Rav Moshe Sternbuch asked, why did Balak become afraid specifically from the Jew beating the Emorim ? They had done much greater things before this which should have caused Balak to become afraid of them, like obliterating the Mitzrim or Kriyat Yam Suf . The Rabbi quoted from the Kli Yakar who answered, what Yirsrael did to the Emorim is referring to a different episode, namely when Yaakov Avinu, whose name is also Yisrael, defeated the Emorim with his tefilot back in parashat Vayechi , before Yetziat Mitzrayim . Balak said to himself, if the Jews can take down an entire nation using their prayers, how are we going to stand up to them? This is why he hired Bilaam, who also had powers with his mouth. Later on in the parasha , when Bilaam blessed the Jewish People, he was in awe of how they wake up every morning like lions to grab mitzvot , putting on tallit and tefillin and reciting keriyat shema . These are our greatest treasures. The more we use the power of our mouths for good, the more blessing will come down from Hashem. Rabbi Elimelech Biderman related a story that a rabbi from New York told him. The rabbi said this past year around Hanukah time, he read an amazing story about an older boy who was having a lot of difficulty finding his zivug. Baruch Hashem, this year, that boy got engaged on Thursday night, the 11 th of Kislev. At his engagement, his younger ten year old brother showed him a piece of paper which had written on it, Today the 21 st of Cheshvan, year 5781, Saturday night, I, so and so, accept upon myself to say kriyat shema looking inside the siddur and having kavana in each word in the merit that my brother gets engaged by the 11 th of Kislev . And that's exactly what happened. He said shema every night the way he's supposed to and his brother got engaged on the 11 th of Kislev. The rabbi in New York got so excited after reading this story, he related it to his own family at the Shabbat table that week. He also had an older son not married and he also has a ten year old son. When his ten year old heard that story, he accepted upon himself on Rosh Chodesh Shevat the same kabbala . He wrote on a piece of paper, For 30 days, I will say kriyat shema al hamita from a siddur the right way in the zechut that my brother gets engaged. On the 30 th night, that young boy fell asleep without saying shema . The next morning, when he realized what happened, he started to cry. He told his father that he took on this kabbala and did it for 29 days in a row but then missed it last night. His father told him not to worry, it didn't hurt his kabbala . He said, "You accepted 30 days and you did 29 of them." The father then told his son to do the last day that night and it will still count. Amazingly, the very next day, on the 2 nd of Adar, 31 days from the time this boy made his kabbala , which was also the day he finished his 30 days, his brother got engaged. We have tremendous powers with our mouths. We can say kind words to others, we can read Tehillim , we can learn Torah, we can pray to Hashem. These are our strengths. This is what Balak feared, and this is what Bilaam knew was our secret. Let us utilize these precious gifts that Hashem gave us and do them all the right way.
Nehemiah 1:1-11 NLT 1 These are the memoirs of Nehemiah son of Hacaliah. Nehemiah's Concern for Jerusalem In late autumn, in the month of Kislev, in the twentieth year of King Artaxerxes' reign, I was at the fortress of Susa. 2 Hanani, one of my brothers, came to visit me with some other men who had just arrived from Judah. I asked them about the Jews who had returned there from captivity and about how things were going in Jerusalem.3 They said to me, “Things are not going well for those who returned to the province of Judah. They are in great trouble and disgrace. The wall of Jerusalem has been torn down, and the gates have been destroyed by fire.”4 When I heard this, I sat down and wept. In fact, for days I mourned, fasted, and prayed to the God of heaven. 5 Then I said,“O Lord, God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps his covenant of unfailing love with those who love him and obey his commands, 6 listen to my prayer! Look down and see me praying night and day for your people Israel. I confess that we have sinned against you. Yes, even my own family and I have sinned! 7 We have sinned terribly by not obeying the commands, decrees, and regulations that you gave us through your servant Moses.8 “Please remember what you told your servant Moses: ‘If you are unfaithful to me, I will scatter you among the nations. 9 But if you return to me and obey my commands and live by them, then even if you are exiled to the ends of the earth, I will bring you back to the place I have chosen for my name to be honored.'10 “The people you rescued by your great power and strong hand are your servants. 11 O Lord, please hear my prayer! Listen to the prayers of those of us who delight in honoring you. Please grant me success today by making the king favorable to me. Put it into his heart to be kind to me.” In those days I was the king's cup-bearer.

The obligation to rebuke one's fellow (as it says in parashas Kedoshim) doesn't apply only to Rabbonim etc., but to every Jew. Certainly someone who employs another Jew in his business, thus assisting him with his material livelihood, is especially obligated to utilize the influence he has over him to help him in a pleasant manner draw closer to Yiddishkeit etc., and “action is the main thing.” One must exert himself in this effort “even up to one hundred times,” and in the end, he will succeed.Excerpt from sichah of Motzaei Shabbos Parashas Vayishlach, 19 Kislev 5733.

Nehemiah 1:1-4 NIVNehemiah's Prayer1 The words of Nehemiah son of Hakaliah:In the month of Kislev in the twentieth year, while I was in the citadel of Susa, 2 Hanani, one of my brothers, came from Judah with some other men, and I questioned them about the Jewish remnant that had survived the exile, and also about Jerusalem.3 They said to me, “Those who survived the exile and are back in the province are in great trouble and disgrace. The wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates have been burned with fire.”4 When I heard these things, I sat down and wept. For some days I mourned and fasted and prayed before the God of heaven.

Two proofs fir this are as follows: (1) Regarding niddah, we rule leniently in a case of doubt, even though we rule stringently in a case of doubtful impurity in a private domain. (2) The rule that “A single witness is believed for prohibitions” is derived from the verse [at the end of the shishi of parashas Metzora] regarding niddah, “…she must count for herself” – and we don't derive rules concerning prohibitions from laws of impurity. The advantage of this conclusion is that it's easier to (feel regret and) do teshuvah for a prohibition that a person violated, than for a matter of impurity (which is a decree that transcends reason etc.); since Hashem is full of mercy, He rules that this is a matter of prohibition. In terms of Divine service: Hashem and the Jewish people are compared to a husband and wife, and sin causes the Jewish people to become distanced from Hashem – a state of “niddah.” But the whole concept of sin and distance is a matter of “prohibition”: (1) Even though one is in a “private domain” – the domain of the Sole One of the world – nevertheless, with regards to “rendering her forbidden to her husband,” a case of doubt is decided leniently. (2) When two witnesses testify, it must be done in a Beis Din etc., whereas a Beis Din isn't required for one witness. Meaning, with regards to permitting the Jewish people to its “Husband,” Hashem doesn't require a Beis Din (from below or above) – rather, He relies on the “single witness” – the G‑dly soul within every Jew, which testifies that she is “fit for her Husband” – and therefore, Hashem provides the Jewish people with everything the Husband is obligated to provide etc.2 excerpts from farbrengen of 19 Kislev 5715.

MAKE YIDDUSHKITE GREAT AGAIN!! #dveikus #onlyYouRelistening to this I realized I forgot Kislev! Lol ! Yet it's still always exactly how it's supposed to be:)
We read in Parashat Pekudeh (40:2) of G-d's command to Moshe that the completed Mishkan should be erected on Rosh Hodesh Nissan, the first day of the month of Nissan. The Midrash tells that in truth, the artisans built the various parts of the Mishkan very quickly, and the Mishkan was ready to be assembled already earlier, on the 25 th of Kislev, a little over two months after the work began. However, Hashem decided to postpone the assembly of the Mishkan until the month of Nissan, due to the unique significance of this month. The Midrash continues that the 25 th of Kislev "protested," as it were, objecting to its having been denied the privilege of being a special day, the day of the Mishkan's inauguration. Hashem assured this day that it will be compensated – and, sure enough, many centuries later, the 25 th of Kislev became the first day of the joyous holiday of Hanukah, celebrating the Jews' miraculous triumph over the Greeks and the rededication of the Bet Ha'mikdash, which the Greeks had defiled. The day of 25 Kislev was at first denied its holiday – but it was later compensated with "interest." Whereas the first of Nissan, commemorating the inauguration of the temporary Mishkan, is not marked by a great deal of fanfare, the 25 th of Kislev became a day of great festivity observed by Jews around the world for millennia. The Midrash's comments bring to mind a different Midrashic account, regarding the fish in the Yam Suf (Sea of Reeds). When Hashem drowned the 600 Egyptian horsemen who had pursued Beneh Yisrael into the sea, the fish were overjoyed, and prepared to indulge in the robust feast that had just been presented to them. But just as they were set to eat, the bodies of the Egyptian horsemen were sent ashore. Beneh Yisrael feared that the soldiers had not drowned, but rather came ashore, and thus still posed a threat. In order to allay the people's concerns, Hashem had the sea expel the remains of the Egyptian warriors onto the shore where they were standing, so they would see them and know that their pursuers were indeed dead, and they were thus no longer in danger. The fish were, naturally, disappointed over the sudden loss of the large amounts of food that they thought they would soon be enjoying. Hashem repaid the fish years later, during the battle waged by Beneh Yisrael in the times of the prophetess Deborah against the army of Sisera. During this war, Hashem drowned the enemy's 900 chariots in the Kishon River. As compensation for having lost the 600 Egyptian horsemen – the fish were given 900 Canaanite soldiers. This is a reason given for the custom that many have to ensure to eat fish on Shabbat. Many people might have serious misgivings about closing their businesses on Shabbat, or about taking off from work, worrying about the loss of income. The fish reminds them that Hashem always repays in full – and with "interest" – for the sacrifices we make for Misvot. Whatever expense or loss we incur for the sake of a Misva is more than worth it – because we are guaranteed to receive much more than we've lost. The Gemara (Besa 15b) teaches that Hashem tells us: "My children! Borrow on My account to make the day [of Shabbat] sacred, and trust Me that I will repay." Hashem guarantees that all the money we spend for Shabbat and holidays is being charged to His account, and He will repay us in full. And, as we have seen, He not only repays the money we spend, but also gives us much more. Performing Misvot is always the greatest investment we can ever make, one which guarantees to bring us the most profitable returns.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
The holiday of Hanukah begins on the 25th of Kislev and continues for eight days. As the Gemara in Masechet Shabbat (21) relates, on the 25th of Kislev the Hashmonaim defeated the Greek oppressors and rededicated the Bet Ha'mikdash. As part of this process they kindled the Menora with the only jug of pure oil they found, and the candles of the Menora miraculously burned for eight days. The Bet Yosef (commentary to the Tur by Maran, author of the Shulhan Aruch) raised the question (in Orah Haim, 670) of why we celebrate this miracle for eight days. The Gemara clearly states that the jug contained enough oil to sustain the candles for one day. If so, then the first day's burning was not miraculous at all, and the miracle was in fact only seven days. Why, then, do we celebrate Hanukah for eight days? The Bet Yosef suggests three answers. First, he writes that the Kohanim anticipated that it would take eight days for new pure oil to arrive, so already on the first day they divided the small jug of oil into eight parts, and lit the candles with one part each day. The miracle was thus that each day, one-eighth of the jug of oil sustained the candles for an entire day, a period that normally required an entire jug. Hence, the miracle in fact spanned the entire eight-day period. Secondly, the Bet Yosef suggests that when the Kohanim entered the Mikdash each morning, they noticed that the jug remained full – even though they had used all its oil for kindling the Menora the night before. This occurred each morning for eight days, and thus the miracle was indeed an eight-day event. Finally, the Bet Yosef writes that perhaps the lamps of the Menora remained filled with oil each morning, and the miracle was thus that the oil in the lamps burned without being depleted. This, too, would account for the eight-day celebration. The holiday of Hanukah was enacted by the Sages, and thus does not have the status of a Torah obligation. For this reason, we do not add a ninth day to this holiday in the Diaspora, the way we add a day to other holidays. This extra day is observed only in conjunction with holidays established by the Torah, as opposed to the Rabbinically-ordained festivals of Hanukah and Purim. The Shulhan Aruch (Orah Haim 670:1; listen to audio recording for precise citation) writes that it is forbidden to fast or eulogize on Hanukah. Working, he writes, is permissible, though there is a custom for women to desist from working while the Hanukah candles burn (or at least during the first half-hour after they are lit). The Magen Abraham (Rabbi Abraham Gombiner, Poland, 1637-1683) explains that this custom commemorates the story of Yehudit, a Jewish woman who heroically killed a Greek general. (Some sources indicate that the story of Yehudit did not occur during the Jews' battle against the Greeks, but rather earlier, during the period of Greek oppression. Either way, her heroism is certainly worthy of commemoration on Hanukah.) By contrast, the Maharil (Rabbi Yaakov Halevi Moelin, Germany, 1355-1427) held that both men and women should refrain from work while the candles burn. The Bet Yosef explained that this practice serves to demonstrate that the candles were lit to publicize the miracle, and not for personal use. By abstaining from work while the candles burn, we show that we did not kindle them to provide light for our normal activities, but rather to commemorate the great miracle of Hanukah. Additionally, this custom helps ensure that a person spends some time reflecting on the Hanukah miracle. It is thus proper after lighting the Hanukah candles not to immediately return to one's normal affairs, but to instead sit and spend time celebrating the miracle. The Kaf Ha'haim (Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Sofer, Baghdad-Israel, 1870-1939) comments (670:10) that there are women who vow during times of danger to refrain from working while the Hanukah candles burn. Many women, he writes, have earned salvation by taking such a vow. It is thus a valuable and worthwhile custom to refrain from work while the Hanukah candles are lit, at least for some of the days of Hanukah. The Shulhan Aruch rules that there is no obligation to eat festive meals on Hanukah, since this holiday celebrates a spiritual, rather than physical, victory. The Greeks sought not to destroy the Jewish people, but rather to destroy the Jewish religion. This is as opposed to the Purim story, when Haman sought to annihilate us as a people. The physical salvation of Purim is thus celebrated through festive eating and drinking, while Hanukah is observed as a mainly spiritual victory, rather than a physical triumph. Nevertheless, some authorities write that it is admirable to have festive celebrations on Hanukah, to commemorate the completion of the Mishkan's construction in the wilderness, which took place on Hanukah. The Rama (Rabbi Moshe Isserles, Poland, 1525-1572) writes that if these meals contain words of Torah and songs of praise to God, then they certainly have the status of a "Misva meal." Of course, on Rosh Hodesh Tebet (which falls on Hanukah) one should have a special meal, just as on every Rosh Hodesh. This obviously applies to Shabbat Hanukah, as well. The Ben Ish Hai (Rabbi Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909) records a custom to light a special candle on Rosh Hodesh Tebet in memory of the famous Tanna, Rabbi Meir Ba'al Ha'nes. There is a custom to eat cheese and other dairy products on Hanukah, since Yehudit (in the incident mentioned above) fed the general dairy products which eventually led to him going to sleep, whereupon she succeeded in assassinating him.

Due to the brave actions of Rabbi Yehuda ben Bava, who defied the Roman decree forbidding semicha (ordination), the tradition of rabbinic ordination continued. Rabbi Yehuda ben Bava was killed for this act, but not before he ordained Rabbi Meir, Rabbi Yehuda, Rabbi Shimon, Rabbi Yosi, and Rabbi Elazar ben Shamoa. Rav Avia added that Rabbi Nechemia was also ordained at this time. While the story appears to suggest that one person alone could perform ordination, this contradicts a braita requiring three judges. The Gemara resolves this contradiction by explaining that two others must have been present with Rabbi Yehuda ben Bava. Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi ruled that rabbinic ordination cannot occur outside of Israel. The Gemara explores whether someone in Israel could ordain someone in Babylonia through written authorization or a messenger. The conclusion is that ordination requires the physical presence of both parties - the ordainer and the one being ordained must be together in person, as demonstrated by several stories of failed attempts at ordination on account of the distance. Rabbi Zeira initially hid to avoid ordination, believing it better to remain humble and avoid positions of power. However, upon hearing that one's sins are forgiven when rising to a position of authority, he agreed to be ordained. Regarding the egla arufa ceremony, Rabbi Shimon holds it requires three judges, while Rabbi Yehuda requires five. Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov presents a third position not mentioned in the Mishna - that the king and High Priest must also participate. Rav Yosef concludes that Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov requires the entire Great Sanhedrin to attend, supporting this with a tannatic source. While Abaye interprets this source differently, a braita is brought supporting Rav Yosef's reading. Maaser sheni whose value is unclear must be evaluated by three people. What Is meant by the term "whose value is unclear"? What kind of people can do the evaluation? The Mishna also states that evaluation of consecrated movable items requires three judges. This contradicts Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov's position requiring ten, which he derives from the word 'kohen' appearing ten times in Vayikra 27 in the section about consecrated items. The Gemara leaves unanswered the question of how the rabbis derive their requirement of three judges.

How is the calculation to determine whether or not to intercalate the year based on the equinox performed? Is it determined by the autumnal equinox or the spring equinox? Does all of Sukkot need to fall in the autumn, or is it sufficient if just one day (the last) is in the autumn season? Additionally, is the equinox considered the last day of the previous season or the first day of the upcoming season? These questions are the subject of debate among the Tannaim. How many elders are required for semicha on the bull offering? Rabbi Yehuda holds that five are needed, while Rabbi Shimon says three. From which verses in the Torah does each derive their opinion? Another braita mentions "semicha" and "semicha of the elders"—one of which is interpreted as referring to the ordination of a rabbi. From where do we derive that three judges are required, and is it truly the case that it can only be done in the presence of three?
Today's daf is sponsored by Mona Fishbane in loving memory of her beloved mother-in-law and best buddy Bernice Fishbane z”l. The decision to intercalate the year must take place after Rosh Hashanah, and the only way to do so is by adding an additional month of Adar. The year cannot be intercalated during a famine or in the Sabbatical year, as this would delay permitting the new crop to be eaten, compounding difficulties during already challenging times. There is a debate regarding the year following the Sabbatical year. This debate hinges on another discussion about whether or not one can import produce from abroad. It is prohibited to intercalate three years in a row or to decide in one year to intercalate the following year. Rabbi Yehuda and the rabbis disagree about whether the impurity of the community regarding the Passover sacrifice can be a factor in adding a leap year. A story from the time of Chizkiyahu is cited to shed light on this topic. However, there are several interpretations of the story’s details and its relevance to this issue. Shmuel maintained that one cannot intercalate the year on the thirtieth day of Adar, as that day could potentially be the first day of Nissan.

On what criteria is the decision made to intercalate the month? One of the criteria is that it needs to be done by those chosen by the Nasi. A case is brought where an uninvited individual participated, and Rabban Gamliel asked whoever was not invited to leave. Shmuel HaKatan, to avoid embarrassing the individual, took the blame upon himself. Other rabbis have also acted in similar ways in different situations to prevent causing embarrassment to others. The decision to intercalate the year requires the approval of the Nasi. When making this decision, several factors are considered, while others are not. In addition to practical concerns like roads still being wet, three primary factors are evaluated: The readiness of the new grain crop, the ripening of new fruits, and the date of the equinox. Furthermore, the majority of the three main regions of Israel—Judea, the Galilee, and Trans-Jordan—are taken into consideration. The decision to intercalate must be made during the day, not at night.
Today’s daf is sponsored by Mindy and Eric Hecht in loving memory of Dr. Charles Feldman, z”l. "He would have loved to have been part of this learning community and is surely looking down on his many family members who learn the daf with much pride. He is missed every day." Today's daf is sponsored by Naomi Oxman in loving memory of her mother, Sara "Bubaleh" Younger on her 6th yahrzeit. "We miss you much and think of you and Dad every day!" Today’s daf is sponsored by the Hadran Women of Long Island for the refua shleima to our friend and co-learner Rikki Zibbit, who is recovering from surgery. "We daven that you will continue to recuperate, and be able to use your new knee to dance at many smachot." Today's daf is sponsored by Vicky Harari in loving memory of her mother Tzipora bat Rachel. "Her persistent inner strength, resilience and eternal optimism inspire me daily." Rava teaches that self-incriminating testimony is not accepted in court, and this principle extends to testimony against one's spouse. However, this does not apply to testimony about one's possessions. There is a dispute regarding the required court size for cases involving lashes. The rabbis hold these cases require three judges, while Rabbi Yishmael requires twenty-three. Abaye explains that Rabbi Yishmael derives this through a gezeira shava (textual comparison) from capital cases. Rava, however, views lashes as a substitute for capital punishment. The term "ibur hachodesh" in the Mishna has four different interpretations. Regarding the intercalation of the year, Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel outlines a three-stage process: beginning with three judges, deliberating with five, and concluding with seven. The Tosefta Sanhedrin 2:1 elaborates on this view. Two explanations are offered for the significance of these specific numbers (3, 5, and 7).

Study Guide Sanhedrin 9 Today's daf is sponsored by Adina Gewirtz in loving memory of her father, Mel Rishe. "He loved learning, loved and served the state of Israel as a lawyer, and would be thrilled to see the learning that has flourished with Hadran." Today’s daf is sponsored by Art Gould in loving memory of Carol Robinson's father Louis Robinson, Yehuda Leib ben Moshe, z”l. “Today, the first day of Hanukkah, we mark his 25th yahrtzeit. Lou was a devoted family man and active participant in his synagogue. He could fix anything. When one of his girls was on a date, he never went to bed until she was safely home." Under what circumstances do Rabbi Meir and the rabbis debate whether a defamation case should be heard by a court of three or twenty-three judges, and what underlies their disagreement? Four additional suggestions are presented (bringing the total to eight) to address this question. Rav Yosef presents a law concerning defamation. Generally, when someone faces both capital punishment and a monetary obligation for the same act, they are exempt from the monetary payment. However, in a defamation case, there can be a situation where both penalties apply. If a husband brings witnesses against his wife, and then the father brings witnesses who prove the first group to be eidim zomemim (false witnesses), and subsequently the husband brings witnesses who prove the father's witnesses to be zomemim, the father's witnesses receive both capital punishment (for attempting to have the first group of witnesses executed) and must pay the husband (the penalty he would have owed his wife had their testimony been accepted). These dual punishments are possible because the death penalty stems from their attempt to execute the husband's witnesses, while the monetary payment relates to their attempted financial penalty to the husband himself. Rav Yosef offers a second ruling: When someone testifies against another person but incriminates themselves in the process, their entire testimony is inadmissible because they are considered a sinner, and a sinner's testimony is not accepted in court. Rava, however, disagrees. He maintains that we can divide the testimony, accepting what the witness says about others while disregarding their self-incriminating statements, since one's testimony against oneself is not legally binding for self-incrimination.
In general, a parent's tefilot on behalf of their children's success in Torah and mitzvot goes a very long way, but now, specifically on Chanukah, parents have a golden opportunity to utilize these days for extra heartfelt tefilot which count even more. The Yosef Ometz writes, as well as the Peleh Yo'etz , that right after lighting the Chanukah candles, the women should pray for their sons to be illuminated in Torah because during that time it is an et ratzon and the tefilot go straight to Shamayim . The sefer Chanukah B'Tzion writes when the parents light the Chanukah candles, they should make sure that their children are present, because each child is like a candle and when the parent lights, they are also illuminating the neshama of each child as well. There is so much kedusha at the time of hadlakat nerot and we should utilize this great opportunity on all eight nights of Chanukah. Rabbi Menachem Stein told about an episode he had on the first night of Chanukah six years ago. It was Motzaei Shabbat and when he picked up his cellphone, he saw that he had dozens of missed calls from the same number. When Rabbi Stein called back, the anonymous caller answered on the first ring. And without even introducing himself, he asked the Rabbi if he lit the Chanukah candles yet. When the Rabbi answered that he hadn't, the caller released an audible sigh of relief. Then he proceeded to share his story. Turned out he wasn't such a stranger after all. He was a close friend of Rabbi Stein's son Uriah who had passed away following an extended illness, leaving a widow and four orphans. The caller related that Uriah appeared to him in his dream on three different occasions with the same message, which went something like this. "My friend, you know that I left behind four tinokot shel bet rabban , one of whom is just taking his first step in limud haTorah . A Jewish child cannot grow without tefilot , so I am asking you to please approach my mother and implore her, in my name, to pray for her grandson that he should grow and ascend in Torah and yirat Shamayim ." With that, Uriah's image faded from his dream. This man woke up immediately after the first dream and thought to himself, it's just a dream. But then the dream repeated itself just a few days later. But again, he did not act upon it. Until it happened a third time, on lel Shabbat the 24 th of Kislev. This time, Uriah added the following message. "I am going to reveal to you a special Heavenly secret. Ask my mother to seize the et ratzon while my father is lighting Chanukah candles to pray for my children. Ask her to pray with a full and complete heart for my son's success in limud Torah and yirat Shamayim ." "This Motzaei Shabbat , Klal Yisrael will light the first Chanukah candle and, knowing my father, he will certainly light as soon as he can. I am begging you to ensure that we do not lose even one day of this auspicious time. Please call him when Shabbat is over so that my mother will be able to use this special time to pray for my son. It is up to your zerizut on this Motzaei Shabbat ." And with that he faded away. And indeed, right after that, Rav Menachem Stein related this dream to his wife who used that precious time to pray on behalf of her orphaned grandson. We can only imagine how emotional her tefila was during that candle lighting after getting that Heavenly message regarding its importance and how much of an impact it can have on a child's neshama . We as well have the exact same opportunity to pray for our children and our grandchildren to become illuminated with the great light of Torah.

Study Guide Sanhedrin 8 Today's daf is sponsored by Gila Pollack in loving memory of her mother in law, Menorah Rotenberg, Menora bat Sara Gittel v'Yechezkel, who passed away suddenly last week. "Menorah was in the first kindergarten class at Ramaz, and was upset that the girls had to learn sewing instead of Gemara like the boys. She complained to Rabbi Lookstein and was given permission to learn Gemara with the boys. This was just the start of her fighting for equality for women in Jewish life and practice. She will be greatly missed by her children, grandchildren and friends." The sages derive various laws relating to judges by analyzing the verses at the beginning of Devarim, where Moshe explains how he established the court system. A braita then introduces another matter requiring three people - zimun. Initially, the Gemara interprets this as referring to the blessing after eating, but this interpretation is rejected, and zimun is instead explained as a subpoena, which needs to state that three people decided to summon the person to the court. The Mishna states that cases involving double payment for theft must be judged by a court of three. Rav Nachman bar Rav Chisda asked: Can payment of a fine be judged by one specialist as in theft and injuries (that require three judges, but are also able to be ruled by one specialist)? Rav Nachman bar Yitzchak answers from an inference of a statement of Rav that it requires three specialists. The Mishna also presents a debate between Rabbi Meir and the rabbis regarding a defamer (one who falsely accuses his new wife of not being a virgin when they married). They disagree about whether a court of three or twenty-three should judge such a case. The Gemara explores several explanations for the root of this debate, with most explanations limiting the disagreement to specific scenarios.

Today's daf is sponsored by Rochel Cheifetz in loving memory of her father, Shragai Cohen, שרגא פייוול בן אברהם בן ציון הלוי, whose yahrzeit was 8 Kislev,and her maternal grandparents,רב משה בן יהודה לייב, whose yahrzeit was 4 Kislev and חיה צפורה בת ר׳ יהודה משה, whose yartzeit is today, 23 Kislev. "My father's smile, HUGE love for Israel and sage wisdom are sorely missed." Today's daf is sponsored by Leah Brick for the refuah shleima to her colleague and friend Jonathan Cohen הרב יהונתן איתן הכהן בן בתשבע ברכה. Today's daf is sponsored by the Hadran Women of Long Island in honor of and as a zechut for our friend and co-learner, Tzippy Wolkenfeld, Fayga Zissel bat Shayna Yosefa, בתוך שאר חולי ישראל who is donating her kidney this morning to someone she has never met. "May both Tzippy and her recipient have an easy and speedy recovery. We salute Tzippy for her willingness to literally give a part of herself to help someone - but we aren’t surprised! May her act of chessed be a zechut for all!" The Gemara delves into the different positions regarding compromise. It explains, based on the braita, that there are four different opinions about whether or not one should use/suggest compromise be used as an alternative to judgment. What should judges be conscious of when they are ruling? What responsibility do they have? What responsibility is upon the community to appoint the proper judges. What responsibility is on the litigants to prevent perversion of justice?

Today's daf is sponsored in honor of Marcel Loewenberg on his 75th birthday, with love from his children and grandchildren. “We are grateful for the joy of Torah learning you’ve instilled in us.” While Shmuel maintains that a ruling by two judges is valid, Rabbi Abahu disagrees with this position. Rabbi Abba challenges Rabbi Abahu's view from a Mishna in Bechorot 28b, which appears to validate even a single judge's ruling. This apparent contradiction is resolved by explaining that the Mishna refers to a specific case where both litigants explicitly accepted the authority of the single judge to rule on their case. The Mishna in Bechorot addresses a case where the litigants accepted a judge's authority, but he subsequently made an error in his ruling and became liable for any resulting losses. However, if his mistake involved ruling contrary to an explicit Mishna, he bears no liability since such a ruling is automatically void. Consequently, the Gemara concludes that the judge's error must have involved a matter of judgment - specifically, determining which opinion to follow. Here's the edited version with clearer structure and flow: Rabbi Meir and the rabbis dispute whether mediation requires one or three people. The Gemara initially suggests that this debate parallels the disagreement between Rabbi Abahu and Shmuel, as mediation is likened to judgment based on the verse in Samuel II 8:15. However, this parallel is ultimately rejected. Instead, their disagreement centers on whether mediation should be equated with formal judgment at all. Rav Acha explains that the requirement of Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel for two people in mediation serves only to ensure proper witnessing of the proceedings - in principle, a single mediator would suffice. Is it necessary to perform a kinyan, act of acquisition, in a mediation proceeding? Here's the edited version with better organization and flow: If judges have concluded proceedings (gmar din) in a case, they can no longer switch to mediation. Rav later provides a precise definition of what constitutes gmar din. The text then explores several fundamental questions regarding mediation and compromise: Is it merely permitted or actually preferred? Could it sometimes be forbidden? If mediation is permitted, at what stage in the legal proceedings does this option expire? Multiple opinions are presented addressing these questions. In Tehillim 10:3 it says that God scorns a botzea who blesses or one who blesses a botzea. Three different interpretations of that verse are brought - one of which relates to mediation and how it is despised by God. The Gemara also explores multiple interpretations of two other relevant verses: Samuel II 8:15, which discusses the relationship between law and charity, and Deuteronomy 1:17, which instructs judges not to fear any person. The discussion concludes with several statements emphasizing the gravity of judicial responsibility and the solemnity with which judges must approach their rulings.

It is a powerful kingdom defined by the constant need to prepare for incessant warfare against the tribes of the Chaos-worshipping Northmen on their borders. Kislev is known far and wide for having some of the greatest horsemen to ever roam the plains of the southern realms. Ruled by a mighty monarch known as a "tzar" or "tzarina," Kislev is a nation born from the saddle, its people's ancestry traced to the mighty horse-warriors of the Gospodar tribe who inhabited the Eastern Steppes for many millennia.Support the show

The kabbalists teach this secret to greater success in anything that we do: before any endeavor in the physical reality, the potential for success lies in our asking for spiritual support - in the form of angels, righteous souls, the Lightforce of the Creator - to begin (and sometimes finish) the work for us! Because everything in our world has its roots in the spiritual worlds, it's always more efficient and fruitful to start with the spiritual side. This helps us access and manifest the limitless possibilities and experience more miracles daily.Join us for the next episode of Weekly Energy Boost with @ElishevaBalas and @EitanYardeni.
