PARSHAS ZOCHOR COMPENDIUM

Poskim hold that שומע כעונה works only if you understand what is being verbalized. Therefore it is preferable לכתחילה to understand the פירוש המלות of every word in פרשת זכור, Rashi has 3 translations of the word אשר קרך בדרך  A) 1) מקרה          - happened - coincidence  2) קרי וטומאה  - made them טמא with משכב זכר  3) קור             - cooled them off     B) ויזנב בך כל הנחשלים אחריך - And he struck those of you who were hindmost, all the weaklings at your rear (Artscroll) C) ולא ירא אלקים- refers to עמלק and not to the בני ישראל -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Harav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach ZT"L  said in jest that  פרשת זכור has קולות שאין הציבור יכול לעמוד בה We assume all kind of חומרות and can't handle any קולות. _____________________________________________ חידה זכר זכר או זכר ולא זכר ---------------------------------------------------------------- The מהר"ם שיק מצוה תר"ה  writes, Those years where the following year will be a שנה מעוברת (leap year), The חתם סופר would be יוצא the Mitzvah of זכירת מחיית עמלק twice. The second time when they leined the  Parshas Hashavua of כי תצא. The reason was, according to the Gemoro, people forget after 12 months. Therefore we have פרשת זכור once a year, not to be עובר the לאו of "לא תשכח".    So as not to have from one פרשת זכור to the following one, more than 12 months, the חת"ס made sure (in a leap year) to have כוונה to be יוצא the Mitzva at the קריאה of the Parshas כי תצא and again on פרשת זכור.   It is interesting, in the תשובות (E.H. 1: 119), the Chasam Sofer writes that "In a leap year, Hashem changes the human nature and it takes 13 months to forget instead of 12 months. ------------------------------------------------------------------ וישמע הכנעני מלך ערד ישב הנגב *     Rashi explains that it was actually עמלק who was ישב הנגב but disguised himself, by speaking in the language of  כנען so to confuse the Yidden when they will Daven to Hashem to save them f rom the enemy כנען instead of עמלק Since they  wore Amaleiki clothing the Yidden realized something doesn't make sense and Davend without mentioning any name of the enemy.   The קליר in the פיוט of Shabbos פרשת זכור writes זכור יושב הנגב בלי על כערד כסות ולשון שנה Seems that the קליר holds (unlike Rashi) that he changed both, his clothing and also his language. The (מהרש"א (ר"ה ג ע"א  claims, we can say that the קליר & Rashi are not arguing. The meaning of  כסות ולשון שנה is that the כסות didn't match the לשון  since he wore Amaleiki clothes and spoke Kanani language. (like Rashi) *Bamidbar 21:1            --------------------------------------------------------------------------                             פתח גנובה When being מוציא the עולם with פרשת זכור many Ashkenazi  בעלי קריאה try to pronounce the letter ע like the Sephardim (sound comes from deep inside the throat) Some are unaware that the  ע of ויגע, since it has a פתח גנובה*  therefore even Sephardim pronounce it like an א and not like an  ע *Words that end with a ה-ח or ע, and there is a פתח under them then the last syllable is not pronounced, instead we add ( pronounce)  a  פתח א before the last letter.  eg: נח has a פתח under the ח. We don't  pronounce it NOCHA but  the correct pronunciation is NOACH -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                              ONLY ONCE A YEAR  אחינו בני עדות המזרח (Sefardim)  don't say יוצרות not on Yomim-Noraim, Yamim-Tovim or on The Arba Parshios. The only exception is on Shabbos Parshas זכור.  These יוצרות are called "מי כמוך". It starts with the Piyut of R.Yehuda Halevi "אדון חסדיך" The ספר סדר הדורות writes, When R. Yehudah Halevi wrote the Piyut "אדון חסדיך." he took a break at the Stanza of the letter ר (Reish). The Ibn Ezra passed by and continued on his own the Stanza on the letter ר. R.Y.Halevi was so impressed with the stanza that he left it in the Piyut and continued on. He also took him as a son-in-law as a result of this. Hence, the two stanzas for the letter ר.

What was Haman Ben Hamdasa's father's name?

answer:

The ירושלמי יבמות פ"ב ה"ו says, בן המדתא does not mean
the son of המדתא
It means המן, the evil person, a descendant of
Hamdasa, the evil person, who lived about 13
generations before המן.
Between the various נוסחיות in מס' סופרים פי"ג & the
תרגום שני we have 4 possible names for Haman's 
father כוזא - ביזא- סרח- סדא

What was Haman Ben Hamdasa's father's name?

Did You Know

*According to the רמב"ם the מצות זכירת מחיית עמלק
is not a מצוה דאורייתא בזמן הזה 

The רמב"ם in ספר המצות at the end of מצות עשה enumerates 60 מצות ההכרחיות (obligatory Mitzvos)

applicable to all, in all places and all times (בזמן הזה)

מצוה קפ"ט the מצות זכירת מחיית עמלק is not one of
the 60 מצות because the רמב"ם holds that
it is not (נוהג בזמן הזה (מדארייתא

Maid in heaven

R Nosson Adler Zt"l  insisted that even the maids (Jewish) should go to Shul to listen to Parshas זכור Why would we think that women who wash the dishes and clean the floors should be less obligated than other women to perform Mitzvohs?  Answer: In Western European countries, especially Germany, almost all women went to Shul every Shabbos. The younger children were left behind with the Nanny/maid. Even lower-income households afforded maids etc. R.N. Adler didn't say that מצות זכירת מחיית עמלק is applicable also to maids.  All he said was, that even the maids who usually don't go to Shul need to go this week so that they will be יוצא the מצוה. אמבצי                                                    שו"ת בנין ציון החדשות
