DAF OF THE WEEK
The Sefer Midrash Peliah (The Puzzling Midrash ) is a compilation
of puzzling statements and riddles.
Contrary to popular belief, they
are not midroshei chazal .They
were invented by Darshonim
who made up illogical statements and then solved them.
R. Ovadyah Yosef shlita (Yechave Da’as 5-3) quotes a Midrash
Peliah and a solution
from R. Akiva Eiger zt”l
“Ein manichim tefilin ela bashabbos” You don’t put on Tefilin only on Shabbos.
The spelling of bashabbos
bais shin bais sof – Bamokom
Sa’ar
Bamokom Tafuach
Rosh is placed where there is (was) hair . Yad is placed on part
of arm where the muscles are.
The Maharsha in mehadura basra (
Shabbos 88b) explains , the pasuk in Tehilim (119 -164)
"Sheker soneisi va’asaeivoh , toiroscho ohovti". I have
hated falsehood and abhorred it,
your torah I love.
Dovid Hamelech is referring to the Darshonim who fool the public
with their lies. They
say over midrashim shekorim
(invented midrashim) and then explain
the midrash with
their lies. He only likes true Torah and not invented lies.
