#4976 The Eternal Return
|
|
|
Q. Reading the current parshiot. If all of Klal Yisroel did Teshuva individually anyway, and the day (Yom Kippur) also provided atonement, even nowadays, why was it necessary, other than obeying Hashem's command, to have the Kohen Gadol provide Kapparah for all of them? Isn't it redundant?
A. There are many degrees to Teshuva and to the forgiveness it creates. As mentioned in Rambam (H. Teshuva), and many other sefarim, the process of true repentance and total elimination of the wrongs and sins committed is not simple at all.
Numerous stories and cases of Baalei Teshuva and Tzadikim also repenting clearly demonstrate how difficult and challenging the process can truly be. Therefore the redemption of the sins mentioned in the parsha must include every single step possible.

#4975 The Unlicenced Licensee
|
|
|
Q. Kevod Rabbenu how essential is it for the many of us that work constantly with computers and in the internet to subscribe and have programs that protect us from wrong and sinful advertisements.
Do we have to demand such programs even if we may loose our jobs. Maybe we can just relay in our religious feelings and devotion to G-d and His Torah, being similar as one does when walking in the street during summer?
I have seen many very religious people with phone connections to the internet that in our days don’t have any filters and they see them as unnecessary already, is that correct?
A. Although in practice that seems to be the case for many in our days including Rabbanim, that don’t use filters on their cellular phones anymore. However, Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that the accepted standards of filters should be maintained as much as possible.

#4974 The threefold Treasure
|
|
|
- Q. In Hebrew, Is there a connection between the 3-dot triangle vowel “segol” and the feminine expression "segulah" meaning treasure?
A. One may say that in a sense since a segol can be indeed turned on all sides in some forms of printing, it may carry a symbolic special value of the Jewish nation, that can maintain their entity and devotion to Hashem and His Torah in many different ways and situations.
Some maintain that it is a reference to the three basic qualities of the Jewish nation . Namely they are defined by three character traits. We are rachmanim, bayshanim, v’gomlei chasadim, (merciful, bashful, and generous).
These attributes stem from our forefathers. Avraham signified chesed. Yitzchak, the pillar of yiras Hashem represented bayshanut-humbleness and bashfulness. Yaakov was merciful, a combination of din and chesed. These three middoth were passed down to the Jewish Nation.
(Yevamoth 89a).

#4973 A Gentle Gentile Grace
|
|
|
- Q. See question 4964 above. If a Gentile is allowed to enter a shul, should he cover his head with a kapel. Can he also be given a translated Sidur or Chumash to read while there? Can he be given a Taalith?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that he can be offered to wear a kap’l but not a taalis to wear.

#4972 The First Matza on the Second Pesach
|
|
|
- Q. Dear Rov Shlit’a. This year (5784- 2024) the Second Pesach falls on this coming Wednesday May 22. For those of us that have the tradition of eating matza on that day, when should it be, in the night before or during the day or maybe on both?
A. On a similar question 160 we wrote:
“There are different traditions in regards to eating matza on Pesach Sheini, or the “Second Pesach,” originally given to those who were unable to bring the first sacrifice of Pesach.
There are those who eat matza at the time the korban would have been brought, which is in the afternoon of the fourteenth of Iyar, (Wednesday this year) following Avnei Nezer as quoted in Klei Chemda, Vaetchanan. This seems to be the prevalent costume according to Nitei Gavriel (Peasch 3, 57).
Others (Dvar Yehoshua 4, 5 et. al.) maintain that the proper time would be at night (Wednesday night this year),as that would have been the time for consuming the korban, in the days of the Bais Hamikdosh.
Some eat the matza at both occasions (Mikdash Yisroel, Shavuos p.141, mentions that this is the minhag of many Chasidim).
S’fas Emes, (Pesachim 89) offers a novel opinion; namely that the korban of Pesach Sheini, unlike the first, could be eaten also during the day.
And finally, there are the many who do not keep this minhag at all (Most S’fardim, Hagra in Maase Rav 181, and Lithuanian Jewry according to Rib’bos Ephraim 2,129).
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that one should maintain his own minhogim and traditions.”

#4971 Everithing About Bakol
|
|
|
- Q. Chazal say, according to some opinions, that Avrohom had a daughter called "Bakol". Who was her mother?
A. Talmud (Baba Basra 16b) a mentions a number of interpretations to the posuk “And Hashem blessed Abraham with everything [bakkol]” (Bereshis 24:1).
Rabbi Meir says: The blessing is that he did not have a daughter. Rabbi Yehuda says: On the contrary, the blessing was that he had a daughter. Others say: Abraham had a daughter and her name was Bakkol. Rabbi Elazar HaModa’i says: Abraham our forefather was so knowledgeable in astrology [itztagninut] that all the kings of the East and the West would come early to his door due to his wisdom.
This is the blessing of bakkol, that he possessed knowledge that everybody needed. Rabbi Shimon ben Yoḥai says: A precious stone hung around the neck of Abraham our forefather; any sick person who looked at it would immediately be healed.
Sefer Hagimatrios from Rabbi Yehuda Hachasid (94) writes that Bakkol was the daughter of Avraham and Sarah. Therefore, correctly he complied with the since the Mitzva of Peru U'revu with Sarah Imenu Horav Yonasan Eibshutz Zt’l in Tiferes Yonasan (Vayeira 21: 4) mentions that when the Pasuk mentions that Avraham Avinu circumcised his son, it adds the word ‘es’. And whenever the Torah says את it means that a twin was born.

#4970 Hard to Understand
|
|
|
- Q. Many Jewish leaders, when relating to the deaths of Gazan civilian Arabs, make the statement that every life lost is tragic and painful. Now, on the emotional side, the merciful side of a Jew, who is aware of the potential of life in any human being, cannot help but feel that way.
However, the last two verses of Kapitel 137 in Tehilim seem to indicate otherwise. Those two verses are:
“O Daughter of Babylon, who is destined to be plundered, praiseworthy is he who repays you your recompense that you have done to us. Praiseworthy is he who will take and dash your infants against the rock.”
If the one who punishes the women of our enemy and kills the children of our enemy is "praiseworthy" then it must be that we are happy with him, that we are happy with his achievement. Never is "Ashrei" used to refer to Hashem, so the punisher and killer here must be human. How could the punishment and killing of civilian women and children of Gaza be tragic and painful, if those that punish and kill them are praiseworthy for doing just that?
A. There could be another meaning. It could signify only a wish of mental imagery and potential vision, for our enemies to picture in their minds how they would feel if the cruelty and crimes they committed would happen to them.
However, as Horav Dovid Pam Shloit’a pointed out most meforshim interpret the posuk literaly.
Horav Yaakov Hirschman Shlit”a maintains that the posuk is not
expressing any wish or holy want at all, it is just mentioning the
desire of the evildoers themselves.

#4969 Don’t Forget Not To Write
|
|
|
- Q. Kevod Rabi Shlit’a. If one sends a phone email to his son to remind him to count Sefira, can he himself count that night with a brocho or has he already complied?
A. Poskim disagree if one complies the counting of Sefira by writing. Many maintain that one does not and writing is different than saying similar to just thinking the date, since the Torah mentioned “Usfartem” and that is usually done verbally. (Teshuvos RavA’ Eiger 29 – 32, Chassam Sofer 6: 19, Ksav Sofer Y.D. 106, Aruch Hashulchan 9, and others) since they compare it to one that writes the Shema or Tefilos. After all he also did not have in mind to comply.
On a similar question (785) we wrote:
Q. During sefira I twitter a reminder in the early night to the members of our college students group to count sefira. It has happened that I have forgotten to count myself later on when I miss mariv in shul. Would I be yotze just with the writing of that twitter on my i-phone, if I intended that in case I forget later that should count?
A. Poskim disagree if writing is tantamount to speaking in regards to counting sefira. Kol Eliahu (30), Ksav Sofer (Y.D. 106) quoting Chasam Sofer, rule that even if writing is not generally equal to talking, in regards to counting sefira it is. Conversely, Birkei Yosef (489: 14), Maharia Asad (Y.D. 316), maintain the opposite. Even if writing is by and large considered like verbalizing, in sefira it is not since the Torah requests counting. (See also Teshuvos Rabi Akiva Eiger 29 and 30)
Since Poskim disagree, one who counted by writing should if able, count again articulating the count without a brocho, or someone else who has not yet counted should recite the brocho for him.
However if the day has passed, and he did not repeat verbally the count, Poskim maintain that he can still count the rest of the days with a brocho. The reason being that this situation constitutes a double doubt or sfek sfeko to be lenient. That is maybe the Halacha follows the opinion that after missing one day you have not lost the mitzvah, and even if you did, maybe writing is indeed the same as saying.(Mekadesh Yisroel – Sefirah 31, Mitzvas Sefiras Haome 44)
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit”a opinion is that although for many mitzvos and prohibitions the writing on a screen may be considered only temporary or even not writing at all, (See question 383 in this forum in regards to erasing Hashem’ name from a screen, see also question 465 and 466 in regards to e-readers) however, as far as sefira is concerned it is deemed to be writing and the ruling above would prevail. Therefore the person writing the twitter would be able to count the rest of the days with a brocho.

#4968 Not in my Book?
|
|
|
- Q. We see in the Kolel Toronto that sefarim are placed on boxes on the front of the entrance for people to take. Can one take some and give them as a present to a shul and so comply with the great mitzva that is tantamount to the writing of a SeferTorah?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that if the seforim offered are given following the tradition of a Sefer Torah donation to a shul, when usually the Sefer still belongs to the owner and is only given to the shul for the purpose of reading from it until the owner claims it back, it would indeed compare to the giving of a Sefer Torah for the primary owner. Yet, in such a case, the one collecting them may use them, but may not be able to give them away to others.
However, it is more likely that the seforim are a total donation for the one that needs them and will use them. And if he desires, since they are totally his, he may then proceed to give them to a shul following the tradition mentioned.
Horav Yaakov Hirschman Shlit”a also maintains that iy is more likely
that the donor just wants to give away completely the seforim he does
not need.

#4967 To The Top of The Tree
|
|
|
Q. You announced that there will be Birchas Hailonos on Shabbos. Does not the Ben Ish Chai and others rule not to allow Birchas Ilonos on Shabbos?
A. On question 4219 we were asked:
“Is it better to wait to recite the blessing on the new fruit of the blooming trees on Shabbos with all the family present and with more people?
On question 1708 we addressed the following similar questions: “Since the days of Nissan are over can you still say the bracha for blooming trees with Hashem’s name after Lag Baomer? Is it better to wait until Shabbath to recite it? Is it better to recite it with a minyan? Should one say it and have in mind all, as we do in kiddush?”
To what we answered: “On question 288 we wrote; This year, due to the earliness of Pesach, the blooming of trees at this latitude occurred very late on the Jewish calendar. . In regards to waiting until Shabbos on question 287 we wrote; Yalkut Yosef (Shabbos 3, 319,77) quotes some opinions that maintain that this brocho should not be recited on Shabbos either because by engaging one’s attention on the tree one might come to collect some fruit (Moed L’kol Chai 9), or by dint of a Cabalistic injunction on gathering “nitzoitzois” (spiritual sparks) from a tree on Shabbos (Kaf Hachaim 226, 4).
However most Poiskim disagree and permit reciting this brocho on Shabbos. (Yalkut Yosef ibid. – Nitei Gavriel, Pesach I, 6,7). Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit”a opinion is that you can wait until Shabbos (avoid contemplating the tree) and recite together with a larger group “b’rov am” and have it adjoined to the count of the hundred brochos.
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that although no minyan is required for reciting this brocho, since we always maintain that “Berov Am Haddras Melreh” or we honor of the King, when many are present, it would be preferred to have others join. However the Rov maintains that each one should recite his own brocho.”

#4966 The Total Eternal Tune
|
|
|
Q. Rov you mentioned recently (question 4960) that it is a very valuable to recite the complete Shira of Oz Yashir every day since Zohar says that it brings the forgiveness to all our sins. Does that actually mean to sing it with a tune?
A. On question 135 regarding reciting the Shira with joy during a time of Aveilus, we wrote: “Zohar (B’shalach and Terumah) and Midrash, quoted by many Poiskim, exalt the ones who recite Shiras Hayam with great joy, with detailed care, and with its cantillations.
They are considered as if they experienced themselves the Exodus of Mitzraim and Hashem saves them and forgives all their sins. (Pri Chodosh, Mishna Berura 53, et. al.)
On question 3114 regarding the Shira of women we wrote: Historically women sang the Shira as mentioned in Parshas Beshalach (15: 20,21) “Miriam, the prophetess, Aaron’s sister, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women came out after her with timbrels and with dances. And Miriam called out to them, Sing to Hashem.” It does seem to be that it was actual singing with a tune.
We also added that Should a man who came late to davening and omitted the Shira to be able to daven with the minyan, say the shira after davening with great simcha. Shulchan Aruch (O.H. 52) rules that one who missed Pesukei Dezimra before the Amida should recite them after. It is reasonable that he has to recite the Shira in a way similar to before.
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is similar.
Horav Yaakov Hirschman Shlit”a maintains that the shira above does
not have to be sung, since Shulchan Aruch (O.H. 51: 9) mentions only
that Mizmor Letodah has to be said in a song, since all other musical
chapters will be annuled in the future with the exception of that
Mizmor,

#4965 An Enlightening Shaila
|
|
|
Q. Can a bochur (unmarried one) light the Shabbos candles before the plag, daven Mincha and then after plag recite the brocho on the candles?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that one should not light Shabbos candles berfore plag. Rather one should daven an early Mincha in the afternoon and then procede to light Shabbos candles after plag and then go to shul to recite Kabbolas Shabbos.

#4964 A Gentle Shailah
|
|
|
Q. Is a Gentile permitted to pray in Schul?
A. Poskim write that the entrance of Gentiles to a shul should be avoided as much as possible (Yigal Yaakov O.H. 20, Piskei Teshuvos 151:6).
However, Yabia Omer Y.D. (3: 15) permits in need and when there is benefit, to let tourists enter a shul. Yet the Aron Hakodesh should not be opened for them to show the Sifrei Torah.
Similarly, Poskim permit the entrance of security guards, cleaning and maintenance crews as required.
They also permit the occasional address of political leaders for the benefit of the community and the keeping of Darkei Shalom and peace.

#4962 The Al-day Good Way of AI
|
|
|
|
- Q. Dear Rabbi. I have been reading your new technology and science shailot and I greatly appreciate your handling and keeping in touch of the constantly changing world we live in.
I have a question regarding my elderly father. He is connected and serviced by a AI computer that B’H basically and promptly takes care of many of his needs and contacts the family when necessary.
My question is regarding counting sefira. Can the AI read the sefira of the day and my father repeats the bracha and the counting with it word by word?
A. Indeed, Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit”a opinion is that if he repeats everything word by word, it is similar as reading it from a sidur and he complies with the mitzva, The same would apply to the Shema and other parts of davening. The computer has to be set to constantly follow up with his response and condition.

#4961 A Real Bigwig?
|
|
|
Q. As far as I know women are permitted to trim the hairs of their wigs during Sefira days. Does the same apply to men that wear a wig?
A. On question 101 regarding trimming and fixing a wig during the 3 weeks, we wrote:
“Nitei Gavriel (Bein Hametzorim 21,5) permits trimming and fixing a wig even when one is wearing it, until the beginning of the nine days.
(However, in his Bar Mitzva Seifer 22,21, he further permits the above for the mother of the Bar Mitzva bochur, before the week of Tisha B’av itself). Shevet Hakehosee (O.C. 150 ) seems to allow it at all times.
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit”a opinion is that it is permitted before the nine days begin.”
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that if a man is permitted to wear that wig as is common in our days, the same would apply.

#4960 The Most Splendid Daily Permited Song
|
|
|
Q. It is known that if one sings the shira of Oz Yashir said every day during Shacharis, Hashem will forgive his sins. Does that have to be the complete shira?
A. Indeed, the Zohar quoted by the Mishna Berura (51: 17) teaches that most important and essential principle.
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that one should indeed sing it complete. (without disturbing others).
It finishes at the verse “Hashem Imloch Leolam Vaed.

#4959 Most Beautiful Permitted Music?
|
|
|
- Q. Can one use during Sefira a music toy box that plays sweet beautiful child music that puts our baby to sleep? Our other kids greatly enjoy it and dance when it is played. Is that permitted?.
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that it is permitted since it is really indeed only toy music.

#4958 A Writing about Writing
|
|
|
Q. Rov. As per our call a few days ago: I contacted the big Printing House of the Jewish information and they told me that the shuls explained that they cannot accept my Gematria sefer because it has pasukim in it. Even though I comment out the name of Hashem please find out from Rav Miller Shlit”a what to do to get the printing house to agree to print for me.
A. Please get in touch with me and iy’H I will try to explain to you how to get around your predicament and be able to print your important Sefer.
The writing and printing of a Sefer on Torah topics is most important, since one can comply, following the opinion of Poskim, the most essential mitzva of writing a Sefer Torah itself (see introduction to my Responsa Sefer Minchas Aviv).

#4957 Have we Learned Already How to Count?
|
|
|
Q. We have a debate in our new created minyan as to which is the most correct way to count Sefira. Most mentioned that the use the most common counting by saying Laomer. Yet we have a small group that recites Baomer, What is the correct thing to do?
A. Indeed Poskim disagree at what is the correct nusach or tradition to use. Many Rishonim quote “Laomer” (Beer Heitev 8, Sheloh, Pri Megodim in Eishel Avrohom 5, Shaarei Torah 8, etc.).
Others quote Baomer (Rema 1, Taz 3, Eliahu Rabba 7, Shulchan Aruch Horav 7, Chayei Adam 131, Hagr’a, Mharam Shik, Chazon Ish, see Nitei Gavriel 32: 5).
ArtScoll sidurim on nusach Ashkenaz maintain Baomer while on nusach Sefarad quote Laomer.
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that one you should follow the tradition of the majority of the attendants.
