Yabia OmerParticipant
I didn’t say follow their Minhagim. But you could be Mekabel their Torah, etc. When I say mekabel I mean learn from it as a way to explain your horizons, not necessarily change who you are. Regarding whose is the most right, Yavo Eliyahu….
But it’s known that several groups have a direct chain to the Geonim, who have a direct chain to the Amoraim. So maybe they are the most authentic.
Yabia OmerParticipantI once knew a fellow who didn’t learn the classic stuff on Shavuos night but rather a preset limud based on Kabbalah.
Yabia OmerParticipantIn many respects, Satmar succeeded beautifully in creating a Shtetl, albeit with American flavor. I don’t agree with everything they do but they were Paru vayishretzu vayirbu bimod meod.
Yabia OmerParticipantAvira, the Teimanim contravene our Mesorah?? Shomu Shamayim.
Yabia OmerParticipantI think Minchas Chinuch is too much for what I am looking for.

Yabia OmerParticipantRE, historically yes. But now for all intents and purposes they follow the SA.
But we have a lot to learn from acheinu hateimanim. If we had less gaava we would be mekabel from them.
Yabia OmerParticipantRabban Gamliel vs. Rabbi Elazar ben Azaryah.
Yabia OmerParticipantWasn’t his son R Elazar?
Yabia OmerParticipantSo basically everyone with all their “Yeshiva” chochma can’t remind which Sefer is better?
Yabia OmerParticipantIt means he was in a cave for 13 years.

Yabia OmerParticipantMost Israelis have an affinity to Yiddishkeit, so what are you talking about?

Yabia OmerParticipantWhat is Fressing?

Yabia OmerParticipantThe short answer is, unfortunately, yes. This happened in England a thousand years ago, in Spain during the Inquisition, the Holocaust. Ein chadash tachas hashemesh.
Yabia OmerParticipantThat may be so, but we’re talking about what people refer to it now.

Yabia OmerParticipant“this year pesach will be on shabbos
next year thursday

year after that sunday.”I don’t get it. What’s the interesting phenomenon?
Yabia OmerParticipantThe bulk of one’s learning should be YWN, followed by a decent dose of VIN. Then, a sprinkle of Matzav to mashlim the day.
Yabia OmerParticipantThis is what is pressing for yidden on Zos Chanukah 5782??
Yabia OmerParticipantKiddush and Chilul Hashem has a specific definition but also has a looser definition. Like the word Mitzvah. Can mean a commandment (specific) or can mean a good deed or anything else that is positive (looser). So same thing with Kiddush and Chilul
Yabia OmerParticipantTel Aviv is still holier than Brooklyn, or wherever akuperma lives.
Yabia OmerParticipantBoruchBrown is correct. This extreme perishus is recent.
Yabia OmerParticipantYou’re 100% correct.
Yabia OmerParticipantThe only Levush that matters is R’ Mordechai Yaffe
December 1, 2021 4:49 pm at 4:49 pm in reply to: How to end a first date when there’s no shadchan #2036811Yabia OmerParticipantDon’t listen to UJM. I’m willing to bet that most CR users’ parents met without a Shadchan.
Yabia OmerParticipantHats and Coats are what Jews need to focus on in 2021? For gosh sakes.
Yabia OmerParticipantTake husband’s name. After 120 it’s not like your last name will be passed in anyway to your kids so what’s the point?
Yabia OmerParticipantI think it was a small shot glass.
Yabia OmerParticipantI used to eat by someone who did that lechatchila on Kiddush on Shabbos day. Never understood the inyan.

November 28, 2021 7:21 pm at 7:21 pm in reply to: Poasters of YWN Coffee Room- Are you employed? #2035330Yabia OmerParticipantWhy can’t Jews smell in 2021?
Yabia OmerParticipantAAQ thank you! Perhaps my post was rough. But rather than having an open ear, most of you had a knee jerk reaction. Why not listen for once?
Yabia OmerParticipantI am going to write what a multitude of rabbis (European, no less) mentioned as being important communal needs in their writings:
The poor, the sick, widows, burial needs, etc.None of them mentioned lace sheitels or the length (or presence at all) of peyos.
Yabia OmerParticipant“Ashkenazic” is not a race.

Yabia OmerParticipantWho said that Y.O. is even Sephardic??
Yabia OmerParticipantLace sheitels are what Jews should be concerned about in 2021?
Yabia OmerParticipantNo one is addressing the very real concern of divisions and neurosis.
Yabia OmerParticipantIsraelis are healthier by most metrics and live longer than Americans.
Yabia OmerParticipantI don’t know what “Gedolim” you’re talking about or what “Daas Torah”. My mesorah is that Tanach was learned throughout life and my ancestors all had it at their fingertips. And who says that Ruach Chachamim is nocha with what Smerel says? And since when is Brisk a Raya for anything?
