The Ramban on Kedoshim Tihye says to sanctify ourselves with the permitted, to enjoy things with a measure not be nivul birshus hatorah, a villain on the umbrella of the Torah.
A nazir is a sinner because he doesn’t want to enjoy what Hashem provided to us.
The Ben Ish Chai says that we say Shabbos Shalom because we are uniting the mitzva of eating for shabbos and one’s desire of food by eating lashem Shomayim.
We call the sacrifice shelamim making peace between Hashem and us by eating lashem Shomayim, see SA O’CH 231.Rashi says on vaera, אל האבות, to the ancestors, being concise. Maybe, the Baal Haturim explains that האבות has the same letters ואהבת, like Avraham Avinu who בכל לבבך loved Hashem with his whoie heart. בכל נםשך, Yitzchak Avinu, who sacrificed himself with his whole soul and ובכל מאדך, what is the most precious to you, your wealth, where Yaakov said that everything Hashem gives him he will give maaser, tithe by showing how they each loved Hashem.
Should be above threw a bitter tree into it.
Vaera is gematria Yitzchak indicating that the time of the geula, redemption will be calculated from him and the difference between Yitzchak and Yischak is 210, the time actually spent in Mitzraim. Moshe Rabbenu was told, remember your name gematria, א-ל שד-י.
The answer to my question is that they don’t have it, so see: https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/general/2045128/ambitious-torah-umesorah-raising-25-million-to-assist-in-raising-teacher-salaries.html
Why does not supply (merit) and demand determine the salary?
Not to be afraid to question. Get a chavrusa as it says cherev al habadim, sword comes when learning alone. The Haflaah says that a question comes from heavenly intervention, siata Dishmaya. When the Jews found bitter water they through a bitter tree into it to become sweet. When we learn a piece of gemora and don’t understand it, it is bitter. With the help of Hashem we throw on it a kashye which is bitter without a answer but it ends up, when an answer is found, to become sweet.
The Kotzker explains that vayelech charana, going to Charan by Yaakov Avinu rather than lecharan is teaching us that a person should hold back talking as long as one can. Syag lechachma shtika, the fence of wisdom is silence. Silence protects wisdom from escaping. Silent has the same letters as listen, required to gain more wisdom.
The problem is John Kasich is a Republican but he can run as such or Liz Chenney.
Abba_S, according to your logic Hashem would have never created the human being as he is not perfect. See Midrash Rabeh, Bereishis (8,5).
Yes, they are in the near future. Things are not perfect when an invention is first revealed and the problems get solved afterwards.
The Haflaah says that a rebbi to be learned from should be like angel of G-d who stays constant and does not elevate itself. The rebbi in order to show the greatness of his talmidim acts like a malach putting aside his gadlus by allowing them to shine. Similarly the Chasam Sofer, the student, says that the moon was willing to make itself smaller in order that the stars should be able to shine. The Maasei Hashem says that Avraham Avinu was shown the stars to reflect how we should shine in galus by publicizing the existence of Hashem, lefarsem elokuso.
When an invention came about, problems arrived which generated solutions. To solve a problem always look at the highest level of purpose. The bird which wanted to drink water placed pebbles into it, so the water should reach its mouth but the highest level of purpose was to drink water which if found elsewhere would have sufficed.
The Targum says that that the ability of speech was blown into him. Maybe the neshama gives the ability of speech.
Why not the third? Aren’t the third mazim the second?
We don’t give a standing ovation for killing people for whatever reason.
There is a difference between socialism and communism.
hero from the dictionary:
a person who is admired for great or brave acts or fine qualities
You don’t give a standing ovation if you don’t consider him a hero.
standing ovation from Merriam Webster Dictionary:
an occurrence in which the people at a play, speech, sporting event, etc., stand up and applaud to show enthusiastic approval or appreciation
He was given a standing ovation by the Republicans making him a hero.
Why isn’t the first pair afraid that a second pair will come and be mazim them and therefore will be careful what they say as the second pair? The gemora says it is a chidush. Why trust the second pair more than the first?
The Rif at the end Eruvin says that Bavli and Yerusalmi argue, we pasken like Bavli because the Bavli came after it and would know what it was saying. I pointed out the Yabia Omer above who discusses the time of Rebbe Yeshuah ben Perachaya in great detail.
The Moshav Zekeinim gives another reason. The executed’s family might have such strong hatred in their heart against the witnesses who killed him to get another two witnesses to be mazim them therefore hazoma will not work when killed. There is a midrash that says velo kaasher asa.
There is an other limud. zomam leachiv, achiv kayem, means the brother is alive. So they ask even dead is called a brother? The Ritva answers there are two kinds of brothers, A real brother is called so even after death but this a brother in mitzvos which only applies when alive.
First, what is the difference between eidei hakchasha, contradictory witnesses where they can testify separately and eidim zomemin where they get killed? By eidei hackhasha their taina, the agreement of their argument is being questioned whereas by eidim zomimin, indicating that they were together somewhere else at the time, the credibility of the witnesses is eliminated. The chidush is that we trust the second witnesses and not the first. When the individual was killed, the Ramban explains that Hashem would not have led to kill him and trust the first witnesses by the Beis Din when they were not honest and credible, so kaasher zomam does not apply. The Dubner Magid gives a mashel. Someone slapped someone, so the Beis Din rules to slap him back. He says it is not fair, I was slapped innocently and he is slapped when guilty. So once killed is not kaasher zomam, is not tit for tat. By a gamal poreach, a fast flying camel, an airplane where the trip can be made the same day, they should not become eidim zomemin.
Mod, what you are saying does not make any sense. Maybe there is a router where everything received goes to one address.
The Chezkuni mentioned above is quoted from Pirkei d’Rebbi Eliezer 51.
Maybe not all comes out.
The malachim wanted the hidden treasure, the secrets hidden in the Torah, so Moshe Rabbenu told them that if the simple understanding does not apply they cannot receive that either. The Ben Ish Chai illustrates this with a mashel. A father who had multiple children. He bought one of them a special suit which has precious stones and jewelry sewn into it. They all agreed that whoever gets the suit gets the valuables in it but the question was who it was intended for? The youngest one gets up and says, let’s try it on see who it fits?
The Chasam Sofer explains that in order to be mechadesh something in the Torah we have to put the effort into it through kashyes by revealing the hidden buried treasures. The haflah says that a kashye is a divine intervention, a siyata dishmaya. He gives a mashel to a simpleton who was given a diamond. He thinks, what can I do with it? So, he goes to a goldsmith, as he likes gold, he tells to cover it in gold. As he was no expert in the field, he left some holes behind. The simpleton sees the gold but the smart one sees the diamond under the gold which gets revealed through the kashyes.As stated above the neshama was blown in through the nose, so it would be blown out through the nose.
A sneeze might need an immune system as bacteria is being released and infect on the way out.
shlucha22, you have the best answer.
They say that people too protected from illness are more apt to get sick as the immune system is not built up to fight it.
המטה is gematria 59 indicating when a sick person is visited 1/60 is taken away. The gemora in Nedorim 30, asks then 60 people will take away the whole illness. The gemora answers 1/60 of what is left over. Tosfas explains that it only applies to ben gilo, his mazel.
The Klei Yakar explains the reason why an am haaretz is not allowed to eat meat. What makes him better than an animal? The learning of the Torah and that is why Noach was allowed meat. He knew the difference between animals to sacrifice, whereas Adam Harishon is not clearly seen that he learned Torah, so he was not allowed to eat meat.
