ותשובה ותפילה וצדקה מעבירין את רוע הגזירה

צום              קול          ממון

                                                       

                    

 ותשובה  ותפילה  וצדקה

What does Tzom got to do with Teshuva ,&  Kol with Tefillah ?

What is he trying to explain Tzedakah = money?

The Rambam Hl. Teshuva brings all the ingredients for Teshuva ,(Azivas Hachet, Charata, Vidu and Kabala Al Hatid)

 and no mention of fasting.

The Gemoro says that those who think you need Kol for

Tefillah are from the small believers. Wouldn't Kavanah

be more appropriate for Tefilah?

answer:

Mavirin Roa Hagezeirah can be interpreted two ways

1) Prevents bad Gezeiros from ch”v coming.

2) Removes (rids) bad Gezeiros that ch”v  already came .

To prevent bad Gezeiros  from coming the formula is

Teshuva, Tefilla and Tzedaka

To get rid of bad Gezeiros that ch”v. came, then you

do what The Rambam writes in Hl.Taniyos .

                                 

Tzom

(א- הל' ד') ומדברי סופרים להתענות על כל צרה-       

There is a mitzvah d’Rabanan to fast                       

                                   Kol

(א- הל' א') מצות עשה מה"ת לזעוק ולהריע בחצוצרות  

 Mitzvah min Hatorah to blow trumpets & scream

to Hashem.

                                      Mammon 

     

                                                                                             (ג' הל' ד'- הל' ח') ונועלין את החניות—ממעטין במשא ומתן

                                                                                                We close the shops - reduce doing business

  

Tzom Kol Mammon is not an interpretation of

Teshuva , Tefillah , Tzedakah    but a different formula

for a different situation.
