- [Avodah] tachanun/chatan October 23, 2025In Avodah V43n63, RJIR asked, "...why the focus on bet hachatan (like bet haavel) and not just in his presence? Is there a higher degree of joy there?" As can be seen from BT Sukah 25b , it's not just about the *chasan* -- it's about him and the *kalla* being together under the *chuppa*; […]
- [Avodah] tachanun/chatan October 22, 2025. R' Joel Rich asked: > S"A O"C 131:4 states "nahagu shelo lipol al pneichem ... bbeit > hachatan." Does nahagu imply amcha did this and the rabbis didn?t > resist? Isn't that how ALL minhagim get started? In fact, my understanding is that the main difference between minhagim and d'rabanans is that if it […]

- [Avodah] new moon October 22, 2025Do we believe that moshe rabbeinu and/or shlomo hamelech did not know how to calculate when the new moon would appear (as Hillel II established)? KT Joel Rich
- [Avodah] tachanun/chatan October 22, 2025S?A O?C 131:4 states ?nahagu shelo lipol al pneichem ? bbeit hachatan.? Does nahagu imply amcha did this and the rabbis didn?t resist? Even though tachanun was a rshut (maybe not now) why would one want not to take advantage tosay it? Also, why the focus on bet hachatan (like bet haavel) and not just […]

- [Avodah] sefer torah October 1, 2025The S?A in O?C 149 discusses the procedures for returning the sefer torah after kriat hatora but in O?C 134 he seems to assume it?s already out in discussing kriat hatora (thus no procedures for taking out). Any ideas why? GCT Joel Rich
- [Avodah] yom tov sheini September 25, 2025When rabbis discuss in a public shiur (vs in yeshiva) the need to observe yom tov sheini shel galiyot ISTM I often hear ?hizharu bminhag avoteichem byadeichem? but not the follow on ?zimnin dgazra hamalchut gzeira vati lkilkulei? (rashi ? you?ll forget how to do the calendar calculation and mess it up). Is this a […]
- [Avodah] Vchen September 25, 2025The rambam uses the expression ?vchen? thousands of times in the yad. Any insights as to what goes before vchen and what goes after and why? (eg avel 14:1 listing bikur cholim, hachnasat kala ?and then saying vchen to gladden the kala and chatan). GCT Joel Rich
