    “Coffee Addict: What are you trying to imply with the shoes thing? It seems random and weird, but what would be theoretically wrong with it? Why is it worse than having a minhag to wear a purple tie on the first Thursday of every month or any other random thing?“

    Neville,

    I was wondering if Lubavitch puts the rebbe on a higher level than even the Avos Hakedoshim because I’ve never heard of ANYONE taking off their shoes going into מערת המכפלה or קבר רחל and the only reason why they do it is because they view that land specifically as ״אדמת קדש״ because the rebbe is buried there

    Btw in shul we have a yerushalmi shiur (brachos) and we learned the Gemara of “Menachem shmei” but over there moshiach was named Menachem and went up to שמים as a baby

    Somejew,

    As you see I posted them to get the ball rolling on what other people want to see

    Neville,

    So being duped by the top “doctor” (sorry I should’ve wrote top moocher) is somehow his fault?

    Akuperma,

    “Most of what the original posting wants are beyond the power of the president. especially on matters related to commodity prices or international relations.“

    So the Abraham accords weren’t trumps cabinets’ doing

    When I say presidency I mean administration but you really like to parse words

    Do Lubavitch take off their shoes by מערת המכפלה, קבר רחל, or קבר רשב״י?

    If not, why not?

    If so, I’ve never seen ANYONE (including Lubavitchers) do it

    CA: In Sephardic countries when it was the norm to come to Shul in a turban, indeed coming to Shul without a turban would be disrespectful and warrant being asked to leave until the turban is put on.

    Let me rephrase that for you Joe

    In America when it was the norm to greet a dignitary in a hat and jacket, indeed coming to shul without one is disrespectful and warrant being asked to leave until the the hat and jacket is put on. (But nowadays, since no one “wears a hat and jacket” to greet a dignitary)

    To play OP’s advocate

    Who says a hat and jacket (something that was chashuve 100 years ago in America and Europe) is any better than a turban and robe, a sombrero or a kimono

    Just decided to pop in to ask this question (not really following the flow anymore, but I see it’s still going)

    What’s up with the non leather shoes, and walking out backwards. I’ve been to countless kivrei tzaddikim (רשב״י, רמב״ם, ר מאיר בעל הנס etc) and I don’t think breslovers have that rule (I have friends that went for Rosh Hashanah)

    I understand the rule of אדמת קודש but isn’t this going a little TOO far?

    “Some will be revealed to be Gentiles.
    Some will be revealed to be mamzerim.
    Some will be revealed to be chalalim.”

    Square root,

    How so?

    If someone has “goyishe genes” it’s possible that his great grandmother converted halachicly and no one has records from 200 years ago

    Not sure how one can tell זנות from a genealogy test either…..

    Best is to ask a Rav (don’t worry they don’t bite) over some random CR poster that might be talking out of his you know where

    What does maturing in one night have to do with being a man, girls are more mature than men (as evidenced that girls become בת מצוה at 12)?

    To answer your question (in my humble opinion) is that women are supposed to be btznius (כל כבודה) you always hear people call their daughters “princess” I rarely hear a son being called “prince”

    From Ywn’s WhatsApp group

    “*BREAKING UPDATE:* U.S. officials have informed ABC News that Nasrallah, along with several of his top lieutenants, were in Beirut during the Israeli airstrike targeting the main Hezbollah command bunker – raising speculation about whether Nasrallah and his leadership were directly impacted.

    In response to the development, U.S. President Joe Biden has been briefed on the Israeli operation, which is being described as a “decapitation strike” aimed at Hezbollah’s top leadership.

    Smerel,

    Do you think holding open a door for you is “ hardly something to give credit or thanks for.”?

    We’ve seen Biden in the past appease the other side by disclosing names, giving bags of cash, and saying “don’t” so none of it was done over here and he even came out with a statement supporting the killing even though it will hurt the “Michigan vote”

    Menachem Shmei,

    There is a Sefer called רש״י כפשוטו (it’s a Chumash with rashi and an explanation on rashi) that brings a Gemara in bava basra that says it doesn’t say מיתה by דוד המלך because his son Shlomo followed in his footsteps and the same could be said here

    How long do you think it takes to train people that “sit and learn” to fight in a war?

    I think it takes months (especially if they’re not physically fit or even if they are, physically active)

    Do you believe in Gemara ? Especially when it says תלמידי חכמים מרבה שלום בעולם?

    Wow nisht

    I take it I drew on a tough nerve

    I’ll clarify what I said before

    a lady goes shopping and buys a bag of unchecked romaine lettuce washes it in water three times (maybe adds a little soap in the mix) does that mean there is no bugs on the lettuce?

    Does she have a light box and check every leaf?

    Even if she does, to an untrained eye she can miss bugs that are there (I’m not saying minuscule that you can’t see them without a magnifying glass I’m saying bugs that people see but don’t know it’s a bug because they’re not familiar with it)

    I really don’t know why you’re attacking my character when you know nothing about me but like I’ve said other times it’s Elul and I won’t hold it against you

    “2) If he truly does not know, then it his responsibility to speak to the Rav Hamachshir, that is exactly his job. A Rav Hamachshir (or a reliable one) does train mashgichim to know how to check for tolaim. (How much is necessary and what to look for and the method to look for tolaim) and is responsible to set standards and make decisions when there is a question.“
    So is it the mashgiach’s problem or the Rav hamachshir’s? I’ve heard of cases where the mashgiach doesn’t know what’s flying (or crawling to be exact)

    “3) I would assume a housewife would know how to check and what to check or ask a shailoh, such as any other shaila as how to check for tolaim. Certainly for those who care about kashrus.“

    Obviously you’ve never seen bugs in produce and don’t go shopping and see what people buy in KOSHER grocery stores

    “Even if according to them he had not “started a process” they would still say he’s Mashiach!”

    That’s true probably but currently that isn’t the reality at this time and they can only be disproven based on what their claim is

    Their claim is that there isn’t anyone in recent history that started the process and my claim is why does one have to go to recent history, go back to bar kamtza or chizkiyahu

    Menachem,

    “Bar Kochba was after the churban, and he waged a war to return Eretz Yisrael to the Jews, which seems to be “part of the process”. What did yoshke – who was in the times of the Beis Hamikdash – do to start the process?

    yankel berel writes that yoshke allegedly claimed that he was the messiah. But that doesn’t seem to me as being part of the process. If anyone today would claim to be Mashiach and not do anything other than that, I don’t believe you would say that he had started the process.“

    Arso,

    My question from bar kochba was according to Lubavitch “starting a process” makes someone a candidate for moshiach if that’s the case bar kochba has as much of a chance as the Rebbe of being moshiach

    “I have no idea what the Ramban thought or understood. What I do know, however, is that you can’t draw a definite conclusion from his supposed thoughts – as you seem to – that he differentiated between Daniel and any else who had died because Daniel had not started the process.

    And by the way, how did yoshke start the process other than by supposedly saying that he was the king of the Jews, if he in fact said it?“

    Arso,

    You know bar kochba also “started the process”

    I accept your answers to my previous question

    Another question

    יעקב not dying is considered a נס (especially since someone can’t survive without air)

    Hashem only makes a נס if there’s a specific reason for it, Hashem wouldn’t split the yam suf if בני ישראל didn’t have to cross it

    What’s the reason for this נס?

    Someone in my shul (a rebbe) says the passuk of כלי ועצם ידי isn’t going on war and is going on a persons work in the field

    Additionally

    Doesn’t it say Hashem doesn’t affix His name to a person while he’s alive? (Hashem said to Moshe “אלקי אביך” and the midrash says that’s how Moshe knew he passed away) yet Hashem says אלקי יעקב

    Menachem,

    I would like to ask you a question (according to Rashi et al in the plain and pashut sense)

    We say תורה צוה לנו משה מורשה קהילת יעקב the word מורשה (according what I heard at least) is that it means inheritance (and because we say קהילת יעקב it’s understood from יעקב) how can an alive person give over an inheritance, inheritance is only done after death?
