Amazing Connections Between Chodesh Cheshvan and Parshas Noach

Shalom Pollack: Elections

We thought some things would definitely change after the October 7 massacres.

How could they not?

We thought that after the largest, most brutal act of murder, rape, and humiliation visited upon Jews since the Holocaust, it would jar the souls of every Jew.
We thought.

A few months ago, on Memorial Day, "Progressive" Jews in Israel commemorated the memory of our murdered brothers and sisters, together with the families of the Arab "martyrs" who murdered us.
This has become popular in "enlightened" circles.
After all, who is to judge which pain is greater?
We must never stop feeling others' pain.
Isn't that true Judaism?

If we thought this disease would be cured with the harsh medicine of Oct. 7, we were mistaken.

The progressive "alternate" Memorial commemoration challenged the official, national one

For the oh so, democratic auto-Semites in Israel, there is no longer a democratically elected government  - if it is too Jewish and not "theirs".
It follows that the national, official memorial (or any other) for Oct. 7 is also not legitimate.

We must accept the fact that there truly are no boundaries when it comes to auto-anti-Semitism, whether in NY or Tel Aviv.
It is not going away.
Hopefully they will either do "teshuva" or fully assimilate and leave our people in peace in NY; and at home, do "relocation,"  and let us get on with the job in the Jewish state.

This election touches on many issues, but it comes down to the most crucial and elemental:

Who are we?
Why are we here?
Have we really lost the ability to recognize brother from foe?

I will not recommend who to vote for, because I never get involved in politics.

May the results be a blessing for the Jews and not for our enemies.

A Great Historical Debate…..

 

New York (VINNEWS) Footage of a private conversation held by HaGaon HaRav Dov Landau, shlit”a, Rosh Yeshivas Slabodka in Bnei Brak and the senior spiritual leader of the Lithuanian Torah world in Eretz Yisroel, was broadcast on Monday by Israel’s N12 news. The remarks were made during the war in the Rosh Yeshiva’s home, in a small, closed gathering of rabbonim, and were not intended for public release.

The full context of the conversation is not known. Neither the length of the original discussion nor the questions that prompted the Rosh Yeshiva’s comments were made public.

A Long-Standing Hashkafah

In the footage, the Rosh Yeshiva, now 96, reflects on what might have been had the State not been established in its secular form. He suggests that under the United Nations, or even under Arab rule, the physical situation of the Jewish people in Eretz Yisroel might have been better. He also expresses the view that the Zionist movement contributed to Arab hostility toward Jews, and that it brought physical, not only spiritual, harm upon Klal Yisroel.

Those familiar with the history of the Torah world will recognize these themes. The concern that a secular national movement would provoke the nations, and would replace Torah with nationalism as the center of Jewish identity, was voiced by many of the leading gedolim of previous generations. Among them were the Brisker Rav and the Chazon Ish. Many trace this concern to the Gemara in Kesubos (111a), which speaks of the oaths that Klal Yisroel not ascend “as a wall” and not provoke the nations. Rav Landau’s remarks reflect that tradition. They should be understood as a hashkafic assessment, not as an expression of any warmth toward those who seek to harm Jews.

The Protective Power of Torah

The Rosh Yeshiva emphasized his conviction that the Torah learning of yeshiva students is what protects the land and its inhabitants. He noted that, in his view, there is otherwise no explanation for why enemy forces have not overrun the country. This is rooted in the Gemara in Sotah (21a), that Torah both shields and rescues, and in Bava Basra (7b–8a), which states that talmidei chachamim do not require guarding because their Torah protects them.

On Those Who Fall

The remark that drew the sharpest reaction concerned soldiers killed in battle. In the footage, the Rosh Yeshiva says that those who are killed fall “because we are not learning enough.” Read carefully, the statement is not an accusation against the fallen. It places the responsibility on the Torah community itself: “we.” This follows the teaching of Chazal (Berachos 5a) that when suffering comes, a person must first examine his own deeds. It is a call for greater Torah learning, not a judgment upon those who gave their lives.

The Rosh Yeshiva also expressed disagreement with the approach of the Religious Zionist rabbinic leadership. He suggested that some fight for the honor of the State rather than solely to save lives. This is a disagreement in hashkafah that has divided the Torah world and the Religious Zionist community for generations.

If the Robbers Save Us”

The Rosh Yeshiva also addressed the relationship between the chareidi community and the State. He used a sharp metaphor, comparing it to living among robbers who nonetheless protect those around them, and asked, “What can we do?” The remark reflects the complex reality felt by many in the Torah world: deep reservations about the secular foundations of the State, alongside a recognition that its security forces are in fact protecting them. The Rosh Yeshiva also spoke with pain about secular Israelis’ distance from Yiddishkeit. He described the establishment of a state on a secular basis as a chillul Hashem.

Reaction

The broadcast drew criticism from Israeli politicians, including opposition figures. They objected to the Rosh Yeshiva’s characterization of Zionism and to his comments regarding Religious Zionist soldiers. The timing of the release, in the midst of election season, was noted by several observers.

Rav Landau serves as the spiritual leader of Degel HaTorah, a component of United Torah Judaism, which is part of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s governing coalition. He became the senior leader of the Lithuanian Torah world after the petirah of HaGaon HaRav Gershon Edelstein, zt”l. He is revered by tens of thousands of talmidim and followers for his greatness in Torah, his humility, and his lifetime of devotion to the yeshiva world.

Readers comments:

*Rav Landau is an adam gadol who certainly does not need anyone’s haskama to voice his opinion, and we need to be careful to conduct such a discussion with the proper respect. That being said, I would agree with Educated and others who have pointed out that this is not a new issue, and that many gedolim and tzaddikim held differently. I would also add that after the Holocaust, from 1945 to 1948, there were close to half a million Jewish displaced persons in Europe, many of whom had nowhere to go and no country willing to take them in. Then, with Hashem’s help, the State of Israel was established and welcomed them with open arms. Yereim and shleimim, together with Jews of all backgrounds, danced in the streets when the state was declared. It would require quite a bit of speculation to maintain that the state of Torah and Yiddishkeit in Eretz Yisroel today would be anything resembling what it is now had the country come under Arab rule.

* Whoever leaked private conversation to secular media is surely going to pay for every single negative comment that ever surfaces. Obviously secular people don’t value the Torah and don’t understand the concept of a soul being more important than the body. It will all be misinterpreted even by many people here and that is all caused by the person who spread it first

* Rav Landau makes a completely reasonable argument.

Jews in London do not need hundreds or thousands of dead British Jews to keep Jews safe. Jews in America do not need Jewish boys dying to protect Jewish neighborhoods.

If the price of a Jewish state is that Jews must constantly die to protect Jews, then asking what exactly was gained by statehood is not absurd. It is the obvious question.


* The struggle between Zionism and Torah Jewry is not merely a political disagreement. It is one of the deepest spiritual clarifications of the final generation. It is a struggle over the very meaning of the Jewish people, the meaning of Eretz Yisroel, and the meaning of redemption.

The Torah teaches[1] that Klal Yisroel is not a nation like the nations. The Jewish people were not created by land, language, army, government, or culture. Klal Yisroel was created by Hashem at Har Sinai. Its existence is bound to Torah. Its mission is kedushah. Its future is Geulah. Therefore, whenever Jewish identity is separated from Torah and redefined as secular nationalism, the foundation of Jewish existence is distorted.
The land of Eretz Yisroel is holy beyond measure. Yerushalayim is the heart of the world. The Beis HaMikdash is the place of the Shechinah. Every loyal Jew yearns for the return to Zion and prays daily for the rebuilding of Yerushalayim. But the holiness of Eretz Yisroel cannot be separated from Hashem. The land is not an ordinary homeland. It is the palace of the King. To enter the palace while rejecting the King is not redemption.
This is the root of the Torah opposition to secular Zionism. The opposition is not to Eretz Yisroel. It is not to Yerushalayim. It is not to Jewish life in the land. Torah Jews lived in Eretz Yisroel long before modern Zionism. They built batei midrash, kollelim, communities of kedushah, and a life of tefillah and yearning. The opposition is to the ideology that took the holy longing for Geulah and changed it into political nationalism.
Modern Zionism arose in the atmosphere of European nationalism. Theodor Herzl, the founder of political Zionism, organized the First Zionist Congress in Basel in 1897 and presented the Jewish question as a political problem requiring a political state. This was the essence of the new ideology: Jewish suffering would be solved not by teshuvah, Mashiach, Torah, and Divine redemption, but by sovereignty, diplomacy, settlement, and national power. From the Torah view, this was not Geulah. It was a replacement for Geulah.

* Jewish men have been full time learners since the very beginning. Does anyone believe Reb Dovid the Shoemaker, Reb Chaim the Butcher or Reb Zanvil the Carpenter ever worked?


* Rabbi Dr. Joseph Ber Soloveichik stated that the founding of the State of Israel is responsible for the massive increase in Arab hate of Jews.

Noam HaShabbos: The Ultimate Experience

 

Rabbi Miller zt"l – Parshas Beraishis: Perfection in Paradise

Wisdom from Toras Avigdor and Rabbi Avigdor Miller zt”l

Parshas Braishis:  Perfection in Paradise



[...] That’s what Reish Lakish tells us about the Next World. 

He comes along with a chiddush that…….– 

in the Afterlife, there is no especial thing called Gehinnom 

(Avodah Zarah 3b). Now, nobody should be relieved 

when they hear that, because Reish Lakish is going to 

tell us of a big fiery Gehinnom, only it’s not what we think.


What’s going to be? -


Hakadosh Baruch Hu will take the sun out of its sheath, 讜ּ诪ַ拽ְִ讚ִּ讬专

– and it will shine very powerfully. The sun, you have to know,

is encased in a big sheath. You never see the sun. Take a look

tomorrow through smoky glasses. You think you see the sun?

What you see is a very thick envelope of gases — melted,

vaporized metals — around the sun.


But the sun itself you cannot see. And you're lucky, 

because if the sun would be revealed, the heat would come 

through overpoweringly. We are protected against the 

direct rays of the sun by this sheath.


That's what the Gemara says.


But in the Afterlife, Hakadosh Baruch Hu takes the sun out

of its sheath and He lets it shine. And,…….– the

reshaim will suffer from it, ……..– while the

tzaddikim are going to be cured; they're going to feel 

beneficia effects from that heat


And we’ll understand this as follows. 


In the Afterlife, it’s not temperature that counts, 

it’s knowledge that counts. In the World to Come, 

the light of the truth will be taken out of its sheath of 

falsehood that conceals the truth in this world,

and then everybody will see what's what. 

And that knowledge can be the most 

delectable ecstasy — and it also can be the

greatest, the most excruciating pain.


When Hakadosh Baruch Hu shows the light of the 

truth to us when we leave this world, so the reshaim 

will see how they have ruined their opportunity. 

They’ll see how wonderful this world was, 

how good it was to be born. “How happy I could

have been…………


And the reshaim forever and ever will be sorry.......

– They’ll be full of regret. Oh! In that place where they

spoke about these things, they were right?! Those ideas that I

smirked at, that I thought weren’t important? Oy vey!

“Oh! Why didn’t I realize I was in a Gan Eden? All my life I

was walking blindly.”


But the tzaddikim, the ones who fulfilled this first mitzvah,

when they’ll see the true light that Hashem will show them,

they’ll be happy. Ah! They’ll see the truth, how they were

correct in utilizing their lives,…………


Two Mitzvos of Gan Eden


So you have two things to do in Gan Eden, ….… In

our Gan Edens we have to work. And it’s a very big subject

we’re talking about now because that’s the purpose of life. 

All of the happiness that Hashem gives us is for the 

purpose of working. It’s the first mitzvah! We’re 

commanded to dedicate our lives to this function of 

maaseh Elokim. – Look. Study it. 

And the second is– don’t spoil it.


Why isn’t this in the seven mitzvos bnei Noach? 

When you look at the list, it doesn’t include these two.


Many Mitzvos not written in the Chumash


Rabbeinu Nissim Gaon explains that (Hakdamah to Shas). 

He said there are many mitzvos, but the mitzvos that your 

own mind is mechayev you, that Hakadosh Baruch Hu 

doesn’t have to tell you. Don’t we find in the Chumash 

that many of the kadmonim were punished for doing 

wrong things they were never warned not to do? 


How could you punish a man without a warning?

– You can’t punish unless you warn him (see Sanhedrin 56b).


So Rabbeinu Nissim says, –

whatever depends on havonas halev is a chiyuv to do. 

Hakadosh Baruch Hu demands you should do them 

and there is a responsibility for not listening to your seichel.


People don’t know that. Many mitzvos we’re mechuyav in

that are not written in the Chumash. We’ll speak about that

one day. Very many things! And these two are the first on that

long list of mitzvos of the seichel. Hakadosh Baruch Hu is

talking to each one of us:…… See all the details that 

Hashem is giving you in Gan Eden.

[...] Always keep before your eyes the words of the Gemara in Tractate Yoma (86a) regarding the commandment "And you shall love the Lord your God": that the Name of Heaven should become beloved through you. This is achieved by studying Scripture and Mishnah, serving Torah scholars, and conducting one’s business dealings gently and pleasantly with others. What do people say about such a person? "Fortunate is the father who taught him Torah; fortunate is the teacher who taught him Torah. Woe to those who have not studied Torah—look at this man who has studied Torah; see how pleasant his ways are, how refined his deeds."
But above all, strengthen yourselves—within your own hearts and within the community—and strengthen one another. Thank God, all members of the community are distinguished Torah scholars, God-fearing and sin-fearing individuals. Always hold fast to the legacy you received in the Yeshiva; everything is built upon a single foundation: love, brotherhood, peace, and friendship—standing together, even when there are differences of opinion. This is the tradition, and this is how we must continue; it is the foundation and root of all that is good. Everything is built upon this, and it benefits every aspect of life—relationships between man and God, between man and his fellow, and between a person and himself. Everything rests on the existence of love, brotherhood, peace, and friendship. There may be differences of opinion—one person says this, another says that, and one can debate and argue seriously—but the fundamental basis is remaining together as one united group. This is the tradition; this is how you shall continue, passing it on to your children after you. This is the foundation—love, brotherhood, peace, and friendship constitute the basis.
I have heard that my friend, the synagogue’s rabbi—the brilliant scholar Rabbi Zvi, *shlita*—has urged the congregation to study the laws governing the synagogue. While the Rabbi requires no formal endorsement, it is absolutely clear that we must strengthen our observance in this regard—upholding the laws concerning the sanctity and honor of the synagogue, down to their finest details and nuances.
May the Almighty assist us—along with the multitudes of the House of Israel—in averting all harsh decrees. The entire Torah world currently faces a fateful, existential struggle; this is no ordinary battle—it is a battle for the Torah itself! It is a battle for those who study the Torah! We must not treat this matter lightly. May it be His will that we merit Divine assistance, enabling us to continue our in-depth study with even greater intensity—fully immersed and engaged in our learning, rather than merely skimming the surface.
May the Lord our God bestow upon us the blessings of His appointed festivals—blessings of life and peace. May we soon merit the coming of our righteous Messiah and the rebuilding of the Holy Temple in our time; there, we shall ascend, appear, and bow down during the three pilgrimage festivals, offering our obligatory sacrifices—the *Tamid* offerings in their proper order and the *Mussaf* offerings in accordance with the law. Amen.

Rav Moshe Hillel Hirsch's Fiery Warning: "We Are Losing Heavenly Protection!" ⚠️


A rare, historic, and deeply stirring address: Maran Rosh HaYeshiva, HaGaon HaRav Moshe Hillel Hirsch Shlit"a, one of the foremost leaders of the Jewish world today, delivers an unprecedented emergency warning regarding the grave spiritual and physical state of the Jewish nation. Speaking at a special gathering during Sukkot before the leaders of the Degel HaTorah movement—including MK Yaakov Asher and MK Yitzhak Pindrus—the Rosh Yeshiva expressed immense, heartfelt concern:
"In all my years living in the Land of Israel, there has never been a situation as dire as today... The entire world is against us, and even the majority of Americans are no longer with us. God forbid, if a war breaks out and we need American aid, they might refuse! We desperately need Siyata Dishmaya (Heavenly Assistance)."
Maran Shlit"a forcefully addressed the spiritual root of this crisis, warning: "The lack of Heavenly protection we are experiencing comes directly from the rise and strengthening of the political Left. Their rise distances divine grace, and we must do everything within our power to stop them, cast aside personal grievances, and unite with total dedication to strengthen the Torah world."
Watch this dramatic, uncut 6-minute address that is sending shockwaves throughout the Jewish world. 馃摙 * "We are on a global mission to spread the light and wisdom of the Gedolei HaDor (Torah Giants) to every Jew worldwide! 馃實 Coming soon: Rare, never-before-seen historical footage of our Torah leaders!

Rom Braslavski was kidnapped on October 7th and held hostage in Gaza for 738 days. In this powerful conversation, he shares how he found God in a tunnel in Gaza, the miracles he saw with his own eyes, the torture he survived, why he says part of his soul is still there, and the chilling warning Hamas gave him about what is coming next.

The letter from Maran the Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi M.H. Hirsch was read by MK Yitzhak Pindrus, while MK Yaakov Asher, Chairman of United Torah Judaism, presented the campaign's message at the gathering.

 The Letter:


The eminent Rabbi Yehuda Silman—Head of the Rabbinical Court—addressed a gathering of dozens of rabbis at the Bnei Brak home of the generation's leading halachic authority, Rabbi Yitzchak Zilberstein. Speaking about the campaign waged by the Left and the Attorney General against the ultra-Orthodox community, he stated: "They are openly declaring their desire to dismantle our society. We must all realize that we are fighting to ensure our children and grandchildren continue to observe the Torah and its commandments. They also label us 'parasites' who consume others' budgets; yet, one must understand that while the Ministry of Education’s budget is 100 billion, less than 4 billion goes to the ultra-Orthodox sector—despite us constituting approximately 30% of the student population."
