Reb EliezerParticipant
ויאהב יצחק את עשו כי ציד בפיו ורבקה אהבת את יעקב the Meforshim explain that this was the difference between Yitzchok and Rivka. Yitzcok loved Aisov because he hunted for his mouth, realing loving himself, but Rivka loved Yaakov without self interest.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Shevat Sofer explains that you need disagreement to come to the true avodas Hashem. By her being knegdo she becomes an ezer avoiding tunnel vision through being able to see the other side of an argument.

If he refuses, the conversion is botel retroactively but I have never heard that the milah gets invalidated on a jewish baby.
Reb EliezerParticipantHashem created this world not for his benefit, but for ours. He shares his wealth with all of us wanting that we should do the same. Hilel says אם אין אני לי מי לי if I am not for myself who is כשאני לעצמי מה אני but if I am only for mysellf what am I. The purpose of a man is to work on himself and then on others. If he doesn’t follow this, it would be better if he would never be born because he doesn’t follow the purpose of creation. His existence does not necessarily satisfy the the purpose of creation. The women were created to be a partner to the men satisfying their purpose by their existence. The brocho of the women is not appropriate for the men. The women’s main purpose is to build a family.

August 27, 2018 6:41 pm at 6:41 pm in reply to: Question on R Miller (maybe joe will answer) #1580727Reb EliezerParticipantTo lose a mitzva when you regret it afterwards is if the mitzva is the maasei hamitzva but if the result or tachlis is the mitzva then you still have the mitzva afterwards regardless if you regret it or not.
Reb EliezerParticipantYou only need a gun if the assailant has a gun which easily accessable because of lack of gun control.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chasam Sofer did not say Shalom Aleichem friday night. He would extend the time of saying slichos in order not to say machnisei rachamim.
This was based on a Mahral in order not to give the impression we are davening to malochim. Malachei rachamim should be said to Hashem that He should command his malochim.Reb EliezerParticipantAAS, Without the internet how would you have made your post? Everything has good and bad.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe brocho שעשני כרצונו Hashem created me according to His will tells us that women fulfill the will of Hashem by their existence.

Reb EliezerParticipantReb EliezerParticipantRav Ovadyah Yosef in his Yechaveh Daas Chelek 4:1 says that wearing yarmulka is a midas chasidus according the Beis Yosef, still people should cover their head in order that it should indicate who is a religious orthodox Torah observing Jew.
August 26, 2018 2:26 pm at 2:26 pm in reply to: Question on R Miller (maybe joe will answer) #1580129Reb EliezerParticipantThe מלא הרועים on סוגיות מצות צריכות כוונה ס’ק ט says that a mitzva like milah where the result is the mitzva kavonoh does not matter. That is why by tzadakah kavonoh does not matter and he can give it in order that his son should live long, as long as the mitzva is done properly by a Jew.
August 26, 2018 12:33 pm at 12:33 pm in reply to: Halachic question regarding bal tashchis and tza’ar baalei chayim #1580076Reb EliezerParticipantBy Kapores, there is no reason to have the had of fowl dangling downward.
Reb EliezerParticipantIt does not have to be true to the replier but they are saying that the blessing is true to the blesser.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Torah starts with a beis. Some say in the Midrash to recognize there are two worlds. For this reason we say lechaim in plural. Maybe this minhag came about צדיקים אפילו במתתן קרואים חיים the pious even when they are dead are still alive, so seeing them in their grave keeps them alive.
Reb EliezerParticipantAvi K, see SA O’CH 581:4 RMA in the name of the Mahril and MB 27.

Reb EliezerParticipantIf is a rasha lehachis, you will not be convince him just make him worse whichever way, if is doing well, he will say I am being rewarded, so I must be doing something right. and If is doing badly, he will say, G-d does not care about me, or there is ch’v no G-d.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe gemora Berochos 7:1 says that a צדיק גמור a pious person with no sins will be fully rewarded this world and next world, whereas a רשע גמור a wicked person with nothing good will be punished in this world and next world. It you only see the reward and punishment in this world than you might forget about the next world to come. The Ramban in Parshas Acharei says that it matters what your intentions are in doing mitzvos. If you do it for this world’s reward, so will you be rewarded in this world and if you do it for next world’s reward,you will be rewarded in the next world.
Reb EliezerParticipantHow is it צדיק ורע לו a pious person and bad is happening to him, whereas רשע וטוב לו a wicked and good is hapenning to him? If a pious person does some bad, he gets punished on this world for it, whereas the wicked get rewarded in this world. Recognize that the wicked get rewarded for their demise because they think everything is fine and will not repent.

Reb EliezerParticipantMoshe1994, People don’t worship the pictures but seeing him encourages them to follow his ways and thereby be helped.
Reb EliezerParticipantMy rebbi has a painting of his grandfather in his house. It also includes that by a shiur you should see your rebbi.
Reb EliezerParticipantSome people keep a picture of their rebbi based on the pasuk
והיו עינך ראות את מראיך keep your teacher infront of you all the time. So if you care about your rebbi, he will protect you.Reb EliezerParticipantSomething from Ben Ish Chai it says ויחן שם ישראל נגד ההר the Jews rested around the mountain. If you take the letters around הר before and after we get before ‘ד’ , ‘ק’ and after ‘ו’, ‘ש’ making together the word ‘קדוש’. unity brings to holiness and then replace ‘ק’, ‘ש’ with two ‘ר’ gives us the word ‘דרור’ indicating that holiness brings to freedom, the redemption.
Reb EliezerParticipantSomething from Rav Yanoson Steiff zt”l zy”a the story abount the convert who wanted to learn the whole Torah on one leg. What were the two legs? בין אדם לחבירו mitzvos that apply among each other and בין אדם למקום mitzvos that apply between us and Hashem. He only wanted to accept the mitzvos that apply among his fellow men which alone is not sufficiient according to Shamai is insufficient. Whereas, Hilel held that includes everything.
Reb EliezerParticipantRav Yanoson zt’l writes that maariv on Friday night is biblical since there is no left over sacrifice done on shabbos.
