anything. 2) the skills to able to learn by yourself and the knowledge how to navigate through learning. 3) enough emunah and yireh shamayim/spritual drive to last your life to get you past all the tumah out the there. Good Luck. Probably easier for stay in learning 🙂
King19MemberI too will be joining the shidduch world soon and all we gotta do is pray to Hashem and let him bring the one to us. After all when we are sent down by conceivement, He already decided who will be go who. Make sure to Enjoy it and bsorot Tovot.
King19MemberStart a new masechet.
September 29, 2013 7:54 am at 7:54 am in reply to: How did the Sanhedrin Know All Languages? #997528King19MemberThey were geniuses. I am not extraordinarily gifted and I have a knack for picking up languages. If it’s easier for me…. so they probably did a language a day or bathroom visit.
September 29, 2013 7:40 am at 7:40 am in reply to: Any first-hand accounts of miracles or Ruach Hakodesh by Gedolim? #1030806King19MemberThe famous story of R’ Mordecai Eliyahu and the Hida unbelievable. Lot of credible sources. Many famous Steipler stories with many witnesses on hand.
September 29, 2013 1:37 am at 1:37 am in reply to: Any first-hand accounts of miracles or Ruach Hakodesh by Gedolim? #1030800King19MemberWhen R’ Pinto saw a picture of my father, he said in detail what my father is suffering from and subsequently gave a beracha for refuah sheleimah. No other way for him to know about it
King19MemberI know many respected talmidei chachamim that say that working out is healthy for you and your body as well as other exercises. They in fact are encouraged to do especially in yeshiva because you don’t get enough exercise. However if one is doing it for the wrong reasons – i.e to impress the other gender….then it’s not good. (which is what your Rebbe may have had in mind.) otherwise enjoy it and with much hatzlacha. (I personally work out 5-6 times a week for a half hour or so, not so much during elul though) . Basically it’s a positive outlet when having proper intentions
August 16, 2013 11:45 am at 11:45 am in reply to: How do I respond to innocent questions that really hurt? #971304King19MemberBest way to remove scrutiny is through laughter and showing that you aren’t bothered by it. When they ask say you don’t know yet. After that explain that you just aren’t sure yet and are debating between a few options. Laugh and go on how you know it’s such a last minute decision but you just aren’t sure yet. Be confident and continue the conversation so as to show nothing is bothering you. It will go right over their heads. Have a list of schools and reasons in your head prepared beforehand and just smile away.
Hope I helped.
King19MemberI have to disagree vehemently against RD. Only reason why the Syria didn’t get into the professions, was bec they came straight off the boat. So they went into business, and bli ayinhara are very successful. The newer generation, are soon many talmidei chachamim , geniuses, And sincere bachurim.very wrong on u r observations RD. Don’t like the generalization of negativity against those special people
King19MemberYou can get a orange blackberry plan for full blackberry service. i use it
April 23, 2012 6:07 am at 6:07 am in reply to: "Purim And The Tyranny Of Beauty: A Plea to Mothers of Girls in Shidduchim" #869817King19MemberI’m going to completely ignore the article and address writersoul.
– you have nothing to worry about, and you should never let these thoughts let you down. You are Hashem’s daughter and he created you the perfect way he wanted you to be for you to live your life in this world. (For 120 years IYH). So, please, next time you are feeling down, lift your head up, and smile because…. You are His Princess, and He knows what’s best for you; and when time for shidduchim come, He will only get a true Prince for his Princess.
