Reb Moishe Feinsteins Vort On Parshas Bechokoisai

One year an older man came to speak in the shul I daven in

He said shortly after the war he saw a sign that Reb Moishe was speaking in  a shul on the Lower East Side Of New York.

The purpose of the speech was to give chizuk to holocaust survivors who recently immigrated to New York.


Why is the Parsha of Eiruchin right after the Toichocho? What does Eiruchin have to do with the Toichocho.

Reb Moishe Zatzal Answered:

"Oib Mir Vill Shatzen Op A Yid Darf Min zen vu er halt noch er geit durch a toichecho" 

If you want to see the greatness of yid- see how he is after he went through a Toichocho.

Ameilim Batora


אם בחוקותי תלכו - שתהא עמלים בתורה

It is said in the name of R. Chaim Brisker zt"l on the Pasuk אדם לעמל יולד, " A person is (יולד) born לעמל to be עמלים בתורה. While he is in his mother's womb and the Malach teaches him כל התורה there is no עמלות בתורה, therefore, he needs to be born". 

Parshas Bechukoisai


      This week we ask from some Rabonim that they should be מוחל on their כבוד.
 
This coming Shabbos in Chutz La'aretz (only one Parsha, בחקתי) the Aliya of the Tochocho starts at שלישי.

Therefore it is preferable for the Rav to be Moichel his שלישי and take רביעי instead. (Mogen Avraham 428 :8)



..........................................................................
In a letter the Chasam Sofer wrote to R.Bunim Eiger (brother of R.Akiva E.)

He writes, he hasn't finalized his contract with the Kehilla of Pressburg to become their  Rov, because,

a) They haven't offered  an increase in salary

 for the winter months, to cover the additional firewood expense .

b) they haven't agreed to give him שלישי every Shabbos. 

(Eventually they must have settled , and he  became Pressburger Rov)

The Levaya


        
     



            The Levaya of Rashbi

 
In תלמוד בבלי the word הילולא refers to a wedding
celebration.

Chasidim & some ספרדים observe the Yahrzeit of
a צדיק by making a סעודה and call it a הילולא

They claim the Minhag of making a הילולא on 
the Yahrzeit of a צדיק is found in the    'זהר 
רצ"ו ב פ' האזינו
re the Yahrzeit of  רשב"י

However, in the זהר there is no discussion of a “yahrzeit” of Rabbi Shimon
 What the זהר actually describes is the day of his death itself—his פטירה.


The זהר describes the פטירה of רשב"י and says 
The day when רשב"י was נפטר there was a dispute between 
the אנשי ציפורי & אנשי מירון where he should be buried.
A נס happened and the מלאכים brought up רשב"י to heaven.
In שמים  they were celebrating his arrival. הילולא דרשב"י

The first מקור for making a הילולא on a Yahrzeit
of a צדיק is in the ספר חמדת הימים.


This Sefer is a controversial Sefer. Some maintain that its author was an unknown but holy individual.

The יעב"ץ & others claim the author was נתן העזתי ימ"ש
 Nathan from Gaza משיח שקר של שבתי צבי


 
יש שסוברים שהספר נכתב על ידי קדוש רק שיד זרים שלטו בו, ולכן יש שטוענים
כי אין לסמוך עליו בדברים שלא נמצאו בספרים אחרים של האריז"ל


ר'יצחק אייזיק יהודה יחיאל מיכל ספרין מקאמרנא 
 קיבל את שיטת היעב"ץ בדבר זהות מחבר הספר וכותב  
 על מחבר הספר מילים חמורות ביותר, .

 שבחי הבעל שם טוב מובא סיפור  
 קנה את הספר   מבלי דעת מי מחברו,והבעל שם טוב העיר לו כי ספר פסול על שולחנובעל התולדות 
ואז נטלו בסמרטוט וזרקו על הרצפה.

רבי יהודה פתיא בספרו מנחת יהודה ורוחות מספרות כותב
אודות מחזה שראה בחלום אודות בעל החמדת ימים,
שלפי החלום כוונתו הייתה להכשיל את כלל ישראל בהאמנה בנביא השקר שבתי צבי.
