Menachem, according to you there is no problem as a safek is allowed to marry a safek.
The Torah specially is matir a safek as mentioned maybe because if like you, who may join the kehal Hashem?
Rashi in Mispatim explains on לא אנה לידו, was not done intentionally. Two individuals where one kills intentionally and the other by accident are invited by Hashem to a motel. The one who kills intentionally sleeps below in a bunkbed and the other above. The one sleeping above falls on the one below with witnesses present and killing him. Now the one who killed intentionally is dead and the other one ends up in arei miklat.
Goodwin’s Law makes sense. When we hate someone, we will compare them to the worst even though it might not apply.
The problem is that this Texas shooter did not have any prior violations. Assault weapons should not be allowed.
They have a heter and not that they get a heter based on דרכיה דרכי נועם, the Torah’s way is pleasant and does not force something on the person that is against their health or they don’t like but rather we find an alternative.
Maybe they are against religious Jews who don’t believe in having guns. Eisov was the hunter as it says על חרבך תחיה, his support came through the sword. הקל קול יעקב והידים ידי עשו where Yaakov’s job is to use his voice to daven and not guns.
The Ben Ish Chai says to say Shabbat Shalom as Shabbos sudah unites and makes peace between the body and soul. The guf wants one thing and the neshama another but eating on Shabbos is good for the guf and the neshama.
What about דיני דמלכותא דיני and a Chilul Hashem?
To have two breads we can have chicken soup after dairy and fish rather than meat itself. I have not found the halacha that only meat is a sudah. The RMA would not say to eat two breads but we must have meat in a sudah.
The RMA O’CH 494,3 says to remember the Shtei Halechem by having two breads, one for dairy and another for meat.
My Hebrew name above has the same gematria as my family name – אליעזר צבי = 420 as קערן = 420.
I have two names, so say multiple pesukim. My name is Eliezer Tzvi so say first אלה ברכב and then צר ומצוק.
Rebbe Yehuda Hachasid forbids marrying someone with the same name as the mother in law, but they say that if one is called by both names then it is ok.
ממזר ודאי אמר רחמנא ולא ספק ממזר, see the Shev Shematesa 1 for a detail discussion.
כל הפוסל במומו פוסל the one who faults, faults with their own fault.
According to you who can join the kehal Hashem?
The best is a chassidishe litvak which adds some lebedigkeit into them.
People get what they deserve.
People are not allowed to destroy the ozone layer that Hashem created to protect us,
AAQ, FYI, the above Midrash about creating worlds and destroying them is in Koheles (3,11) on the pasuk את הכל עשה יפה בעתו, everything Hashem made is as needed for its time.
Hashem on purpose put the sun in the center in order to eliminate our gaiva but the world was created for the Bnei Yisrael as Bereishis indicates בשביל ישראל שנקרא ראשית and בשביל התורה שנקרא ראשית.
I read a book Dr. Heidegger’s Experiment by Nathaniel Hathorne where the elderly drink the Fountain of Youth. They become young and relive their life being as bad as before. So the question is, would a person live his life differently if one could relive it?
Should be above ישקני, kiss me with the kiss of his mouth, Hashem should kiss us through the kiss of his, the Torah being uttered by the mouth.
Maybe according to the holy Berditchever ztz’l who said that we can accomplish the same results with simcha as with sadness. When we are happy with a mitzva, we make above, Hashem happy which allows us to ask anything we require.
The gemora in Bava Metzia in Perek Hazahav describes the power of Tachnun where Rebbi Eilezer was the brother in law of Rabon Gamliel. The wife of Rebbi Eliezer did not allow him to fall on his face in order not to hurt her brother. One day she miscalculated and she told him get up you just killed my brother. Be careful if you have taanus against someone, one did something bad to you, not to hurt them through tachnun.
By learning and being close to the Torah, lishmo, we also get close to Hashem by showing appreciation to His Torah ישקיהו מנשיקות פיהו.
I am not a litvak but why do chasiddim find excuses not say like in hod or a rebbes yahr zeit?
Yabia, it is not correct. When necessary, one can daven until chatzos even though he might not gain the reward for tefila bezmano, davening in its time but it is considered davening. The question is whether one can daven after chatzos in the half hour until mincha.
Look up SA O’CH 89,1 Baer Hetev s’k 4 and MB s’k 7.
Yabia Omer, what is your answer?
מבין דבר מתוך דבר, coming to understand one thing from another which is already understood and so on.
Rashi says on ושננתם, שיהי’ דברי תורה מחודדים בפיך the words of Torah should be sharpened in your mouth שאם ישאל אדם דבר such that if one asks something אל תגמגם don’t stutter אלא אמור לו מיד but be able to answer them instantaneously.The problem is that not enough emphasis is placed on bekios and Shulchan Aruch see the sefer Tenu Kavod Latorah from Rav Fuerst. See https://hebrewbooks dot org/22633
It look like saying Tikun Leil Shavuos does not have to be understood. A person gets a reward for staying up and showing appreciation for the Torah. It might encourage one to learn it in more detail later on.
motchah11, The above sefer in Meseches Shevuos quotes the holy Zohar and prescribes to say the text of Tikun Leil Shevuos.
The way I learned it, 18forever is correct but they say that it is better to wash hands and bentsh.
There is a place that sells used seforim Jewishusedbooks dot com.
Also we do not go after rov by a goy but by a Jew rov are not viable until birth. The proof is in Parshas Mishpatim were money is paid when killing fetus.
Anyway to pronounce something is spelled with an ‘ou’ so pronounciation should be spelled like that and not pronunciation. English spelling is stupid. As you would want to spell fish as ghoti where gh is like rough, o like women and ti like nation.
Milhouse, why are you makpid on his spelling when you know what he means? We never correct spelling errors.
We discussed this already that there is a difference between a Jew and a goy. By a Jew, no and by a Goy, yes. The Minchas Chinuch questions whether the exception of saving the mother applies by a goy.
Go to sleep around 2:00 AM and get up to daven with the regular minyan. When davening with a hashkama minyan, being up the whole night, the davenen is asleep.
We makeup for the fact that we overslept at Kabolas Hatorah and Hashem was waiting for us as it says ויוצא משה, Moshe Rabbenu led us like the Kallah towards the Chasan, Hashem.
There is a story between the Dubner Maggid and the GRA were the the GRA said Tikun Leil Shevuos and the Dubner Maggid learned Shavuos night. They asked the Dubner Maggid why don’t you do like the GRA? He gave a mashel. When a peddler shows samples to sell merchandise, it only makes sense if he has a storeroom of merchandize to fulfill the orders. The GRA is an outstanding talmid chacham can show samples but I have to learn to fill up my storeroom in order to be able to show samples. We must learn before one can do, גדולה תלמוד שמביאה לידי מעשה.
The Rebbe said on ‘אולי יש חמשים צדיקים ‘בתוך העיר, maybe fifty tzadikim exist in the town. I want the tzadikim two stay in the town and shrei gevalt, protest and don’t leave.
The first.
The Yemenites, Temanim follow the Rambam.
Once he left from the cave, he was sent back as he did not understand people’s behavior, not learning Torah all the time. He wanted to burn up everything and was told, don’t destroy my world.
Shylock also said that if they pierce us don’t we bleed.
