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 [...]

”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

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 [...]

היתרום לראשית

By |2015-09-03T17:23:58+03:00September 3rd, 2015|Categories: Rav's Blog|Tags: , |0 Comments

מובא בחז"ל שכל בעלי המלאכה בירושלים היו משביתים את עבודתם לכבוד החקלאים העולים עם ביכוריהם בזמן שהם עברו בעיר. רבינו האלשיך שואל – מה מיוחד במצות ביכורים עד כדי כך שחז"ל הדגישו את החובה לכבד את עושיה (במחיר זמן מלאכה)? בתור תשובה, האלשיך מצטט ממדרש בראשית רבה. המדרש דורש את המילים "בראשית ברא" במובן שבשביל [...]

וְיָתֵד תִּהְיֶה לְךָ, עַל-אֲזֵנֶךָ; וְהָיָה, בְּשִׁבְתְּךָ חוּץ, וְחָפַרְתָּה בָהּ, וְשַׁבְתָּ וְכִסִּיתָ אֶת-צֵאָתֶךָ. And thou shalt have a paddle among thy weapons; and it shall be, when thou sittest down abroad, thou shalt dig therewith, and shalt turn back and cover that which cometh from thee. (Devarim 23:14) The pasuk says that a person has to [...]
