But es chata'ai ani mazkir hayom, I don't know how you can read Reb Tzadok without banging your head on the desk. What does that mean, that Bilaam and Korach were right "kefi sitra dilei?" Is this like an "eilu ve'eilu" thing? Do we pluralist enlightened people agree that their situational moral structures were sincere and had some legitimacy, but the halacha is not like them? Reminds me of what Reb Moshe said about a cult in Russia that believed that since Moshiach won't come except in a dor shekulo zakai or kulo chayav, and kulo zakai is a pipe dream, it is best to try for kulo chayav, and they went nuts doing all kinds of aveiros. Sound good to me, though I would have to be in better shape to really enjoy it....Barzilainoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-44121529466012710242009-06-28T15:45:28.103-04:002009-06-28T15:45:28.103-04:00Is this an additional chiddush to ethics of the f...Is this an additional chiddush to ethics of the fathers Ein Davar Haomeid Bfnei harotzon? <br />Emphasis on the derech that is torah based ? <br />Where are you reading "derech hatorah"<br /><br />Are you defining molichin as assisted ? <br /><br />How did Gd affirm moshes assesment and choice. <br /><br />Does affirm ing an assesment equal assisting ? <br /><br />Who decided it was wrong. Who decided it was right. <br /><br />Why did he separate from his wife. <br /><br />Are you saying that Gd assists with whatevre it is that a person wants to d o for his sake ? <br />That makes no sense. Assist ? <br /><br />How does he assist. <br />Providing miracles for magical moments effects too. Why would he perform miracles in this context. <br />Does he actúally assist or does he just not mess with what an individual decides to do with his life. <br /><br />Lastly what about that story about the sage who was destined to be poor.when he manúfactured candles it never got dark. When he manúfactured Gravestones everyone stopped dying. <br /><br />How was Gd assisting in this case.or r you saying that the molichin , which appears to be defined as assist is only relevant on derechs that r traveled in the name of torah. Nòt livelihoods , possibly livelihood attèmpts that r made solely to be able to learn in peace. <br /><br />jaded topazAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
