December 27, 2019 12:04 am at 12:04 am in reply to: shalom mordechai is OUT…..BARUCH HASHEM! Its Zos Chanukah #1814639JosephParticipant
No one will ever forget what they were doing the moment they heard the Zos Chanukah neis two years ago of the completely unexpected very early release of the Tzadik Rav Sholom Mordechai Rubadhkin.
JosephParticipantZos Chanukah is a day full of nissim.
No one will ever forget the neis of Zos Chanukah just two years say with the tzadik Reb Sholom Mordechai.
December 25, 2019 4:33 pm at 4:33 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1814212JosephParticipantThe President of the United States, the Honorable Donald John Trump, has enacted an executive order penalizing universities that tolerate anti-semitism.
JosephParticipantThe Honorable Donald John Trump, President of the United States of America, is an Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence on a level greater than any of his predecessors over the last 200 years of American history.
JosephParticipantIt was very clear that Obama was far far worse than Trump, any way you slice and dice it. So unless you opposed Obama you’d have no grounds to oppose Trump.
JosephParticipantsqueak, I’m still waiting for your move.
JosephParticipantReminder!
December 24, 2019 11:05 pm at 11:05 pm in reply to: What are you doing this year on nittle nacht? #1813801JosephParticipantReb Eliezer, it’s a machlokes haposkim regarding the timing. But Rav Ovadia zt’l isn’t authoritative on this inyan. See the other thread (titled: “Nittel”) that I bumped and see the the second and third (or fourth) posts.
JosephParticipantReb Eliezer: Right. If the recipient is a specific Yid. Not if it is a general donation to whoever is next on the national registry.
JosephParticipantCTL, it is prohibited to remove any parts from a meis.
If it is for the express purpose of saving a specific Yid, there might be a heter.
JosephParticipantMeno, I’m shocked that you would make light of such a serious topic.
JosephParticipantMilhouse: What did I say about insurance? Are you referring to another thread?
JosephParticipantIf they have a live link, they generally use one of the large commercial services that specialize in it that doesn’t buffer and supports many simultaneous streams.
JosephParticipantHuju: Complying with halachos like tznius results in the RBS”O insuring less tragedies occur.
JosephParticipantSyag, what part of huju’s comment is factually incorrect?
JosephParticipantWas Aguda making one big international Siyum since the first cycle in 1938?
JosephParticipantIt’s become more of an issue over the last 11 years, especially since the advent of the smartphone which barely even existed when the OP posted. And he was correct even then when very very few people had smartphones, that was barely introduced a year before.
JosephParticipantInsuring all family members fully and completely follow the halachos of tznius.
JosephParticipantMilhouse: Please describe what a misnaged is/means.
December 19, 2019 4:52 pm at 4:52 pm in reply to: The Age Gap and the Musical Chairs of Shidduchim👴👶🏻🎶💺💺 #1812426JosephParticipantOr the Ashkenazim can follow the Sephardic and Teimani tradition of permitting plural marriages to solve this problem.
December 17, 2019 11:28 am at 11:28 am in reply to: Calling 311 on someone blocking your driveway is mesira #1811420JosephParticipantAvi, that Gemora is only speaking if he’s physically on your personal property (and even then it has severe limitations not permitting mesira and isn’t necessarily applicable altogether.)
In this case where the car is on PUBLIC PROPERTY, not your private property, that Gemora is completely inapplicable. And it is certainly mesira.
December 10, 2019 8:07 am at 8:07 am in reply to: Merchant Making Substantial Sale to Woman #1809623JosephParticipantRebbe Yid: You’re obligated to teach your sons Torah.
December 9, 2019 10:39 pm at 10:39 pm in reply to: Should bochurim in mesivta date/go into shidduchim? #1809531JosephParticipantYes.
JosephParticipantReb Eliezer, you’re 10 years late and a dollar short.
December 9, 2019 9:08 am at 9:08 am in reply to: Russian Olim advancing the leftist agenda in E”Y by embracing “Reform Judaism” #1809144JosephParticipantA large portion of the Russians in Israel are gentiles.
JosephParticipantWait… You haven’t got to know him well enough yet to be sure whether he’s a poster here?
JosephParticipantShopping: I’m mochel my shadchanus gelt. You can make a contribution to tzedaka, in any amount of your choosing, to the cause that is closest to your heart, in its stead.
December 8, 2019 10:43 pm at 10:43 pm in reply to: I realized my mistake, did you realize yours? #1808984JosephParticipantEveryone learned as a child that the Seforim Hakedoshim say that any mispronounced word in Tefila causes a deformed malach to be created that testifies against you acher meah v’esrim shana. Whereas correctly said Tefilos results in good malachim created that testify on your behalf.
December 8, 2019 9:10 pm at 9:10 pm in reply to: I realized my mistake, did you realize yours? #1808983JosephParticipantNechomo: Then why be careful altogether. If you say the wrong words in Tefila all your life it’s no biggie according to your pshat.
JosephParticipantMazal Tov!!!
December 8, 2019 3:53 pm at 3:53 pm in reply to: Inviting divorced women to your Shabbos table? #1808874JosephParticipantBillywee: That’s factually incorrect. They haven’t gotten more machmir in recent years.
December 8, 2019 11:11 am at 11:11 am in reply to: Inviting divorced women to your Shabbos table? #1808723JosephParticipantReb Eliezer: You make an interesting point regarding the Aruch Hashulchan and hair covering. The Aruch Hashulchan strongly denounces and decries the terrible machla of married women not covering their hair and says it must stop. Then he says since it is prevalent in some places therefore you can krias shma in front of her if you don’t look at her.
To take your example to this discussion, perhaps a small degree of immunity is obtained, but nevertheless it is very very wrong and must be stopped.
JosephParticipant“If the husband tries to claim that his wife stole the money from him, I doubt they will be married much longer.”
Interjection: The husband can be mochel her and not wish to (or even agree to if she wanted to) divorce her. She may have made an error in judgement and not realized in advance that her husband objects to spending his money on whatever it was.
JosephParticipantGHD: Actually a father gifting something to his married daughter is one of the few receipts of monetary value a married woman maintains in her possession rather than it instantly automatically becoming the property of her husband. Another example of such an exception is property she owned prior to marriage. But even in that latter example, whereas she still retains ownership of the underlying properties that she owned prior to marriage, any income generated from those properties (i.e. rent) automatically belongs to her husband. Any actual income she receives, for example from her employment, belongs to her husband.
JosephParticipantMilhouse: Looking at a standard tenoyim, I don’t see that phrase. Are you looking at a Chasidishe tenoyim (I think they’re different) or Litvish one or a Sefardic one? In any event, even if that term was inserted into a tenoyim, I fail to see how a tenoyim changes the Halachic default monetary obligations of a married couple for a lifetime. A tenoyim?
December 8, 2019 7:33 am at 7:33 am in reply to: Inviting divorced women to your Shabbos table? #1808605JosephParticipantPhilosopher: Every guest is always “of the opposite gender” of some of the host family’s family members, as almost every family has members of both genders.
December 8, 2019 7:32 am at 7:32 am in reply to: I realized my mistake, did you realize yours? #1808604JosephParticipantYou realize that years of the tefilos in question were never made, as you were telling Hashem the wrong thing.
December 7, 2019 10:32 pm at 10:32 pm in reply to: Merchant Making Substantial Sale to Woman #1808567JosephParticipantReb Eliezer: That’s only the case if the wife explicitly said איני נזונת ואיני עושה. And then it applies from that time forward but not retroactively. But in any event she had to have made that explicit statement; by halachic default that is never effective or assumed regardless of her income status. And as a practical reality, very very few wives (even high earners) say איני נזונת ואיני עושה.
December 7, 2019 10:31 pm at 10:31 pm in reply to: Merchant Making Substantial Sale to Woman #1808566JosephParticipantDY: Note that the title of this discussion refers to a “substantial sale”; that obviously refers to something “outside of their normal spending patterns”. Given that, the burden of proof would be on the merchant, considering that the money he was paid was rendered to him by a person other than the owner of said funds.
If Reuven goes to Shimon and purchases a Yacht with Levi’s money, when Levi comes demanding Shimon return to him the money Reuven gave him, he will have to do so unless Shimon can prove Reuven acted with Levi’s authorization. This high burden will be on the merchant’s shoulders.
And by the way, some shittos say even if the dollar figure in the transaction that the wife spent was a very nominal amount the merchant still bears the high burden of proof.
JosephParticipantA time for reflection.
December 1, 2019 5:22 pm at 5:22 pm in reply to: Russian Olim advancing the leftist agenda in E”Y by embracing “Reform Judaism” #1806465JosephParticipantA very large portion of the Russian “olim” are gentiles with some Jewish ancestry on their paternal side. Many (but not all; many others among them didn’t bother to) of these Russian gentiles in Israel underwent a fake “conversion” by the Zionist rabbanut that justified it in the name of “nationalism” even though they openly acknowledged that these Russian so-called converts never intended to keep a single Shabbos, before the Mikva water dried off them, or to ever stop fressing the Russian delicacy of bacon.
As a result of a Beis Din, notably headed by Av Beis Din Dayan Avrohom Sherman who is Daati Leumi and was a visiting scholar at YU, ruled that all those thousands of so-called “converts” never were halachicly converted and all remain gentiles.
As such, these non-Jewish Russians are a perfect fit for the Reform movement, which itself conducts phony conversions and recognizes paternal descent.
December 1, 2019 3:29 pm at 3:29 pm in reply to: Does a Divorce indicate a Family lacked Shalom Bayis? #1806294JosephParticipantiac, why do the old timers need to see the flag “bump” given that, as you point out, it is easy to tell as the replies are date stamped? Unless what you’re really trying to hint is that the old timers might not have yet put on their reading glasses or more ominously their mental acumen is not what it used to be.
JosephParticipantAzoiy: Specifically which Hungarian kehilos copied specifically which aspect of the BY model (that they originally didn’t have)?
JosephParticipantYes, we’ve read many headlines about the crime problem in Chicago. NYC is a much safer city both in general and in regards to antisemitism that involves violent assaults according to FBI statistics for each of the last 19 years.
JosephParticipantAzoiy: I see a much higher level of tznius and ehrlichkeit today among girls and women in Hungarian kehilos than from virtually any other frum demographic.
JosephParticipantSyag: Free free to move to the city that never sleeps with Torah and Chesed 24/7. No need to be jealous.
November 29, 2019 1:33 pm at 1:33 pm in reply to: Any of the 2020 DNC Presidential candidates 100% against abortion (aka murder)? #1805857JosephParticipantMeir: “Some even felt WHAT was a Brocha”? And “most gedolei hador” felt WHAT was not worth “making an issue over” and an issue WHERE?
JosephParticipantGHD: There are many girl’s schools in New York that do not even teach Rashi since it is Torah Shebal Peh.
JosephParticipantIt usually indicates a level of desperation for frum people to move there.
The reality is that the NY metro area not only has the largest concentration of Yidden in America, North America and the world, it actually has more frum Yidden (between NYC, Monsey, Lakewood and their surrounding areas) than ALL the rest of the United States and Canada combined.
JosephParticipantMake up your mind — do you want to deport illegal aliens together with their families in order to avoid family separation? Or do you want to deport illegal aliens without their US citizen children, thereby causing family separation? Those are the choices. Either way the illegal aliens must be deported. The illegal aliens should be given a choice whether they want to be detained and deported together with their family or separate.
