Your suggestion that the COHEN GADOL'S prayers should produce the desired result - but we know that what we desire is not always for our best. Since we cannot fathom the mind of G-D, then how do we know that what was prayed for, is actually good?:
There is a debate among the Chakhamim whether the Kohanim are the shalichim (emissaries) of Hashem or of the people. They conclude that the Kohanim are Hashem’s emissaries. Perhaps this applies to their prayers as well as their blessings and every other part of their ‘Avodah. There is a famous Gemara in which Rabbi Yishma’el, who was the Kohen Haggadol, reports to the Rabbanim to content of Hashem’s own “prayer” (to Himself, of course): “May it be My will before Me, that My attribute of mercy should prevail over My attribute of justice.”
Of course Hashem is infinitely above His emissaries, but He has set things up in such a way that the blessings of a Kohen are in general positive, powerful, and effectual.
Maybe the TIKUN during these three weeks has more to do with treating each other RESPECTFULLY, and realizing that we can learn something SIGNIFICANT from everyone - rather than what we have been practicing up until now! This goes a long way to counteracting the JUSTIFIED anger and hatred aroused when we do the opposite.
I was doing Qi-Gong for 5 years, the school that I went to called Ren-xue. They have nothing to do with religion, but they teach a lot about our patterns of behavior/perception that make us miserable/anxious/angry. At some point 3- 4 months ago I understood that most of their teaching I can find in Judaism. I started to listen to your shiurim and I found striking similarities between your and their teaching. Moreover, Ren Xue teacheng helps me to understand yours. When you talk about תאווה, קינא, כבוד, they talk about lack of joy, self interest and self identity. They talk about totality of life, as you talk about השפעה of studying Tora to fashion in Paris. They also talk how to replace self- interest and self-identity patterns with better patterns and how it can help with תיקון האולם.
Recorded vs live. I believe the hallacha is not to listen to live music with instruments. Recordings are rabbinically discouraged but may not be avoidable in certain instances. Acapella is acceptable
I find what helps is to not watch the news and to join a daily lesson like Nach Yomi where everything that is happening today has been described and now you see it unfold before your eyes. My point is that the more we take from the popular culture, the more pain and negativity we absorb. I'm not a seriously educated person, I'm only speaking from my own experience.
I stopped being worried, because the one in me is mighty, and he is the one who fortifies: because the Fortress of the Lord of Jacob lies in the Law of Hashem through Ha-Mashiaj 😂
BS'D , May G-d Bless and protect our President Donald J Trump, this man has seen and experienced the darkest side of humanity! But BH' knows how to navigate out of it successfully, Rabbi people want to fight against Palestine, but on a spiritual reality, families and loved ones think of each other like this, treat one another like this, here is the reality we can change! It is inside us !
With all due respect, kvod harav, I think perhaps the rav is not understanding the meaning of Make America Great Again. He doesn't mean prosperous in the material sense (of course that's part of it, and without being prosperous, she can't be strong), but I think that what you're saying is exactly what President Trump means. There's so much behind that phrase. You can see it in every speech he gives, he lists a whole bunch of things that he wants to do that is encapsulated in that phrase. One of those being to be a leader once again on the global stage for goodness, morality, truth and a recognition that we are ultimately under the control of a higher power and He wants us all to be a force for good in the world. President Trump recognizes that that can only happen when America leads with strength and moral clarity. In all fairness, I don't think he "gets it wrong" at all with the concept of Make America Great Again". Shabbat shalom
America IS the promise land. Not in historical sense but the last country on Earth where freedom truly exists. America was founded on Judeo-Christian values 🇺🇸🇵🇷🇮🇱
“Mark Twain,” I believe, refers to a measure of the water as being two fathoms deep. The river depth needs to be measured to make sure that the riverboat doesn’t go aground, so a leadsman has to measure the depth and call it out. Two fathoms or twelve feet was enough depth for such a boat to negotiate the river safely (Wikipedia).
but how can you ask a person 1ith a moral reputation of immoral to ask our world? Please!!! This is a dangerous opinion..Hashem chose Trump? How do you know?????
God saved trump but not the helicopter- God will also save the Jews that seek Him and He will save Israel because Messiah is going to rule the nations from Jerusalem 🙏🏻
As Isaiah prophesied, Gd will make the Nations to Serve and go by His Chosen Priestly People's Leadership, the wealth of the Nations will be given to them and the Nations who refuse shall PERISH, just as He will make the children of their Oppressors go to them BENT OVER, just as He will make those who have Despised His Firstborn Son, HIS Chosen Servant, His High Holy Ones to PROSTRATE THEMSELVES at the soles of their feet. As King David foretold, Gd will Crush Kings on the day of His Wrath, HE will Execute Justice upon the Nations into a heap of corpses, for HE warned the Nations/Gentiles long ago that if you come against HIS Chosen, HE will come against YOU, all in His timing.
The Moshiach of the Bible is King David's progeny, a mortal man of flesh and blood who Isaiah tells comes at the End of the Days and will be ANIMATED BY THE FEAR OF THE LRD!
Bless you Rabbi, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN mean cut out all this ungodly nonsense. Our Righteousness comes only from God. It’s only Him that can create a work in each of us to change and become like Him. America was founded on religious freedom. Our forefathers didn’t want to be forced into a religion so they put in our constitution separation of church and state, meaning the state government can’t force a religion on us like the King of England did. Protestant Christians were being persecuted and killed or forced to convert to Catholic religion. America is a JUDEO CHRISTIAN country. Only God could show mercy on America and change the ungodliness going on. It’s not about being rich bc every American has the chance for upward mobility. It’s the American dream that’s been taken from us by biden and his evil globalist. We’re in the end times Rabbi, and America is in the way of Gods perfect plan for Israel and humanity. Trump can’t save us only Messiah can save us. Israel 🇮🇱 is the world’s watch clock for Gods timeline. I’m an American and I’m not watching America for Gods word to be fulfilled. I’m looking at Israel. It’s ALL EYES IN ISRAEL 🇮🇱! Gods chosen people who He revealed Himself through. The only righteousness comes through Yeshua Messiah and He’s coming back to Israel not America. I want Messiah not Trump! I want the Kingdom of God not America 🇺🇸. I believe Gods judgement is coming on America for the sins of the people. If only the people could pray like Daniel did then maybe just maybe God would show mercy and give us more time for our children to turn around. Blessings and Shalom to you Rabbi.
I'm not a Chinese noahide, but I'm a Chinese-speaking New Yorker converting to Judaism haha I know a few Chinese who converted, one recently got married boruch hashem
