Shabbos Umbrella
Micha Berger: Shabbos Umbrella: RGS's daily vort today posted a link to an article by Eretz Chemdah which described a design for an umbrella that could be opened on Shabbos.

What is a Shuk

He found them in a marketplace? Who does Unqelus believe were conducting business there? Chodesh Tov! Tir'u baTov! […]
bechira?
Micha Berger: bechira?: [...] I emphasized the onesh for the past decisions that lowered one's nequdas habechirah to the point where the decision doesn't cross one's mind. I emphasized commission, rather than than omission. And I gave a line of reasoning to buttress that emphasis: Someone who isn't guilty of lowering […]
understanding tosafot
Akiva Miller: understanding tosafot: . R' Joel Rich wrote: [...] I do not get that idea at ANY level. How can an inability to fully understand something be a MORAL failure?

Micha Berger: Can I make Kiddush or Havdalah on a cup of coffee or tea?: [...] The AhS refers to "teih matoq", whereas in other places he does talk about "teih" without the "matoq". In 89:23 he allows drking tea before Shacharis, and notes that some prohibited drinking it with sugar, but he didn't understand […]
The Difference Between Davening and Learning
Prof. L. Levine: The Difference Between Davening and Learning: The following is from page 38 of Rabbi Berel Wein's book Patterns in Jewish History. "A great sage once remarked that when we pray, we speak to G-d. When we study Torah, G-d, as it were, speaks to us." I believe that we would all benefit […]
The Difference Between Davening and Learning
Micha Berger: The Difference Between Davening and Learning: [...] RYBS described the siddur as a project that was begun by Anshei Keneses haGdolah because as we lost nevu'ah, we needed a new way to maintain the dialog with the Almighty. Chodesh Tov! Tir'u baTov! -Micha
2 gemaras
Micha Berger: 2 gemaras: [...] I don't see how you make the deduction. The reavtions are topical -- the loss of qorbanos and nesachim in Hashem's house caused a negative reaction toward enjoying meat and wine in our own. Whereas not being able to keep mitzvos critical to raising children to be observant led […]
