    By the chasidishe, they used to put the word ורעיתו to refer to the mother now they put וב’ב – ובני ביתו also והרבנית indicating the Rebitzin but the name is not mentioned.

    By the 100 shofar kolos as it is part of tefila which the RMA says is not a hefsak, I say it.

    Yabia, there is no gemora to say it but in SA O;CH 124,5 as noted by the Beer Hagolah 6, Tur in the name of his father, the Rosh. This is the reason when it is forbidden to be mafsik, we don’t say it.

    It says כל הנשמה תהלל י-ה, על כל נשמה ונשמה תהלל י-ה, we should praise Hashem for every breath take.

    The Rosh was a talmid from the Maharam from Rothenburg who was a talmid of Rav Yitzchak Ohr Zarua of Vienna. He was called Ohr Zarua because of a dream. He saw in a dream that Rebbi Akiva should be spelled with a ‘hey’ at the the end and not an aleph as the last letters of the pasuk אור זרוע וכו’ – ר’ עקיבה indicate. His rebbi was the Sefer Chasidim above, Rebbi Yehudah Hachassid.

    What about the Sefer Chasidim in the beginning who says to say Hashem Yisborach as it says zecher tzadik livrocho and the Rosh who instituted to say baruch hu uvaruch shma?

    Sarah Imeunu felt, as she did not even have a womb, she was not worthy of a miracle to change nature. It was a fear of the greatness of Hashem, as the gemora in Shabbos argues by the man nursing if he was great or not for changing nature.

    The gemora in Bava Metzia says that women are stingy and I said that maybe the men are stingy she cannot do anything against his will but Sarah Imenu knew that Avraham doesn’t mind, so she gave soles, fine flour over kemach, thicker flour.

    The Chovas Halvovas explains that when a carpenter makes a table they all look the same like a table but Hashem created every individual to be different. The Sefer Chagvei Haselah from Rav Yonah Tzvi Horowitz, explains that the Torah start with a ב to emphasize this bechina, being different and the aseres hadibros with an א, through the mitzvos to unify each other. Tefila, the zechusim of the tzibur, Torah learning, give a take like a business transaction, and even for Tefilin, someone else’s help is necessary, if someone does not make it, we cannot put it on.

    CTRebbe, limudim come with logic. A girl is also a Jew and needs to be trained. Learning Torah is a mitzva on its own for men but for women it is to know how to do their mitzvas, therefore gemora is not really required and they can do their mitzvas because they were commanded.

    The Sefer Hachinuch Mitzva 21 says that the telling to your son also includes the telling to anyone. So, the Torah many times talks about the usual, dibrah hatorah behoveh as the sons are responsible to perpetuate the mesorah. Rabbi Moshe in Ingos Moshe (5,20) says that women can be motzi men sippur yetzias mitzraim as they are also responsible. For the family, women should also be able to ask questions.

    Rabbi Yonasan Eubshitz gives a very interesting interpretation on vaadoni zoken, which refers to Hashem. When an open neis is being done like yetzias mitzraim, Hashem revealed Himself as a gibor, general but at kabolas hatorah as a zaken because no open neis or miracle was done there. Sarah Imenu saw Hashem as a zaken indicating to her that here no miracle will be done and she cannot have a child as she did not have a womb, so vaani zakanti refers to Hashem. Lo tzochakti, I did not laugh for not being possible, but ki Yarea is a yiras horamemus feeling that she is not worthy to this type of miracle.

    Syag, why is it not a practiced skill because they are not being taught, spoon fed as Artscroll spoon feeds the gemora and therefore most people cannot learn on their own. Respect is also something to be desired.

    Isn’t the reason obvious why not to take gifts by being subjugated as it says שונא מתנות יחיה one who hates gifts lives long? The Maasei Hashem explains the passage in the Haggadah משועבדים הינו with thanks.

    The Ksav Sofer has an interesting explanation for Avraham returning to the motel to pay off his dues. He was constantly badgered, if you are such a tzadik why are you not rich? He owed them an answer, so when he became rich, he returned with an answer.

    As Biden inherited this behavior is he responsible? The Chachamim said מטלטלין דיתמי לבעל חוב לא משתעבדי the orphans are not responsible for the loans left over from the father when it comes to movable objects except for a written loan or field which were already designated before inheritance.

    The Chasam Sofer said that we must respect our leaders. He proofs this from Eliyahu Hanovi who ran after Achav, a rasha, for respect. There is a teshuva about man and women singing together for the honor of the king. He said that a benevolent king who knows that this behavior is against our halacha will not ask that from us.

    GH, well put. They are at the water fountain and drink the way
    they (WYN) want and as much as they want and we can’t stop them. It shows that they are biased and thereby making the news less credible, if not for AP.
