Is this the exact same thing as Peshuto shel Mikra with another name?

[Leon Modena @arinohem]

Apparently the only apikorsus still not allowed is the state of Israel

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

TY, exactly what I was looking for, Ashreichem TC!
See also Rashi from yesterday's Torah reading 32:39 and 33:52-52.

@RabbiAYO Rashi writes it in Shemos 27:3:
וְעָשִׂ֤יתָ סִּֽירֹתָיו֙ לְדַשְּׁנ֔וֹ וְיָעָיו֙ וּמִזְרְקֹתָ֔יו וּמִזְלְגֹתָ֖יו וּמַחְתֹּתָ֑יו לְכׇל־כֵּלָ֖יו תַּעֲשֶׂ֥ה נְחֹֽשֶׁת׃

@mberger260 Exactly what I was looking for, TY! Ashreichem TC!

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

Any TC remember where Rashi al HaTorah discusses contronyms? I remember somewhere he gives a list, like a word for to empty can be also to fill, and other such examples.

BarukHashem.

[Yossi Farro @FarroYossi]

he spent his first $1 million endorsement check… in a single day.

That mistake led him to search for a financial advisor.

One after another, advisors pitched him on turning $40 million into $200 million by the time he was 23.

But Shaq remembered one lesson: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Then he met a humble Jewish businessman.

Instead of making flashy promises, he said:

“We’re going to buy bonds. We’re going to set up an S-corp for your family. We’re going to build wealth the right way.”

Shaq jokes, “Shalom, Baruch Hashem.”

That man became like a father figure to him, and together, they built a business empire worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Rav Mota Frank has whispered something that so many recognize as simple, clear and level headed.
And this is so unheard of these days that it’s making headlines.

@BacovcinAkiva Right, I'm asking accordingly to the other opinion, which is what the Posekim go with.

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

Holy Yiddin, looking for source help. No Tefillin on Shabbos or YT bec. Tefillin are an Ois\Sign.
But Torah only calls hand Tefillin an Ois. Yet, we put on neither hand nor head Teffilon. Any sources directly or indirectly address this?

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

@isaacson Please explain.

https://t.co/rKKuijXX5B My sister — YES, that incredible woman being harassed — is one of the best people I know. She has dedicated her life to making NYC better for EVERYONE. Charitable. Peaceful. Always the first to show up and lend a hand. The kind of New Yorker we’re proud to stand with — and the kind we NEED. And yes, a proud Jew as well!!!!

And then there’s this antisemitic guy, hiding behind a social media platform, using it to constantly tear down the greatest city in the world while targeting someone who actually serves it. Scroll his feed, it’s all negativity and attacks on the place millions of us love.

NYC deserves builders, not antiSemitic bullies. We stand with her. Am Yisrael Chai. #EndJewHatred

@DBashIdeas Of Course!

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

This Hakirah interesting, but hang in there for my lengthy response to R' Rakkefet in the upcoming issue!
R' Rakeffet saw it & graciously had kind words about it. See here around 7:40 mark

[David/Dovid Bashevkin @DBashIdeas]

Let’s start w Hakira highlights!

-I have a letter to the editor about the significance of the year 1840
-Enjoyed Stuart’s article on the halachic significance of archeology. Long winded but fun.
-Fascinating new teshuva from Rav Schachter on end of life issues
-Really nice sharing space with my friend Rav Yaakov Klein who has a really interesting article on Rebbe Nachman’s response to the existentialist of Camus.
-Whole issue is great esp. the history
-I love Zvi Leshem!!! Fabulous scholar.

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

Anyone but Netziv take note of this? Anyone have Peshat or Derash on this?

[minhagim @minhagim]

The Feinsteins just cannot be imitated; the Kaminetskys are similar.

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

@GilStudent @grok Who is doubting this?

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

Would be kinda nice if before you offer the critique, you would get basic facts like the name of the author of Michtav M'Eliyahu & the name of the Parsha right. Doesn't exactly inspire confidence that you know of what you speak.

[דעת אמת @DaatEmetOrgIL]

הרמב"ם טוען שבני ישראל לא שמעו את אלוהים במעמד הר סיני, כי לאלוהים אין קול. 🔇
הרב לופיאן מסביר שמותר לשקר באמונה אם זה מביא ל"רצון הבורא".
אז האם כל מה שסיפרו לנו על מתן תורה הוא פשוט "שקר חינוכי" אחד גדול?
ירון ידען חושף את מה שבישיבות לא רוצים שתדעו

@Mannye184 @Kanyna_Hora Is it real?

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

@pruzhaner TY! Why was it not mentioned until then?

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

Any idea why in Shemos 3:8 the land is described "Rechava" but not in verse 17? And why never again is "Rechava" mentioned even though flowing with Milk & Honey repeatedly is?

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

@ElyaReisman @minhagim @IMedaber @metajewtoday Yup.

[Yitzi Oratz @RabbiAYO]

Someone just sent this out. This legit? This is new?
