Reb EliezerParticipant
The Rash uses the pasuk לא המתים יהללו י-ה to allude to the dead dry arba minim being pasul to use. By chametz we find שלך אי אתה רואה אבל אתה רואה של אחרים ושל גבוה people don’t see there own sins but see the sins of others and certainly the sins of the holy. אין אדם רואה את נגעי עצמו a person doesn’t see his own faults.
( וכל הפוסל במומו פוסל (קידושין ע, ב whoever degrades the other person does it with his own faults.April 5, 2019 6:39 pm at 6:39 pm in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1710023Reb EliezerParticipantIt is not of course. Planting has to create roots but many hold that it happens right away.
April 5, 2019 3:30 pm at 3:30 pm in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1709903Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a difference between planting and cooking. Planting he is chayev when he places the seed in the ground whereas cooking he can remove it before it is cooked and not be chayev. See Tosfas Shabbos (4,1) beginning words Kodem.
April 5, 2019 12:08 pm at 12:08 pm in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1709858Reb EliezerParticipantThe more I think about it, the more it looks to me that drinking and telling about yetzias mitzraim are not alike.
When it comes to drinking, there is no mitzva in drinking only. but to be intoxicated that we fall asleep, whereas by telling about yetzias mitzraim, the falling asleep is a measurement in the extension of the mitzva, so you are mekaim the mitzva with small amount but continue doing it until falling asleep.April 5, 2019 10:33 am at 10:33 am in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1709839Reb EliezerParticipantLook at the reply #1709188 where I said the opposite, read it carefully, He has no control over the outcome, so it cannot be a mitzva, but he has control over drinking. Avraham was mekaim the mitzva of kiddush Hashem, whether he died or not is out of his conrol. The comparison anyway is not good because he is not mechuyav to repeat it until he dies.
April 4, 2019 12:52 pm at 12:52 pm in reply to: How to become a Gadol (not the bar mitzva kind)? #1709393Reb EliezerParticipantThere was a woman revered the Aishes Sma.
April 4, 2019 10:41 am at 10:41 am in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1709204Reb EliezerParticipantRG, I gave you a reference. The chazal wanted to continue doing the mitzva until he falls asleep. Even though he theoretically performed the mitzva but the part to fall asleep he was not mikayem, so he still has an oibligation to fulfill this. How does he fulfill it, by repeating the mitzva.
April 4, 2019 9:41 am at 9:41 am in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1709188Reb EliezerParticipantRG, You praise yourself how learned you are by finishing shas and SA but maybe you should learn MB first SA O”CH (60,10) from the Chayeh Adam. The mitzva is drinking and not being drunk until you come to the level of ad the dlo yada. Similarly, the mitzva is to sacrifice yourself al kiddush Hashem. On the results you have no control over, so it cannot be a mitzva.
Reb EliezerParticipantאין הגליות מתכנסות אלא בשביל המשניות שנאמר כם כי יתנו בגוים אץה אקבתם, the redemption will come because of learning of mishnayos, according to the midrash rabba. The word יתנו is a form of the word מתניתין.
Reb EliezerParticipantAccording to the Baal Hamoar you can perform the mitzva of tashbisu by eating it.
Reb EliezerParticipantRG, the snatching of the afikomon is done for fun in order the children should stay awake, so there is no stealing involved. They take it temporarily. If they don’t return it, you can take any shamurah matzoh and make it afikomon.
April 3, 2019 5:41 pm at 5:41 pm in reply to: I finished Shas, Tur and Shulchan Oruch! I am so proud! #1708825Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a story in EY where someone said, I saw Israel today, so he asks him, and what did you do in the afternoon? How much time did it take? In hebrew or in english?
April 3, 2019 5:37 pm at 5:37 pm in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1708787Reb EliezerParticipantRG, why don’t you ask your question on SA O”CH (481,2), since you said you finished it, where it says there is a chiyuv to tell about yetzias mitzraim until falling asleep? The sefer Minchas Chen on the Hagadah explains that you have performed the mitzva with a little but your still have a new chiyuv to tell again until you fall asleep.
April 3, 2019 2:47 pm at 2:47 pm in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1708656Reb EliezerParticipantEven if say that derabonon needs kavono lekatchila, but if the actions refllect the mitzva like drinking excessively. no kavono is required.
April 3, 2019 2:00 pm at 2:00 pm in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1708608Reb EliezerParticipantR. G. Drinking on purim is derabonon which does not need kavono.
April 3, 2019 2:00 pm at 2:00 pm in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1708604Reb EliezerParticipantSifsei Chachomim, the opposite is said, every drink is a new chiyuv until he falls asleep. Similarly, there is a new chiyuv for sippur yetzias mitzraim until he falls asleep.

April 3, 2019 11:53 am at 11:53 am in reply to: How Shidduchim became a beauty pageant contest. #1707868Reb EliezerParticipantDoesn’t it say שקר החן והבל היופי אשה יראת ה’ היא תתהלל grace is false and beauty is vain, a G-d fearing woman is praiseworthy.
April 3, 2019 9:14 am at 9:14 am in reply to: Bdikas Chometz: Hid 10 pieces of bread but found 11 #1707730Reb EliezerParticipantWho will take over when you leave since all the Jews are leaving? For whom are you bodek? Aren’t you moving to EY where you will also be bodek?
April 2, 2019 1:29 pm at 1:29 pm in reply to: Bdikas Chometz: Hid 10 pieces of bread but found 11 #1706695Reb EliezerParticipantMany hold if he sells his house to a non-jew before Pesach, he is not responsible to do bedikah.
April 2, 2019 11:52 am at 11:52 am in reply to: Bdikas Chometz: Hid 10 pieces of bread but found 11 #1706646Reb EliezerParticipantcoffee addict, It only happens after Techiyas Hamesim.
April 2, 2019 11:52 am at 11:52 am in reply to: Bdikas Chometz: Hid 10 pieces of bread but found 11 #1706644Reb EliezerParticipantRebbitzen, you are so sure about yourself, i am not. Over here he will never return, so he gives up ownership of his house and has no responsibility towards it. This is similar to moving thirty days before Pesach where I think he will not have to be bodek the old place at most he can be mevatel. The SA is talking in a case where he will return sometime.
April 1, 2019 1:50 pm at 1:50 pm in reply to: Bdikas Chometz: Hid 10 pieces of bread but found 11 #1706108Reb EliezerParticipantNo, you are leaving before night, so you have no chiyuv of bedikah since you won’t return for Pesach you won’t have to be bodek.
April 1, 2019 10:42 am at 10:42 am in reply to: Bdikas Chometz: Hid 10 pieces of bread but found 11 #1705971Reb EliezerParticipantRebbitzen, the halacha SA O”CH 436 is that if you want to leave early less than 30 days before and you figure you will return before Pesach, you don’t have to wait but be bodek the night before you leave.. If you don’t want to return, you don’t have a responsibility to be bodek. Others say that if he wants to return for Peasach but not before , then he always has to be bodek before he leaves.
April 1, 2019 9:53 am at 9:53 am in reply to: Donald Trump should not be the President of the United States #1705947Reb EliezerParticipantThey have a Hungarian saying, whoever has butter on his head should not go under the sun. If he didn’t want to be investigated, he should have never become president.
Reb EliezerParticipantThey say that potatoes were not available at the time of the Geonim, so the gezara was not on it even though we make flour from it.
March 31, 2019 6:32 pm at 6:32 pm in reply to: Going t Kever Rochel – “Mama Rochel helf mir” #1705658Reb EliezerParticipantRebbitzen, in SA O”CH (681,4) mentions a custom to go to the grave of tzadikim Erev Rosh Hashanah. The reason is indicated by the MB is that the place has holiness where tzadikim are burried and the tefilos are listened to easier without interference. This might answer your question about asking them to intercede to be a melitz yosher at the their grave site.
March 31, 2019 2:01 pm at 2:01 pm in reply to: Pessach: zman chairuseinu but not zman geulaseinu? #1705483Reb EliezerParticipantZmah chairoseinu refers also to the Kabolas haTorah whereas zman geuoiaseinu was temporary since we are still in galus.
March 31, 2019 12:44 pm at 12:44 pm in reply to: Bdikas Chometz: Hid 10 pieces of bread but found 11 #1705471Reb EliezerParticipantYou were mevatel what you did not find, so you can eat it provided it is edible.
March 31, 2019 12:43 pm at 12:43 pm in reply to: Going t Kever Rochel – “Mama Rochel helf mir” #1705462Reb EliezerParticipantAvi K, it is a common practice to say to be a melitz yosher.
Reb EliezerParticipantThere is a story that the Chayeh Adam wanted to asser potatoes for kitniyas so the people said you want to take away the chayeh adam.
March 31, 2019 11:13 am at 11:13 am in reply to: Going t Kever Rochel – “Mama Rochel helf mir” #1705396Reb EliezerParticipantThere is nothing wrong to ask the tzadikim to intercede as we find by Kolev Bamidbar (13,22). Similarly, the Rebbe is a conduit as the Kohaniim by Birchas Kohanim.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chasam Sofer says that having a girl is greater than a boy because by a girl you can choose to marry a talmid chacham but not by a boy to be one.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe the Oberlander use red radishes. Don’t make up your own but follow a custom. That is a zechus to follow a custom. They used potatoes because it was most common.
March 25, 2019 1:12 pm at 1:12 pm in reply to: Putting a nickname on a matzeva or footstone. Advice welcomed. #1700800Reb EliezerParticipantBe very careful what you put there as sometimes a nickname is derogatory.
Reb EliezerParticipantYabia Omer, The Sefer Hachinuch says אדם נפעל כפי פעולותיו, a person is influenced through his actions. The outside behavior influences his inner thinking.
March 20, 2019 9:08 am at 9:08 am in reply to: How to become a Gadol (not the bar mitzva kind)? #1699057Reb EliezerParticipantWhen one follows the the mishna in the beginning of the 4th Perek of Pirkei Avos who is rich, strong, smart, and respected as described there is considered a Gadol.

-ויהי’ ממחוז פלוני או פלוני:Reb EliezerParticipantAbout cutting the beard see the Chasam Sofer Shut O”CH 159 at the end http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=794&st=&pgnum=125&hilite= and http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=794&st=&pgnum=126&hilite=
Reb EliezerParticipantLubavitcher, Don’t refer to the Tanya when you have the Mishna (יהודא ןעוד לקרא) in Pirkei Avos, פרק ב’ משנה י”ג – ואל תהי רשע בפני עצמך Don’t be a rasha before yourself.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe GRA held that there is a mitzva to eat matzos the whole seven days and thereby to sit in the sukkah all seven days which makes it an os, so no teffilin is worn on Chol Hamoed.
Reb EliezerParticipantSolution: x + x + 1 =1.10, 2x + 1 = 1.10 2x=.10 x = .05 so Meno is correct.
Reb EliezerParticipantI figure you want to learn about חקירות. get the sefer http://www.hebrewbooks.org/51941 and the sefer
http:/www.hebrewbooks.org/42885.Reb EliezerParticipantJoseph, about abortion look up ‘אהלות פרק ז’ משנה ו, אשה שהיא מקשה לילד מחתכין את הולד במעיה וכו
Reb EliezerParticipantA person is not believed when he says he is a rasha. He is not suppose to give up but to strive to improve himself. This is the purpose of life to climb the ladder slowly to reach the heavens as Yakov Avinu envisioned in his dream.
March 11, 2019 7:32 pm at 7:32 pm in reply to: In the Purim Spirit: Women are required to Ad dlo yada 😂🤣😂🤣 #1693205Reb EliezerParticipantAccording to the RMA SA O’CH 695 just drink more than the usual and fall asleep afterwards so you can’t differentiate when you sleep. This can also be accomplished by women.
Reb EliezerParticipantGaon, Someone says I owe money for salary I did not pay them on time so he is ovar on lo solin at the same time do we say פלגינן דיבוריה?
Reb EliezerParticipantI don’t know your level of understanding but buy the black Minchas Chinuch, 3 volumes.
Reb EliezerParticipantYou have against it, other than momonas, אין אדם משים עצמו רשע, so he is not believed.
Reb EliezerParticipantI also heard in the name of some Rebbe -that shokling should be positive (forwards and backwards) and not negative (sideways) with the whole body and not just the head.
