Mother’s were stay at home housewives,in the alte heim, who took care of the children full-time. I agree with GHD that this is the proper way today, too; as many Yiddishe families still practice.

1. Which rabbonim, specifically (names, please), have allegedly come out on the record to oppose the Trump peace plan?

2. What so-called “terrible ramifications” have the Camp David accords entailed?

3. Hagaon HaRav Eliezer Menachem Shach and Chacham Ovadia Yosef, among other Gedolei Yisroel, are on the record as supporting giving the Arabs land for peace.

Camp is definitely much safer than mass protests. If daily mass protests are permitted, then camp should definitely be opened.

The State of Israel doesn’t make mistakes, dear DY. They are simply the best in everything as they have the legacy of Herzl and Ben-Gurion protecting them; and are now led by the all-knowing all-powerful Bibi.

Can you share the pseudonyms of all your spouses?

Why don’t you call the Yeshiva to ask?

Mods, did my new thread which was recently approved disappear due to the edit I made (of a minor typographical fix), and the software automatically unapproving an edited post?

No, it disappeared due to my wondering why it went up in the first place. Waiting to work it out…

How is your communications with your husband? He may have simply never told you he signed up to participate on our forum here since he didn’t think you’d care.

Hagaon HaRav Avigdor Miller zt’l said that over 95% of divorced that occurred in the frum community were unnecessary and should not have happened.

Since Shavuos, are Chasunas being conducted in Boro Park, Williamsburg and Lakewood?

What limitations on their size are actually being adhered to?

What other limitations on dancing and other activities are in place?

Are they being conducted in the regular local Chasuna halls?

TakahM: How does divorce help if one of the spouses is beating the kids? It doesn’t. The divorce is between the spouses; both spouses remain parents of their children after divorce. Neither of them are divorced from their children.

We should call our Minyanim protests.

Floyd was an ex-con who resisted arrest. Once he resisted arrest he bore responsibility for what subsequently occurred to him by the police.

That said, it seems at first glance that the officer who pinned him down acted excessively. If so, that officer also bears some responsibility. Nevertheless, the officer had both the right and obligation to subdue Floyd, who was wrongly resisting.

So the question becomes how to break down responsibility for the terribly unfortunate result between Floyd and the officer holding him.

The other three officers bear absolutely no responsibility for what occurred. One of them, in fact, asked the officer pinning him to ease up. None of the three others ranked above the officer holding Floyd that they could have ordered him to let up.

The police should withdraw from the rioters neighborhood and declare them a no-policing-zone. Let them set up their own security. Everyone else will stay out of their neighborhoods.

Mazal Tov CTL & Mishpacha!!

Why couldn’t immediate family (only) dance with each other?

Probably RY23’s husband.

Netziv (Bereishis 1:27):

In the image of G-d all of nature in its entirety was included with in him. From the moment that it occurred in thought and speech that nature should be that way G-d was called Elokim, i.e. the G-d of Nature. And since all nature was included in man, he was thus in the image of Elokim. But this is only true for the elevated man as he was before the sin. And afterwards male and female He created them. This verse is not saying that gender was different in man from the other species, so this teaches us that they were in fact two creatures as I will explain later. And since the male of the human species is not comparable to the female as it states in Koheles( 7:28) I found one man out of a thousand but not among woman. In other words the elevated man is like one who is in the image of G-d and that is one man out of a thousand. In contrast amongst women, they are like the second man who has the name of man but not the spiritual level.

NyBochur: If I’m not mistaken, each TAG office has its own policy whether or not they charge.

I think Reb Chaim Dovid Zweibel should be appointed to the position once held by Reb Moshe Sherer in Agudas Yisroel.

After Rabbi Sherer was niftar the Novominsker Rebbe did double duty as an already existing member of the Moetzes to also take on Rabbi Sherer’s duties. That’s how the Rebbe assumed the title of Rosh Agudas Yisroel. The “rosh” referred to the lay leadership of Agudah, not of the Moetzes (where all members are on equal footing.)

Now that we lost both Rabbi Sherer and the Novominsker Rebbe, we should go back to the original system where the lay leadership was a separate position.

lot112: You cannot rely on him purposefully. And using his due to extenuating circumstances can’t be done more repeatedly.
