Moish26, I gave a mekor to kol beisha which I think is worse.
August 16, 2022 11:50 pm at 11:50 pm in reply to: The coffee room is ussor and I’m trying to make sure people chap #2115841Reb EliezerParticipantIt says והיית משוגע maybe פשוטו כמשמעו it is a mitzva to be meshugener.
Reb EliezerParticipantFrom Wikipedia:
Nikita Khrushchev, leader of the Soviet Union from 1953 to 1964, said in his posthumously published memoir that he “cannot specifically say what kind of help the Rosenbergs provided us” but that he learned from Joseph Stalin and Vyacheslav Molotov that they “had provided very significant help in accelerating the production of our atomic bomb.”[54]
Boris V. Brokhovich, the engineer who later became director of Chelyabinsk-40, the plutonium production reactor and extraction facility that the Soviet Union used to create its first bomb material, alleged that Khrushchev was a “silly fool”. He said the Soviets had developed their own bomb by trial and error. “You sat the Rosenbergs in the electric chair for nothing”, he said. “We got nothing from the Rosenbergs.

We don’t know about each other’s family except maybe about me who revealed his history.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe, the one’s that put tefilin on chal hamoad do it separately in the weiber’s shul until we taking it off and merge.
Reb EliezerParticipantAAQ. who will support the seniors if they lose their money with their investment in their youth? I am happy that my Social Security is safe and kept in a lock box and I am against private investment.
August 16, 2022 7:35 pm at 7:35 pm in reply to: The coffee room is ussor and I’m trying to make sure people chap #2115724Reb EliezerParticipantWhat is says אל תרבה שיחה עם אשה, don’t speak much with a woman, I don’t think applies if you don’t know her, see her or hear her. Her political views or Torah views will not affect you.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chasam Sofer said that the Rav gets siyata dishmaya in his pesak and he admitted being three times wrong in his life time.
Reb EliezerParticipantTo be trusted in what we say we must admit when we are wrong and not be like the boy who was crying wolf and was not believed when the wolf actually came.
Reb EliezerParticipantYou know the saying, to err is human to forgive is divine.
August 16, 2022 5:35 pm at 5:35 pm in reply to: The coffee room is ussor and I’m trying to make sure people chap #2115703Reb EliezerParticipantEven kol beisha is paskened by the Yabia Omer (1,6) which is described in great detail, according to the Maharam Shik and others that if he does not know her and see her, it does not apply.
August 16, 2022 5:08 pm at 5:08 pm in reply to: The coffee room is ussor and I’m trying to make sure people chap #2115680Reb EliezerParticipantI agree with Avira as long as we don’t know and see with whom we are communicating no hirhur is involved.
Reb EliezerParticipantWe still don’t know why Trump took the documents in the first place.
Reb EliezerParticipantujm, I don’t know my mother a’h made it.
Reb EliezerParticipantI heard from Rav Shulman of Baltimore, who was asked what size of yarmulka to wear? He answered, big enough to cover your brain. Rav Shlomo Kluger held that it should cover the head.
Reb EliezerParticipantTo separate the body can be accomplished with a belt.
Reb EliezerParticipantYes
Reb EliezerParticipantyukel face, as your screen name indicates, I did not say not to wear a gartel but to wear it on the inside which satisfies the need for hikon, preparation for davenen but it can also be satisfied by washing the hands before davenen. Ozer Yisrael Bigbura can also be accomplished when worn on the inside. I think it is smart and cute. A yid is more heilig than a sefer torah is true as the kedusha comes from him but you have not given a reason why to wear it on the outside.
Reb EliezerParticipantujm, don’t you respect someone who stands up for their beliefs even by sacrificing their congressional seat? Maybe Trump is the liar?
Reb EliezerParticipantMy father did not wear a kittel for the seder but a special white hat called a heibel worn by Wiener and Hungarian Ashkenazim on Yomim Naroim.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chasam Sofer 159 says that there is no problem to shave. If for bechukoseihem, not the follow the goyim then who allowed us to wear black shoes that the galochim wear? The Maharik says that if there is a benefit other than a’z, it does not apply, so the color of the shoes doesn’t matter. As for imitating a woman, usually some stubbles are left, as the machine is not being pressed on the face.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Aruch Hashulchan says not to a have an atarah.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Hadhauser, Wiener Rav ztz’l did not wear a streimel in the shul until the bachurim bought it for him.
Reb EliezerParticipantIf not for the Democrats there would be no Medicare or Social Security. Currently, luckily, there is no taxes for Social Security under $25,000.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Rosenberg’s result was that Russia acquired nuclear weapons.
Reb EliezerParticipantMy Rebbi, the Matersdorfer Rav, Rav Shmuel, ztz’l wore a gartel under his beketcher. A pasul sefer Torah has an outside gartel. We have an expression in Hungarian being a pope over the pope by making themselves more religious than the father. I do wear a atarah on the talis (received as a present from my son) that my father did not
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chasam Sofer says that Rodef Shalom means to be against peace because one who is ohev shalom will pursue peace. Sometimes peace is an enemy as with the yetzer hara and the reform movement, so we must be against it.
Reb EliezerParticipantWhy should the rich and corporations not pay their fair share when they use government facilities more?
Reb EliezerParticipantAAQ, we need to give a springboard to people by having job training to gain the necessary skills which was eliminated by Reagan. I don’t believe that government will make them reliant on it as we know that people don’t like to eat nehame dekesufa, bread of shame. This is the reason we are born in the first place. So the government should help to make people be able to stand on their feet and not like the republicans who believe in ‘sink or swim’. I never took welfare in my lifetime but I did exhaust my unemployment. The logic, let someone else help will have the person end up with nothing as the saying one mother can support ten children but ten children cannot support one mother.
Reb EliezerParticipantAAQ, The Republicans following MF add more to the deficit per year than the Democrats according to online analysis. Tax cuts to the rich does not increase the economy.
Reb EliezerParticipantEight chapters of Tehilim was designated to say for shidduchim. 32, talks about finding a mate לעת מצאו it does not say מצא in the past but the present, finding now. She should always be like a kallah, who is found now. 38, Hashem should take away the pain of being alone, חושה לעזרתי. turn fast to my pain to provide my help, mate were עזר is a mate. 70, people should be rewarded according to their intentions to alleviate my pain, חושה לי עזרי provide me my mate. 82, the purpose of creation is to populate the world by getting married provided there is proper justice with truth and the bringing of peace. The world stands on the pillars of justice, truth and peace, ימוטו כל מוסדי ארץ, let us not destroy the foundation. 121, we ask Hashem to provide our mate. If it comes with the help from Hashem, עושה שמים וארץ, both heavenly and earthly needs can be provided to each other. 124, similar to 38 to alleviate pain ‘עזרנו בשם ה, the mate should come with the help of Hashem. 127, we daven for a mate to have good children, where בית can mean here asking for building a good home which will have the reward of good children. 128, One who is G-d fearing should be blessed with a good mate and children.
Reb EliezerParticipantMy contemporary from Chasan Sofer, HaRav Hagaon R’ Dovid Aryeh Ehrenfeld, Shlita.
Reb EliezerParticipantCould be the men dying in the Midbar caused them a depression, not wanting to get married which stopped on Tu B’Av, so the girls became happy again and dressed up in white as a sign of celebration similar like in Yom Kippur for forgiveness.
Reb EliezerParticipantAAQ, I base myself on what you said, which if Milton Friedman said would not be correct as that also causes inflation. I don’t have to read him as I don’t agree with him. Increased demand because of too much money in circulation and lack of goods which are desired to buy including its costs causes inflation. President Bush Sr. called it voodoo economics.
August 11, 2022 10:44 pm at 10:44 pm in reply to: In honor of Tisha B'av. What you respect about… #2114518Reb EliezerParticipantI respect CS for seeing through and recognizing trolls.
Reb EliezerParticipantChasidishe yeshivas don’t have roshei yeshivas?
Reb EliezerParticipantSee משנה תענית פרק ד’ח and the gemora :תענית ל also .ב’ב קכ’א
Reb EliezerParticipantWhat Milton Friedman says is not exactly true. There is another source of inflation the costs of products which are passed on to consumers who are getting a fixed income.
Reb EliezerParticipantObviously not money. There is an argument between supply side economics (Milton Friedman) and demand side (Keynesian). There is no incentive to increase supply if the demand is low, so the government must do that.
August 10, 2022 1:15 pm at 1:15 pm in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #2113920Reb EliezerParticipantDofi, what does your screen name mean?
Reb EliezerParticipantThe primary cause of inflation is not enough supply, so we increase supply through government spending.
August 9, 2022 12:30 pm at 12:30 pm in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #2113519Reb EliezerParticipantThe Sefer Hachinuch explains that we are not suppose to pray to Hashem, have mercy on me as You have mercy on a bird by Shiluach Hakein, as we are comparing Hashem’s mercy to ours where ours comes automatically from emotions whereas Hashem’s mercy comes from His understanding. So all His emotions come from His understanding. The body parts above are a model to the functioning of our body parts below.
August 9, 2022 12:28 pm at 12:28 pm in reply to: Hospital to Haredi woman applying for job: ‘From Bnei Brak? Not with us’ #2113504Reb EliezerParticipantI was refused a job at an orthodox place claiming that in computers, where new systems are placed in production over the weekend, they need a ‘shabbos goy’ to be able to maintain its proper functioning.
August 9, 2022 12:28 pm at 12:28 pm in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #2113499Reb EliezerParticipantThe Chasam Sofer also explains that we eat hardboiled eggs at the Seder to symbolize that similar to eggs where the more they get cooked the harder they get, we the Jews the more we suffer the stronger we stand my our emunah. I heard that we are compared in Shir Hashirim to a rose among the thorns which will grow straight through avoid bending on either side not to get hurt. We the Jews also grow straight by avoiding the suffering when we bend away from Hashem.
August 9, 2022 11:18 am at 11:18 am in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #2113461Reb EliezerParticipantTo explain Sam Klein who says Hashem has no feelings and then speaks about feelings. The Rambam explains that the Torah uses human expressions for our understanding, lesaber es haozen, by using descriptions, like emotions, anger, mercy.. and body parts, hands, eyes, ears, mouth..
August 9, 2022 11:13 am at 11:13 am in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #2113447Reb EliezerParticipantTisha B’Av is related to Pesach as the first day coincides. Many things the Nazis ym’s learned from Pharaoh for example the Jewish kapos and putting those able to work and murdering the rest. Pharaoh would have done the same thing if not for the recognition of Yosef. The Chasam Sofer explains that if not for Pesach, by leaving before the time, other galusin would not have occurred and no Tisha B’av would have happened. The Binah Leitim explains that Hashem rather than fold the belt and hit us at one time, He used on us a regular belt multiple times.
August 9, 2022 10:10 am at 10:10 am in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #2113441Reb EliezerParticipantIt also says עמו אנכי בצרה Hashem’s dwelling is with us in galus, the shechina. The Dubner Maggid explains what its says אנכי ארד עמך I will descend with you, and אעלך גם עלה, I will lift you out and Myself. The questions he asks, why by going down Hashem comes first whereas by coming up we come first? He compares this to a father who takes his young son to a swimming pool. When going down, to protect him, he goes down first and when coming up the protection is that the son should come first. Similarly, Hashem went down to Mitzraim first, then He took us down. However, when coming up, He takes us out first. Maybe this explains also the contradiction in the beginning of Shemos הבאים, present and באו, past. The Rabbenu Bachaya says that איש וביתו refers to Hashem and His court. So when the Jews went down to Mitzraim, Hashem came already. It will happen similarly in the current galus based on the pasuk, כימי צאתינו ממצרים אראנו נפלאות, the wonders we will see will be similar now as when we left from Mitzraim.
August 8, 2022 11:37 pm at 11:37 pm in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #2113321Reb EliezerParticipantHashem does not show His presence because of His sadness that He had to destroy the Beis Hamikdash, so the shechina is in galus and hidden from us. We must daven for the galus hashechina to be revealed again. We don’t understand the tzaar of Hashem.
Reb EliezerParticipantDick Cheney also agrees of the daughter that Trump cannot admit that he lost the election. You cannot improve yourself if you don’t know that you did something wrong.
Reb EliezerParticipantThe Midrash says that Meshiach was born on Tisha B’Av.
