What is the malter liquor? What gets you drinker quicker?
What comes in bottles or in cans?
LF, I’m around(well, lurking mostly).
Probably many lurkers waiting for the fun threads. There seems to be a dire lack of lighthearted, relaxed threads around. Yes it’s the 3 weeks, yes the world is seemingly going downhill, but people need to chill and have some fun or else…that way lies madness.
Feelings on the announcement of the play?
Bump.
Kosher fandom? We really(NOT meant sarcastically) need one of those.
If someone could post the quotes from his(the Maharsha’s) hakdomos, I believe there was one in the hakdomo to his chiddushei aggados about ?? ??…, and in the hakdomo to chiddushei halocho about how one must put in as much effort into aggada as into halocho. Not necessarily a stirah With Rav shmuel hanagid though
Lichora, the maharsha was cholek on Rav shmuel hanagid’s view of aggado
And so?
Joseph beat me to it. I would highly recommend Ohr Somayach, it is a wonderful place
Googleman–that sounds very christian
Im interested
You started a new thread to post this.
Isnt it ironic?
Yeah, I meant :??
The two ????? ??????’s are “?????? ??? ?????” and “????? ????”.
None of them are that explicit (maybe the pirkei drebi eliezer)
The rosh could be talking with regards to ???? ??????, rashi says woman are bichlal am with regards to the pesukim. And either way, rashi can argue with the rosh.
The gemorrah in yevamos could have said that a single man is like a woman. Instead it says he is not a man. So he is not fullfilling all the requirements for being a man. And since he is still chayav in all the mitzvos he i not a woman.
Vogue–I would say it’s a fantastic ideal, but would have to agree with akuperma for the logistics.
Lior–Your point is? Yes, she was childless, and that was the reason for the divorce. That is a totally valid reason for a divorce, that is not an inherent fault in the person. There are many other totally valid reasons for divorce thaf are not because if an inherent fault in either side. You would turn someone down for a shidduch because there parents are divirced, without even knowing why?
There are many divorced people who still maintain a civil and cordial relationship, and are therefore able to bring their child(ren) up better than if they were married. Yes, better, because this way the child sees their parents having a goid relationship.
I agree that if the divorce wrecked the child, but that is now a problem in the child (whatever caused it set aside, this is a problem for marriage). The factt that the parents are divorced is immaterial. How the parent’s relationship affected the child is not immaterial, but to turn someone down simply based on their parents’ being divorced is disgusting.
What I’m trying to say is it’s based on how the kid is now, not base on the parents’ marital status. There are couples who constantly fight and een have physical abuse, and this affetcs a child terribly, while their are divorced couples whose children learnt the good lessons from their parents.
And people moan and weep about the shidduch crisis.
PAA
:??????? ??
One Rashi refers to ????? ????????? and ????? ???????. That says that they’re Jewish.
Another Rashi says “???? ???? ??”
That one solves at complicates your Rosh Chodesh idea, and might solve your syllogism.
Also, your proof from yevamos is lav davka– He is not a man, but that doesnt automatically make him a child. Maybe he isnt a man because his bones melted?
Or he(it?) is an androgonynous and is now married to him(it?)self
Baruch goldstein had lost his mind when he commited his heinous crime. Before hand, he (as a doctor) used o treat arabs for free. He simply snapped
He also held that all jews outside israel should carry a weapon. He had tremendous ahavas yisroel and was a talmid chachom. However, his ahavas yosroel blinded him into incredibly extreme views, and he completely disregarded the advice of the gedolim. Kahane may have had good ideas, but Rav Shach ztzl was right
That all arabs should be kicked out of israel. Their departure should be paid fpr and peaceful, and homes should be found for them elsewhere. He was very worried about the arab population reaching 1/3rd of israeli population, and then a civil war happening.
They were stolen by the communists.
I ate a shabbo meal by a family once, and the baalas habayis told me a story about when her sister moved to israel in the early day if he state. She had already bee. Living here for a while(they were raised frum) and her sister had to live on a kibbutz for two months before joining society. When the time came for her sister to leave, this woman went to pick her sister up. Her sister is sill in he middle of a meeting, so hes standing outside the room, and she hears them telling her sister “these religious people are all crazy, by now you should uderstand that! How can you go rejoin this ridiculous outdated religion, when we hve a state?”
So she barge into the room, and screams at the person telling her sister this “You say I am crazy? You say your grandparents were crazy?” And she takes her sister and they leave. She said it took a fee weeks to normalize her sister from the two months worth of brainwashing she had experienced, but, if her sister had c’v not staye frum after that, would you not call her a tinok shenishba?
Up to half his kingdom
Or perhaps this is merely a joke?
PAA–correct
????? ??? ??? ????? ?? ????? ?? ??? ?? ???? ???? ???????
PAA–??? ??? ??? ?? ?? ????? ?????? ??? ????? ???? ???? ????
Lol.
It says america and iran in the medrash?
In russia it’s considered impolite to smile at people you don’t know.
But, in other cultures it is considered good. Either way, kj chusid, i hope you live up to that, an greet everyone with panim yafos ?????? ???? ?????
Rayoflight, someoneme2– Im really sorry for all your nisyanos, may hashem help you (and all klal yosroel) with all issues, whatever they may be. I don’t really know either of you, but from this thread you both seem to be nice, thoughtful, intelligent, sensitive people. Don’t listen to people, they generally don’t think too much about how their words or actions will affect others. I’m sorry if my earlier comment callig for the closing of this thread was upsetting, I thought the thread title could definitely be interpreted multiple ways, and I have seen how people can be incredibly insensitive on the internet.
You are not defined by these disorders. Wherever you are on the spectrum, you are defined by who you are as a person, and how God views you, not how other people do. I have too many things I would like to say, and right now none of them are clear in my mind, but I will report back whem i have had a chance to think.
Hashem loves you, and from what I’ve seen of you, I like you too.
With moshiach and the worldwide revelation that brings, it would be utopia.
With the world as it is now, it would be majorly dystopian and probably ruin yiddishkeit for many people.
Amirah leakum is okay as long as you hint it
Tough one. One is a physical danger, the other is a spiritual danger. How do you say one is worse than another?
From a jewish p.o.v, it would seem that interne is worse, because it gets discussed amd banned much more frequently. However the Gedolim in quetion could be working under the assumption that it is so poshut that smoking is bad, that it doesn’t need to be said.
Lets leave it as any addiction (WHO’s definition of a addiction: a pathological relationship with a thing, person, or even that has life damaging consequences. Sam2, you’re not an internet addict 😉 ) is absolutely terrible.
I mean, whats worse, Heroin addiction or cigarette addiction?
Heroin kills 3000 people per year (in the UK) while cigarettes kill hundreds of thousands. It’s not our job to say which is worse. It’s our job to support and care for an addict however we can(NOT to enable him).
Left wing goes with liberalism. Liberalism goes with everyone being able to do what they want. When taken to an extreme a least. And if someone wants to be jewish, chas veshalom that hakacha should actually be followed! Its all about putting the peoples needs before God.
Amram was divorced.
Abaye was divorced.
Adam harishon(kind of) was divorced.
Avraham avinu (kind of) was divorced.
The Sridei Aish was divorced.
The Bais Halevi was divorced.
Moshe Rabeinu (also, kind of) was divorced.
Rav Tzadok Hakohen was divorced.
The Vilna Gaons daughter was divorced(on his orders).
Rav Malkiel Kotler(got the heter meah rabonim).
Just saying
Count me in the “dont fit in any box” group. Boxes are overrated.
I’m already saying it 😉
Would we be able to use it on shabbos?
” when the Gra finished his perush on shir hashirim. He was very happy and mesamayach in the simchas hatorah. He spoke about the chochmas hanegina, and about how without chochmas hanegina one cannot understand the sodos hatora and the taamei torah and the tikkunei zohar. Hebsaid there can be music pleasant enough to kill, and pleasant enough to raise the dead. He spoke about how many niggubim Moshe received at har sinai”
Write or wrong–how is your son doing?
I havent read through all 43 pages of this thread, but does he do drugs? If that is the case, an enormous step towards coming back is stopping that. Even if it is something as relatively innocuous as marijuana( I am not saying it is not bad, and in fact am very anti it, but comparatively) completely changes ones outlook. It is near impossible to take life seriously if one is using drugs.
Also, just an idea, show him some of the “cooler” sides of the torah. I.e, the juggler and the king, Maharal’s beer hagola. Seeing torah as something enjoyable can really change it around completely. This obviously depends on his personality type, what he is into intellectualy, and if he is even willing to read something “jewish”.
Also, I know this has definitely been said multiple times, and it is obvious from here that you are a loving, caring parent, but he needs to see that he can be open with you. Show him yourself as anything other than an authority figure.
I wish you the greatest hatzlocho, that Hashem should bless you abd your family, and should help your son through this patch of his life. I hope that what I said can be of some use to you, if not, just know that there are many of us thinking of and davening for you and your son. May we hear only besoros tovos.
Received
In the hakdama to peas hashulchan, one of the talmidei hagra tells a story about the gra, at one point he says about “how many songs Moshe Rabeinu rwveived at har sinai”
Will find the exact quote for you later. I cant really use hebrew books (on a cellphone, and its much more difficult on this) so I’ll just write it out
Ok, ok. I am mote of a lurker than a poster anyways
I didnt make the story 🙁
Voos–then you haven’t been spending much time with NK
Sam2–You are indeed correct. Sprry, it was from about a year ago, lukily I had a recording of it.
Me–“could the NK who go to Iran be considered rodfim?”
Answer–“They probably wouldnt be considered rodfim, but i like to think of them as shote’s so that they arent considered sonei yisroel, and so that I dont have bad feelings towards them. NO SANE PERSON WOULD ACT LIKE THEY DO”
As it happens, I asked daas torah about NK(particularly those who go to Iran and do stunts like that). The answer I got was “I hope that they are ?????, otherwise they might be ??????”.
Could someone post the gemorrah in bava basra where baca ben buta is defending the kings honor, even though it is the wicked hordos who killed the chachomim and poked out his eyes?
