The Merit of Good Motivation

By |2018-03-25T22:14:21+03:00September 18th, 2015|Categories: Rav's Blog|Tags: , , , |0 Comments

The Gemora (Yoma 86b) tells us that the power of teshuva does not always achieve the same results. If a person did a sin intentionally (b’mazid) and then repented out of fear of G-d, the sin is downgraded to the level of an unintentional infraction. If, however, he repented out of love, then the sin [...]

הכל הולך אהרי המחשבה

By |2015-09-18T13:53:57+03:00September 18th, 2015|Categories: Rav's Blog|Tags: , , , |0 Comments

הגמרא במסכת יומא (פו:) מלמדת אותנו שתשובה אינה תמיד מביאה לנו את אותם תוצאות. החוטא במתכוין (במזיד) ושב מיראה תשובתו מועילה להחשיב את חטאו כמעשה שוגג. אבל, אומרת הגמרא, אותו אדם ואותו חטא, ששב מאהבה – מעשיו מעכשיו ייחשבו כזכויות. המושג מוכר, אבל ההגיון מאחריו תמוה – הרי בשני המקרים החוטא שב בפועל עד קצה [...]

A Breath of Fresh Air

אֲדון עולָם אֲשֶׁר מָלַךְ. בְּטֶרֶם כָּל יְצִיר נִבְרָא Master of the universe, who reigned before any form was created. This Tefillah which depicts the grandeur of HaKadosh Baruch Hu’s rule, after a little thought seems quite odd. We are familiar with the idea of a kingdom, and the king always has subjects. How can it [...]

שאיפה להתחדשות

”אֲדון עולָם אֲשֶׁר מָלַךְ. בְּטֶרֶם כָּל יְצִיר נִבְרָא:“ תפילה זו, שבמבט ראשון משקפת את עוצמתה והדרה של מלכות שמים, במבט שני, מאתגרת אותנו. כולנו מבינים את המושג של מלכות, ובכדי למלוך צריכים אזרחים שיהיו נתונים לסמכותו של המלך. איך ייתכן שהקב"ה מלך לפני בריאת אזרחיו ? השל"ה הקדוש, ואחרים, מסבירים ש"מלך" הוא לא רק תיאור תפקידו [...]

The First Point

By |2018-03-25T22:14:28+03:00September 3rd, 2015|Categories: Rav's Blog|Tags: , |0 Comments

Chazal tell us that when the farmers bringing the bikurim would pass by, the craftsmen in the cities would stop their work in honor of those involved in this mitzvah. The Alshich asks what is so significant in particular about this mitzvah, that Chazal thought it was necessary to mandate honoring those involved? To answer this he [...]
